- Kubota L3540 w/ LA514 FEL, 66" QA Bucket, 48" QA Forks, 7' RB, 18" Ripper, Ferris IS2000z ZTR
The pressure settings I posted are max settings from the service manual. I guess my point is, unless you crank up the pressure beyond the amount that Kubota says it should be, the loader will lift less on a 3240 or a 3540, than on a 3940.
I'm sure that my dealer wouldn't do that adjustment. They set mine to the max for a 3240. From what I can see the safety valve pressure setting is the same for all three models. The 3940 has a larger pump which would change cycle time, I would imagine.
I understand what your saying about the tires, as it would change the lift height, but a change in pressure is a change in lifting ability with the same loader, or I'm I missing something here?
Best, Bill
Here's a link to a thread I created about building a pressure gauge and the pressures I recorded on m L3540.
