I purchased a Pressure tester/Adjustment kit Any tips? 2100 PSI good starting point? BX25.

I purchased the below kit, Any tips? I was reading though old threads and people were saying how they need to Remove the FEL and the Backhoe as well as the rear rim. I am looking at it and I don't believe any of that is needed unless I am looking at the wrong port in the rear.

What RPM should I check it at?

Thanks

High idle

2400 is "typical"

2100 is "factory conservative".

Is this pressure or rpm? I have a BX24 that needs checking.

Pressure.

The listing says it just takes "seconds" and included instructions. Maybe ask the seller?

 

[JOE G]

It comes with instructions, Figured I'd ask here as I am sure some of you have done it. Everything I am reading about pressure says the BX 25 comes set around 1,750 PSI and 2,000 is where a lot set it, Never heard anyone going to 2400.

Is there "a problem" you are trying to fix?

Higher pressure is harder on seals, hoses, pump parts, etc...

On my 2502, the hydraulic block is located right under the right side floor and very easily accessible. I checked mine at operating RPM and brought mine up to 2700psi. The only time it's harder on the pump or seals is when you are lifting the added weight gained from the pressure increase, otherwise it's operating in relief. So very limited loss on pump life is what I have read.

I could use a little more lifting power, Yes I understand it is a smaller machine and I have bigger machines if needed but I have read the pressure from the factory is set below spec quite often from the factory.
