I’m installing a 3rd function kit on a John Deere 3038e to operate a small grapple. Is there enough hydraulic flow on this tractor to operate a small skid steer style brush cutter? Thanks in advance.

Steering hydraulics15.0 L/min
4.0 gpm
Implement hydraulics20.2 L/min
5.3 gpm

Max flow would be 5.3 gal at full throttle minus any other implement flow, such as using the loader to move the cutter.
Now you can look at the brush cutter requirements.

Most 3rd function setups are not designed for continuous flow like motor application. YMMV

No, you will not have enough flow for a skid steer style brushcutter.

Oh, skid steer...I think most people use ssqa as an abbreviation. SS has some bad history. :)
