Tractor with good hydraulics??

[swinny]

I've been looking for a loader for my john deere 3040 for a long while, nothing has yet presented itself!

 

I'm considering selling both my tractors and getting another with a loader allready fitted which is a shame but want to move forwards.

 

Not looking to spend a lot! 5-6k what about a 590 fergy? have they got good hydraulics?

 

I have a log splitter with a massive ram so want good pressure!

 

I could easily pick up a 590 and a mf80 loader but would be 2wd....

 

thats why it would be a shame to get rid of the 3040 as its 4wd.... hmmmm

 

most of my work is roadside etc rarely off road etc, need to shove chip pile up and load trailer etc and its bad in that area. Ideally want to be moving yards to somewhere with a nice concrete pad so 2wd wouldnt be a problem...

 

Any suggestions on what tractors?

 

Cheers

i would only use this as a guide and contact a main dealer for accurate information

Would it not be better to give the splitter its own pump and oil tank, that way you could run it with any tractor, also the tractor would only need to be on tick over, which could save a fair bit of fuel and a engine hours over time.

HI SWINNY a massey 590 will not run your massive ram or you could use a PTO to run it OR if you only need 2wd then a MASSEY INDUSTRIAL TRACTOR the way as they have a large hydraulic pump at the front of tractor that will run your splitter thanks jon
