Ownership likes and dislikes

T255:

The only "issue", front end loader has no proportional control, with a bucket it is acceptable but with forks it can be a nightmare.
rear remote does acting " weird" from time to time.

anoying issues:
bucket and forks are not 100% straight anymore, and i'm not a hard user at all !! But the buket and forks are still good enough to use. Pretty sure other people would say, "they are still straight" ;-)
Engine Oil dipstick accessibility is terrible
gearbox/ hydraulic breather rubber siphon thing is sheap

For the rest so far, nice and fun little tractor

The hydraulic pump has an output of 5-gpm, at redline of the engine. The smallest loader control valves I have found are rated for 11-gpm. So, they are twice as large as the SCUTs need, but I haven't found a loader valve that is rated for 5 to 7-gpm yet. So, you have full pump flow at about a third of the loader valve movements. Couple this with the small cylinders on the FEL, and it takes a very fine hand to feather the valve. I've considered adding restriction valves in the hydraulics to the FEL to make them less responsive and slow them down.

Yes, i'm looking into another control valve or adjustable flow control valves as well.

My T224 lists the "implement pump capacity" at 4.17GPM and "steering pump capacity" at 2.11GPM, yet a max total flow at 6.97. Must be that last 0.69gpm is for the 3-pt or is it Korean math.. lol

Here's the loader valve on my T224. I couldn't find anything on it w/ a search on the Google machine..
