Northeast Iowa | Hi folks. Im used to getting on here asking about repairs on my Massey 510 and being reminded how I probably shouldn't have bought it, so this will be strange talking about a high quality machine for once!
We're buying a 1086 soon with intentions of cultivating row crops with it, mainly. Also running the planter and whatever else but thats besides the point. We are mounting a Gandy 6212 air seeder on the cultivator for inter-seeding cover crops, and need to know what we have to do (if anything) to be able to run the blower on the seeder. It takes 8 GPM. I don't know a whole lot about it yet other than that. I plan on asking many questions when we go to pick it up.
The 1086 is a white stripe, so as far as I know its older and open center hydraulics (From what I understand the red stripes are newer, closed center). I don't actually have the tractor in my shop yet and forgot to take a picture of the serial number. I've read quite a few things on here about what you have to do to run a planter or sprayer pump, but there are many differences between that and this project. Since this blower takes 8 GPM, is that enough flow that the pump won't dump so much through the relief and overheat the oil? If so, will I have a problem lifting the 3 point while pressure is being supplied to the blower? Another thing that could be a factor here, we might be running a Buffalo Scout system as well. That isn't an orbit motor so I know we wont have an issue running it, but will the tractor supply hydraulics to both remotes at the same time?
If there is hardware I need to make this work - let me hear about it! I assume one decent option would be a PTO driven hydraulic pump, but that seems expensive and I would have to have a reservoir, filter...lots of extra plumbing. I'm not totally apposed to spending some money on this project because we're getting a fantastic deal on a very nice condition tractor, but you all know how it is...don't want to spend time and money building an elaborate build when a flow control valve and return into the transmission would do it. | |
