Moving Heavy Loads, Tire Pressure and the Actual Lift Capacity of Your Tractor

A practical, experience-based explainer on safely moving near-capacity loads with a front-end loader. Mike uses a real job, hauling out a large root ball on sloped ground, to walk through the pin vs. 500mm-forward lift capacity distinction, why front tire pressure matters, when to lock four-wheel drive, and the drop-it-fast safety habit. Best for newer owners learning the limits of their loader.

Tractor Mike is a longtime tractor-industry insider with decades of hands-on experience in the equipment business. He built his channel to help first-time and rural buyers make confident decisions, and his guidance comes from that deep, long-term background rather than a sales pitch.
