The front end has nearly 400 lbs of counter weight out front around 15 inches off the ground. So it is a pretty low slung tractor to tip. I can lock one rear wheel and pivot on the other one with the disk brakes or use the Differential Lock on the rear for added pulling power going straite. It tends to get around pretty good on the hills. Mark H.
