Power of 9n hydraulics

[Anonymous Poster]

To be sure I dont overload... what is the approximate weight limits on the hydraulics of a 9n?

Thanks

You won't "overload" the hydraulics. Before you reach the limit, it won't lift anymore. If it is in good condition, you will lift a lot.

I assume you mean the weight limit on the 3-point hitch, not really the 'hydraulics'? Your hydraulic system should be protected with a bypass valve.

The answer will depend on where the weight is - the farther back, the more leverage, so the less you can lift.

As you can tell, I don't have a real answer for you, but hopefully some to think on. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I think at about 700 lbs. it will start to lift the front wheels off the ground, YEEEHAA power steering on a 9N LOL.

Thanks again guys!

That low lift weight capability is due to the 'weak sister' hydro pump that kicks around 1200-1500 psi and 2.9 gpm..
