Right!
Also, aesthetically, it's the last in the lineup to remind me of the old Ford/NH machines, just in the simple square look.
It's a handsome machine.
Right!
Don't know yet, haven't gotten that far. I just saw somewhere that it was a suggested use for a mid pto, particularly because of the higher rpm. I liked the idea because I could have a completely independent hydro system. Thought it would be good for running SS attachments that rotate like augers, vibrating devices, log splitter, etc. Probably should have it's own topic post, if there isn't one yet.Does anybody make a pump to run off the mid pto? I know they make them for the rear pto.
Yeah, probably true, but my wife says I can't have every kind of machine. So sometimes I need to make the round peg fit in that damn square hole. It's why I have a burning outfit, welder, grinder, lathe... you get the idea.The one huge advantage of skid steers, even those little stand on ones, is hydraulic flow. It’s not a bad idea to get a bigger pump if you want to buy a bunch of stuff that needs hydraulic flow. But then I think if you need that kind of flow maybe you’re looking at the wrong kind of machine.
I didnt invest much time into searching, but the quick version I got is, the mini TLBs from JD and Kubota use a pump like you discussed, dedicated ti the back hoe. No idea if thats true, but might be a starting point to do details research?Don't know yet, haven't gotten that far.
