How to increase the traction of tyres

• Proper Inflation: Ensure your tyres are inflated to the correct pressure. Under-inflated tyres can cause excessive wear while over-inflated tyres reduce contact area with the graound.
• Ballasting: Adding weight to your tractor can help improve traction.
• Tyre chains: for operation on slippery or muddy terrain, tyre chain can provide addition grip.
• Dual wheels: installing dual wheels can increase the contact area with the ground, thus improving traction
• Tyre siping and growing: cutting additional slits or grooves in the tyre treads can improve traction, especially in wet or icy conditions
• Choosing the right tyres improves traction
• Driving at low speed
• Using sand. Gravels, stone or dry soil under the tyres on slippery
• Putting heavy substance on the hind boot.
