Farmall M with a loader and wide ft. and i am assuming that the rears are loaded and amybe some wheel weights i am guessen that one would tip the scales at over 7500 . Never go by shipping weight on any equipment . my 806 diesel narrow ft. fast hitch with loaded 18.4 x34 with out me on it is 11500 then throw a 1000 on the nose and three or four sets on the wheels and now you are pushen close to 14000 . My 1486 is real close to 20000 loaded , my buddys 1066 is at 16000 loaded for plowen . I have hauled tractors and equipment for manyyears and i have never went with shippen weight as going by that will get ya in trouble at the weigh stations , But honist Officer the book said it only weighed in at ------- and there ain't noway that it can weigh in at ------- . Like the 1570 Case i hauled for a guy he did not tell me that it had 30.5x32 on the back loaded and that it did have two ton of weight on the nose plus the two sets of 500 lb. weights on each rear wheel , talk about and ingot that tractor had to weigh in at 30000 behind a F350 Ford on a tandem dual trailer . I am here to tell ya that thing pulled hard DOWN HLL.
