When this condition occurs in larger 4WD or MFWD tractor(s), it causes a lot of frustration to farm operations including loss of time and fuel. NTS Tire Supply recently released an excellent PTK /Practical Traction Knowledge™ video explaining in detail on how to fix Power Hop. We at EnviroTech Services are a proud supplier of Bio-Ballast® to NTS Tire Supply and share in the philosophy of knowledge transfer and education of our customers. Check out this video and see why Bio-Ballast® is the Solution for Power Hop.
