This SAE Standard gives the specifications and dimensions for the assembly and clearances common to hydraulically-operated cylinders and to trailing-type farm implements. The specifications given permit the interchangeability of hydraulic operation between tractors equipped with a cylinder and trailing-type implements designed for this purpose, the tractor possessing enough power at its drawbar to operate the implement; and the transference of the hydraulic cylinder from one implement to another. This document applies to three categories of agricultural tractors, as follows in Table 1:
This SAE Standard is a guide to provide a reasonable degree of personal safety for operators and other persons during the normal operation and servicing of agricultural tractors.
This SAE Standard establishes loadings, tangential pull values, and inflation pressure relationships for tire sizes and ply ratings currently used on agricultural tractors. Primary purpose of this recommendation is for use with SAE J708 MAY59. The performance of the tractor is materially affected by tire loadings, tire tangential pull values, and inflation pressure; therefore, it becomes desirable to publish this information.
