I just realized I first posted in the lawn & garden thread. My bad. Has anyone tried to adjust the relief valve setting on a 447 backhoe to give it more power? My JD manual says its set at 2250psi. I know the 448 hoe is set at 2550psi. On paper it seems a lot more powerful. I know its physically larger than the 447. I didn't know if the valve was fixed or adjustable. I've seen on YouTube were some of you have either added a shim kit or turned a set screw to increase loader pressure. Just looking to get a little root ripping ability.
