HOW TO OPTIMIZE TRACTION AND FLOTATION – SPONSORED BY MAXAM

When optimized on your Ag tires, traction and flotation bring out the best in your tractors, sprayers, and harvesters. Here’s three key optimization tips to minimize soil compaction and boost performance:

Check tire pressure – depending on load and field conditions, lowering pressure increases flotation while higher pressure improves road performance.

Use slip meters – too much pressure? Lower it or add ballasts. Too little? Increase or remove weights.

Balance load distribution – adjust gross flat plate (GFP) for proper front-to-rear balance.
