New here,
Looking for advice for how to install a second set of rear wheel weights on my M7060. The bolts provided by the dealer are the same ones that were provided for the first set of weights and there isn't any provided mounting instructions.

You bolt the second set of weights directly to the first set of weights, not through bolts that would connect the second set of weights directly to the rims.

Pics of weights on my 75hp tractor. I have 6 sets on my tractor. 1st set on the inside and 5 sets on the outside, and still need filled tires to get maximum capability from the tractor.

These weights use 3 bolts. The first, inner set and second (1st outer set) sandwich the rim. From that point on they simply get bolted to the previous weight.
If you do not install an inner weight, then there will be washers and nuts to hold the first weight onto the rim.

First two weights on kubotas usually use the same bolt that goes through the rim, unless you have a cast center. but the pressed plate setups bolt the first two right to the center hub. Then additional weights piggy back on from there.
