This document has been declared Stabilized and will no longer be subjected to periodic reviews for currency. Users are responsible for verifying references and continued suitability or technical requirements. New technology may exist.The rationale for moving SAE J 873 to a Noncurrent status is that we are not aware that this standard is being used in industry today and no experts exist to maintain this document.This SAE Standard establishes a test method to measure drag force of self- propelled, as well as towed, construction, forestry, and industrial machines, with or without payload, as listed in SAE J/ISO 6165 and SAE J 1116.Drag force is measured as a function of travel speed.
