The 85cc pump supplies
oil to top two SCV's. It is recommended these SCV's be used for low
pressure and high flow functions. Most hydraulic motors use 19 to
26.5 L/min (5 to 7 gpm) per motor and a pressure of around 100 bar
(1450 psi) to operate.
Use top two SCVs to operate hydraulic
motors such as air seeders, sprayers and vacuum planters. Using the
secondary pump when operating hydraulic motors will improve fuel economy,
reduce power loss and reduce heating of hydraulic oil. This reduces
hydraulic system interactions with steering, brakes, raise, lower,
active down force, etc.
Hydraulic and cooling system overheating can result
if implement is not connected correctly into hydraulic system.
The secondary pump and top two couplers can provide
high pressure to the same functions as the primary pump, however,
the benefits of improved fuel economy and reduced power loss disappear.
There is an increased chance of system interactions with hydraulic
motors being on the same pump as other hydraulic functions which typically
means increased vacuum level or blower motor speed fluctuations. Under
some conditions, more heat can be generated which places increased
load on the cooling system.
