adding a two way cylinder to my trip bucket loader

allen6634 · May 30, 2013

i just got a older loader for my 600, the loader has a trip bucket ,so i want to put a two way cylinder on the bucket, i want to connect the old valve with my new valve, any info on what i need to do?

If you can get full flow with the old valve, then lock/bungee it open, and you should be able to provide flow to a DA valve.

A single spool valve will control one cyl, and a two spool valve will control two cyl. The OUT port from the new valve should go to tank.

If the fluid has to go back to the 3pt, then you will need a valve with PB.

If you have hyd flow, then you make things happen. The OUT from the valve will go into the frame tank.

Any idea of the pump flow, and pressure?

i am still trying to figuring out how to mount the loader, haven't took time to look at the pump real close, i do know that the pump is a vane pump, if my memory serves me right the pump has 24 gpm no idea on pressure.

That is a lot of GPM for a loader.

might not have read it right i was bolting up the coupeler at that time once i get this thing on my tractor i'll give everything a good look

The reason I question the GPM's, is that to pump 24 GPM's at 2000 psi, would require about 33 HP,

I believe the 600 only has about 27 to 31 HP for everything.

i think that is what it is rated. one thig i know for sure, the pump dosen't drag the engine down. yesterday i got the front hooked up on the loader, i needed to raise the loader a little, so i started the tractor and raised the bucket, i had the engine ideling the loader bucket came right up with out taxing my engine. after all that i found that the loader was made foe a tractor with a smaller wheel base, so i need to make a modification to the rear mounting to get it mounted right.

just getting the free time to look at the pump close, the pump has some info cast on or in it, real hard to read,the things i could make out was vickers vane pump, it also had patente # on it ( keep in mind very hard to see) 1544987,1544986, 1544890, i didn't see any thing on this pump.
