Power Pack on L6060, how long of hoses and where do you run them?

What kind of oil cooler do you have on your units? I found it on your site, but can't tell from the images or drawings. I do not see any wires coming from it so it must be a heatsink style without a fan?

Love the way your pack is setup we just can't do the price tag for it right now. Do you by chance have any other styles or used units?

Thanks again!

Our site miemachinery.com only shows our High Flow Power Packs. We have lower flow units that are less expensive, but still have the features of the High Flow packs. If you are interested in more information on our 21gpm units, please use the Contact Us feature on the website. All of our Power Units are PTO Shaft Drive with DC Fan Driven Coolers.

Thanks, just messaged via your site.

Yes I already have the attachements, one runs at 18gpm, another at 16, the last at 12. All units have flat face connectors.
There are no control valves for any attachment, simple on/off, speed (gpm) depending on PTO output.

L6060 has no cab.

You could have just gotten a M62 (I believe its 18 gpm) for the price difference....much more capable machine and a backhoe to boot.

Hate to say it, but you are probably going to regret this power pack in a year or 2. It just doesnt perform the same as a true hydraulically driven machine. That said you own it now, so might as well make the best of it!

I think what he's trying to say is that it's not a green JD HP2134... for $15k... so it's junk. lol

No, he is saying the problem is the needed fluid
power to develop torque.

An open center hydraulic system provides flow at
a low pressure in a hydraulic system.

The attachments that are driven by the hydraulic
fluid create the resistance to flow that the back
pressure created by them is what creates the
needed pressure in the system to power the
attachment.


I will say this; if your hydraulic drive attachments
do not have the case drains connected on the
hydraulic motors they need to be installed to prevent
oil seal blow outs.
The same applies to the hydraulic power packs pump.

The case drain lines allow oil to flush the area behind the seal
with low pressure oil to prevent a seal blowout as the system
pressure will be high behind the seal at all times when it is
running.

For 18gpm, you will need a 3/4" Power Hose, and at least 3/4" Return Hose. 1" Return would be optimal, but 3/4" Return would be acceptable. We use 3/4" Power and Return Lines on all of our 21gpm Auxiliary Power Units, 1" return for the 32gpm units. Keeping fluid velocity low in the return line is important to keep the system backpressure low and eliminate foaming in the reservoir.

Are your 21gpm and below units using 3/4" connections in and out?
The 3 attachments we have are a plate compactor, auger and concrete drum mixer, all of which have 1/2" lines in and out. Will running 3/4" lines from the power pack to the attachments (i'd say about 20' of line once routed) help with flow and heat if their just bottlenecking at the pack and at the attachments?

Also, does your power pack have a case drain on it? (see below why I'm asking)

Yes the attachments have case drains already.
The power pack pump does not, because it's a PTO pump and not a motor, I can't seem to find any PTO hydraulic pump that has a case drain on it.

I had to make some connection plates on my tractor to pipe lines to front. they run under cab, up loader post and out to the connector. all custom made as no one sells these.

Looks great. Is there a set of qd’s between the cab glass and front mount? Or do you remove the lines before removing the loader frame?
