He does the math live, overloads it, watches the rear end lift off the ground, then removes bags to find where it actually balances. Useful for buyers wanting a hands-on gut check on advertised lift specs versus real tractor weight and ballast.
Appears to be an owner-operator testing their own tractor on their own property, with no dealership or sales angle evident.
The hydraulics could handle it, but with only a backhoe as rear ballast the back end lifted off the ground before reaching the full rated load.
It carried 2,400 pounds, which was 40 bags of 60-pound Quikrete, without the rear end lifting off the ground.
Not enough weight on the rear tires, not the hydraulics; the owner notes this shows the need for more ballast in back.
