Subject: Re: LIft assist hyd plumbing, revisited



Leesburg, Ohio
We run a 12 row Moore-Built toolbar with Pluribus units and lift assist wheels so we can keep the front end down on an 8300. It is fully mounted 3-point, and the lift wheels are plumbed seperately to an SCV. Never have had an issue going thru waterways or ditches. Seems to me if the lift assist wheels were plumbed into the 3-pt circuit with no top link, there would be nothing to stabilize the bar to keep it from tipping fore-aft...the fluid could all be squeezed to the 3pt cylinders and none to the assist wheels if the back was heavy, or vice-versa.

When we go thru a waterway, it doesn't "bridge," it just rides the whole bar up relative to the tractor.
