1959 John Deere 630 3 point lift capacity question

steveinohio · Apr 25, 2018

I have an opportunity to purchase a JD 825 4 row wide rear mount cultivator. I intend to attach it to my JD 1959 630 tractor. Does a 630 have the hydraulic capacity on the 3 point to raise it and operated without any concerns? I'm not sure of the weight but the JD OM manual for a RM 4 row is 1,474 pounds. Currently I have a JD RM 2 row cut down from a 4 row that handles it with ease. Any assistance is always appreciated.

I omitted in my original post that my 630 does have front end weights on it.

I spent many hundreds of hours with a 630 pulling an RG630. The 630 had no problems lifting it whatsoever though it’s good to have those front weights. I don’t know how an RG630 compares to an 825 for weight though.
