Can anyone tell me the total weight of a CK 27-35 with a loader and tires filled?

The tractor (CK27) is 3161 lbs. The FEL weighs 811 lbs. So, that's 3972 lbs. combined. I'm not sure what filled tires weigh. I guestimate about 250 lbs. per tire. So total weight would be somewhere around 4472 lbs.

If I remember correctly, the tractor is 3150lbs and the loader with bucket is close to another 600lbs. 75% filled tires with water is 50lbs each front and 240 lbs each rear. 3.5% calcium is 60 front and 294 rear. 5% calcium is 67 front and 320 rear. These loaded tire weight numbers come from a Goodyear handbook. Members have used washer fluid and some tire shops have beet juice fluid. Not sure how they compare to calcium but I imagine a split between the water weight and 3.5% would be close. From the above numbers, you'd have 4330, 4458, and 4524 respectively. I hope this gives you a rough idea.

I didn't know the fel was that much. I just saw it on Kioti's site.

Arrow, add 200lbs to my weights.

Ok thanks much. I need a small tractor for these dense NewEngland woods that would pull out 3000# of stems at a time. My current rig only does 2000# because it weighs in at 3100# with the loader and filled and chained ag tires.

The loaded tire weights were for R4 tires. I believe R1 ags would be a little less. Maybe 10%. I can check the Goodyear tire handbook if you needed a closer weight.

Thank you Vic for your help. Loaded ags are close enough at 10%. Just needed to get a smaller compact tractor to reach 4000#
