My brother has a JD 260 skid loader he got recently. He was told it has high and low flow hydraulics. If that is the case he cannot locate any lever to put it in one or the other. What he needs to oprerate needs the high flow.
Any ideas/suggestions for him? Thanks

Usually there are 2 sets of connections, one is high flow, one is normal flow. You would attach a high flow attachment to the high flow connections, normal flow to the other. Or at least that was on the machines I have seen, there is no switching.

Found this to explain better.

Actually, there is a switch in the overhead console for activating the High Flow. On the left side of the console is a series of up to 6 switches, depending on how your machine is equipped. The high flow switch should be in the fifth position.
