The owner traces fluid flow from the dual pumps through power steering, PTO clutch, transmission charge circuit, loader valve, and third-function/rear remotes, with real flow numbers (3.4 and 4.5 GPM) and a cautionary note about undersized flow stalling hydraulic augers. Best for owners wanting to understand or troubleshoot the system, not shoppers wanting a first look.
An owner-operator of this specific tractor sharing detailed hands-on technical knowledge from personal experience, including his own equipment mishaps.
Only about 4.5 gallons per minute is available on the three-point/loader side, even though the two pumps combined put out around eight gallons per minute.
The owner tried a Land Pride S820 hydraulic auger and it stalled; flow over about four gallons per minute is needed, and unfavorable soil makes it worse.
It regulates charge pressure to 60 to 80 PSI, reducing cavitation risk, and slowly replaces heated fluid with new fluid to keep temperatures in check.
It comes off the pump, goes to the steering controller and rack, then to a cooler, then back to run the transmission and PTO clutch.
