Just something I have wondered about for the last 10 years (no joke).
Why are the tires on my Schaben 1000 gallon sprayer put on backwards? I�ve notived that all of the ag tread sprayer tires are always put on to rotate the tread backwards. I know the old pull manure spreaders had them backwards to get some grab and help them not slide with a load. So why do they do it on something that merely rolls?
They even have a direction arrow of rotation (I assume they could fit some kind of high crop tractor or something) and they are still mounted backwards. You don�t move hub/wheel placement to get row crop widths - the square tube axle itself will slide out, so it�s not like you would shift them side to side to change tread widths. The rims only mount this one way and they were done purposely. It�s not the only one like it in the area - they are all like that. I always figured there must be a reason that I wasn�t smart enough to see. They are starting to get a little weather checked. Guess I better have the Coop mount them backwards.

This was due to the new 4-cylinder "Power Crater" gasoline engine with a 4 x 4-1/2 inch bore and stroke. Some people feel this was one of the most significant tractors offered by Allis-Chalmers in those days. Nothing in its weight or power class could match its performance. In 1954 they began offering the WD45 with the new "Snap-Coupler&quo
