If the ground is that soft, it's a good time to roll it
I bought L4701 with R4 tires no liquid in tires. I have BH and a Ballast box 1270 lbs that’s QH compatible.I would rather add weight when I need it I use tractor a lot in areas I mow ruts I keep to a minimum. I’ve pulled 6 ft box blade full of NC red dirt no problem of course dry ground stay off wet ground as others mentioned.I recently just purchased a new 48hp HST TYM. About to have it delivered to get started. They did a nice job of getting me talked into beet juice in back tires as it helps with loader work, and i'll be doing a lot of that. Also, I'll be doing a lot of field work (planting, cultivating) AND landscaping around my house. The guys told me last week the extra weight will leave very deep grooves everywhere. Now I'm thinking I should have NOT had the beet juice add instead of a removable ballast or leave box blade on back when loader work. Thoughts or suggestions? I could in theory ask them to pump out the juice, lol.
I would think that the beet juice would be a little better pushing snow with the with bucket or a snow plow and allow having a grader blade on the back to finish it off. (At least on flat ground) A ballast box is useful only as ballast.I bought L4701 with R4 tires no liquid in tires.

Yes I agree I don’t get plowable snows where I’m at in NC.I would think that the beet juice would be a little better pushing snow with the with bucket or a snow plow and allow having a grader blade on the back to finish it off. (At least on flat ground) A ballast box is useful only as ballast.
Without weight loaders are inherently dangerous. It only takes a small misjudgment of the degree of steepness of a hill and over you go. Don’t ask me how I know this. Never quite over, but close calls. Would have been avoidable if I had taken the time to put the weight box on the three point hitch.I recently just purchased a new 48hp HST TYM.
