DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Valmet 505 tractor offers a robust 2WD configuration with a wheelbase of 92.9 inches, ensuring stability in various terrains, while a 4WD option provides enhanced traction with a slightly shorter wheelbase of 90.6 inches. Weighing between 7760 to 8488 pounds, its substantial mass can enhance ground grip but may limit mobility in softer soils. The specified tire sizes (10.00-16 front and 13.6-38 rear) support good load distribution, making it suitable for agricultural tasks but necessitating caution on steep slopes due to the rollover risk associated with narrower wheelbases.
