From a neophyte, on behalf of all neophytes, this question:
For a 'normal' tractor if there is such a thing, does the engine have to be running at full power in order to have the hydraulic system at deliver full force and speed?
Asked another way, if the engine is rated full power at 2700rpm, and delivers half power at 1900rpm:
How does the hyraulic system behave at at 1900? Would the FEL deliver the same lifting force at the same speed (seems unlikely), or the same force but at a slower speed, or at reduced max force and at a slower speed?
Or, to keep things from being simple, does the answer depend on the relative matching of the hydraulic systems and engine power? (For example, a tiny hydraulic system mated to a monster engine would, it seems, deliver all it can at almost any engine setting.)
If this is the case then my questions don't make sense in general, but can only be asked for a specific make/model of tractor - in my case I'd be interested in a JD 4320 CUT. What is the minimum rpm needed to allow full use of the hydraulic power and speed available on this tractor? Does it matter if the tractor is moving or not (eHydro drive)?
