I transfered fluid from an old full sized tractor tire to the replacement by using an electric sprayer pump.
Had to stop a couple of times to release the air.

If you use anti-freeze would that keep your rims from rusting? I want to do this to one of my tractors but just not sure what to use, I've also heard windshild wiper solvent. so just what would be the best thing to use?

Mike I use RV anti freeze in my stuff but you can use windshield fluid, Rim Guard, anti freeze with out tubes or Cal if you put tubes in or you will rot the rims. Some guys have said they get used anti freeze at some repair shops cheap and use that.
I lay the tire on it's side valve core up and break the upper bead and just pour it in. I have one that has tubes so I'm going to try the sprayer pump idea, sounds like it should work good.

Beet juice can also be used as an alternative to calcium, it doesn't eat your rims and is biodegradable should you puncture your tire. We started using that at my dad's shop as disposing of old calcium is very expensive.

Looks like you are using some type of pump? If so what is it?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
