DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Farmtrac 550DTC, with a weight of 4,610 lbs (2,091 kg), offers a robust platform for moderate agricultural tasks, providing stability and traction, especially with its larger rear tires (12.4-28), ideal for pulling heavier loads. However, the front tires (8.3-20) may result in limited flotation in softer soils, which could present challenges in muddy conditions or for intensive tillage operations. For optimal performance, ensure proper tire pressure and consider potential ballast adjustments based on the specific tasks at hand to enhance soil interaction and overall efficiency.
