ZETOR 3522 TIRES
The Zetor 3522 features a compact design, which enhances maneuverability in tight agricultural spaces, essential for small to medium-sized farms. The front tires (6.00-16) provide good traction for steering and load handling, while the rear tires (12.4-28) support stability and weight distribution for plowing and tilling tasks. A challenge may arise in demanding terrain; the limited tire size may not provide optimal flotation on soft soil, potentially affecting productivity in wetter conditions.

DIMENSIONS
DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Zetor 3522 tractor, weighing 3,800 lbs, offers a balanced weight distribution for stability during field operations. Its front tires (6.00-16) provide agile maneuverability, while the larger rear tires (12.4-28) enhance traction on uneven terrain. However, the relatively low weight may limit performance in heavy-duty tasks; scenarios requiring substantial drawbar pull or plowing may necessitate additional ballast for optimal efficiency.
