If you notice unusual tractor tyre wear, this may be an indication of a problem with your implement settings. After having checked air pressure and tractor tyre alignment, if everything seems in order, the problem may be linked to your tooling, so you should check your implement settings in relation to your tractor. To avoid this type of problem, you must always respect the overall coherence...
Preserving your soil by avoiding excess compaction is a good strategy to secure future yields. To prevent compaction you know that you should work at low pressure, and having referred to the manufacturer recommendations you see that you can reduce the inflation pressure in your standard tyres. However, working at low pressure means that there are more rules to follow so that you do not transform...
Changing a set of tyres represents a significant investment, so you are entitled to wonder why your tyres do not last as many hours as you expected. It is quite easy to make a critical judgement on the brand of tyre, considering that it’s a question of product quality. However, the number of hours that tyres can last depends on production quality of course, but more often it is a question of the...
While certain factors such as the climate or the weight of your tractor are beyond your control, soil preservation on the other hand is something you can more or less manage, if you decide to work at low pressure. This is a good way of improving your yields.However, to do this you will need to take into account certain limits which are linked to the characteristics of your tyres. As the main...
There are numerous elements that are likely to cause wear to your tractor tyres or puncture them. Stubble from certain crops may easily wear, damage or puncture your tyres during harvesting or stubble ploughing. This is not a systematic problem but rather a frequent problem for which there are simple solutions that you can adopt to avoid breakdowns. Corn stubble, for example, can cause major...
There are many technical notions concerning your agricultural tyres that are worth knowing and understanding, because they can help you improve the quality of your work and your yields. One such notion is the loaded radius, which designates the distance from the centre of the tyre and the ground. The shorter the distance, the better the traction, the more you preserve your soil and the less fuel...
Your existing implements have a pre-defined weight which you cannot change, and if you buy new implements they will logically be bigger to improve productivity and therefore certainly heavier. If you cannot modify the weight of each implement, you will have to compensate for this load by increasing the air pressure in your tyres. This is the usual choice that is made with standard tyres,...
There are many possible reasons that cause your agricultural machinery to vibrate, one of them being your tyres. These natural vibrations linked to the form of the lugs can either be very slight and without consequence if all the settings are correct, or really problematic if they lead to an increase of the tractor vibrations which is felt strongly in the cab. Furthermore, abnormal vibration of...
To win more customers you have to offer more than what a farmer can do alone, provide better quality, quick service, in short, a highly professional service. You know that the difference can easily be made by the quality of your equipment; with machines that are more recent and more powerful than average you will be able to draw wider implements and complete more operations in less time. Tyres...
