![''Fat Boy'' severe-duty agricultural tire](http://salesmanual.deere.com/sales/salesmanual/images/NA/cutters_shredders/features_attachment/hx20-cx20-cutters/fatboy_tire_weight-box_cutters_hx20-cx15.jpg)
These larger tires provide a larger footprint with added flotation for a smoother ride and greater durability for on and off road travel.
![CV driveline](http://salesmanual.deere.com/sales/salesmanual/images/NA/cutters_shredders/features_attachment/hx15-cx15-cutters/cv_driveline_attach.jpg)
![#](http://salesmanual.deere.com/sales/salesmanual/images/clearpix.gif)
Benefits of the CV driveline include:
- Lock-slide collar, included on all John Deere drivelines, helps during the attachment to the tractor allowing the operator to keep their hands on the driveline and not on the collar.
- Professional seals on the cross kits allow for a lubrication interval of up to 50 hours.
- Grease zerks in the cap cross kits provide easy access for field lubrication.
- Large, dimpled floating disks reduce wear and improve the grease retention.
- Precision spherical ball-and-socket bearings distribute loading evenly and provide a long life and high performance.
A lightweight driveline with a lock-slide collar makes the tractor to cutter connection faster and easier.

CX15 and CX20 may be equipped with eight wheels to provide improved flotation for the wings on soft ground. The dual wing wheels also provide for a better likelihood of avoiding scalping on the wings when single wing wheels fall into a hole or rut.
