Answer my e-mail and I'll send you a page that tells how to do it. I my self use a drill pump to pump tire full of fluid

(quoted from post at 19:38:04 08/03/15) But how do you get it in? I have tubes in my tires, so how do you hook up to them?

adapter with air bleed-off sold wherever tractor parts are sold. I got mine from Gempler's
 
I too have the adapter that will let air out of the tube and connects to a garden hose. I have a tank that I hang up above the tractor on a rafter (you can use a tree or whatever as long as it's above) then I let it gravity feed. I have enough tractors that I won't need to use that tractor when I'm filling the tires. A pump will work fine, I just don't have one & this works for me and it's cheap. I believe I have all of my tires filled with windshield washer fluid. Keith
 
you need a fluid fill adapter. napa has the milton s 466 kit. i use a 12volt sprayer pump, but, like old said, you can go to home depot and get an inexpensive drill pump attachment. i load with calcium chloride, at 5 lbs per gallon rate. i have a 100 gallon poly tank i mix the calcium and water in. the solution gets very hot when you mix it, so let it cool down before pumping it in the tire. i fill about 75% full, so when the valve stem is at the 12 oclock position, you have air there. for example, on a 13.6x38 tire, you need 46 gallons of water, 230 lbs of cqalcium chloride, will give you 614 lbs of ballast. also it is slush free to -53 degrees F,
 
Spend an extra $6 and get this one from Gemplers. You'll be glad you did. With this one the air comes out as the fluid comes in.

I forgot to mention, I like to get my tire valve at about 10 or 2 oclock. I know some people like to fill theirs fuller, but I like to keep a little room in my tires. Don't know which is right but it's worked for me for a long time. Keith
