Actual pulling power?

Lazy WP · Oct 10, 2016

I have both an 800 and a COM 830. The 830 has 16.9-34s that are dry but has weights hanging on it. I think 2 sets. The 800 tires are 15.5-38s and are loaded. Now the 800
has a F 11 Farmhand loader on it, but before, I swear the 800 would out pull the 830 traction wise. The tires on the 830 might have a bit more tread, but not much. PTO,
the 830 is hands down more horse. So give me your opinions.

If by out-pull, you mean the 830 was spinning out sooner, I believe it because of the smaller diameter 34" tires. They have a smaller contact patch than the 38's. Less grip so more prone to breaking traction, especially if the 830 has more power than the 800.

You are pulling them both in the COM mode? Do they both weigh the same or close to the same? The 800 out pulls the 830 because you have the weight of the loader out in front , it has a lot of leverage, down force.
p.s. You can't beat COM for starting heavy loads, but it is a real PITA when doing pto work. (just had to say that)
