What is the Foton Rear Ballast Assembly

  • Optimized Technical Description: Foton Rear Ballast Assembly
  • The Foton Rear Ballast Assembly provides essential counterweight at the rear of compatible Foton tractors. Primarily used to optimize balance when operating heavy front-mounted implements (e.g., loaders, front mowers, snow blowers), this assembly enhances traction, stability, and steering control by increasing weight over the rear drive axle. Here’s a detailed breakdown:
  • 1. Core Counterweight Component:
  • Rear Ballast: The primary heavy mass, typically a large cast iron or concrete weight block. This is the main element adding downward force over the rear wheels to counteract the weight and leverage of front-mounted equipment.
  • 2. Dedicated Mounting Hardware:
  • Rear Ballast Screw I: A specific large-diameter screw or threaded stud designed for the primary attachment points, securing the ballast block directly to the tractor’s rear ballast mounting points or drawbar frame.
  • Rear Ballast Screw Ⅱ (Dual): Additional large-diameter screws or studs used at secondary or supplementary attachment points, ensuring the heavy ballast block is rigidly fixed from multiple angles. Their dual mention indicates critical usage in multiple locations.
  • 3. Securing & Vibration Resistance:
  • Bolt: May be used in conjunction with or instead of screws at specific attachment points, or for securing auxiliary brackets related to the ballast mounting.
  • Nut (Multiple): Threads onto the Rear Ballast Screw I and Screw Ⅱ ends to clamp the ballast block securely against the tractor mounting points.
  • Spring Washer: Used under the Nuts. Its primary function is to act as a locking device, applying constant spring tension to resist nut loosening caused by tractor vibration and shock loads during operation.
  • Washer (Multiple): Flat washers placed under Nuts and potentially under screw/bolt heads. They distribute the clamping load evenly across the ballast block surface, prevent damage to the softer material of the ballast, and ensure consistent fastener tension.
  • The Foton Rear Ballast Assembly is crucial for maintaining safe operating balance with heavy front attachments. Its robust Rear Ballast weight block is securely fastened using specialized high-load Screws (I and Ⅱ), locked in place with Nuts and Spring Washers to combat vibration. Flat Washers protect the ballast and ensure even load distribution. This system significantly improves rear wheel traction, prevents front-end instability (like rear wheel lift), and ensures precise steering control, enhancing safety and productivity during loader work, material handling, or other demanding front-mounted operations.
