i'm looking into converting a jd 37a snowblower from belt drive to a hydraulic motor for my 71 jd 140.i'd like to run it off the tractors hydraulics but don't know a lot about hydraulics. my 140 is an h3the charge pump puts out 3gpm but the circuit flow rate is only 1.5 gpm. the blower runs at 950rpm.the charge pressure on the tractor is 75-110 psi. according to the formulas i'v seen online i would need a .356 cu. in. motor. what i need to know is will that motor run the snowblower & is that enough hydraulic pressure or flow rate to do the job. any ideas?
