That 3.4 GPM may well be all I can handle while I learn the operation of a backhoe. Once you start practicing on a new-to-you machine, reality gets real close and sometimes real ugly if you're not careful. So I hope to go slow but strong as I gain proficiency.No problem! I'm just trying to help and hopefully prevent you from spending huge amounts of money on trial and error. I've been there and it's not a good thing and can really bring the morale down on a project like this.
That would put around 3.4 GPM at 1700 RPM and you still have the option to run it at higher RPM if that turns out to be slow. Sounds like a plan to me.
