Bethany, MO | TP from Central PA - 4/27/2012 06:42 Everyone brags up Deeres great pump, the pump does do jack if it has no oil in it. Strange, have no trouble at all with old IH's on the job.
Deere's pump was FAR advanced of the IH pump. The engineering of the SYSTEM may have been incomplete, but it was fixed fairly quickly and simply. There were very few applications where the Deere system wasn't superior to the old open center system. You mentioned one of them. Everyone else didn't fix their's, they changed it. Unhook the dump cart and hook up to a 500 gallon trailer sprayer with a hydraulic pump and unless you spec the motor on the pump to pretty much the specific S/N of the tractor, you'll bring it to it's knees. |
