Looking for HYD. IN THE KNOW GUYS

I have a CASE NO. 32 BACKHOE---Just the hoe. I want to sell it. It is on a DO MOR tractor--converted over to a fast hitch. The DO MOR has a large hyd. system and two big hoses run from the tractor to the hoe.
Question----could this hoe be converted over to a 3 PT tractor--thinking 75 HP and above. Would a farm tractor have the hydraulics to run a backhoe??? ALSO open or closed system????

Thank you

Open or closed system is going to depend on what valve is currently on the hoe, or if you know what type of system the do-mor has. Also to run the hoe efficiently your going to want at least 15-20 gpm pump on the tractor.

Don Ryan,who runs the fabricating shop in Edmore bought a good sized one that had been mounted on the back of a big old truck. He made that one over to a 3pt. I borrowed it several years ago and ran it with a 4040 Deere. I'm thinking that one plugged in to the tractor remotes. Don't remember hooking up a PTO anyway. When I borrowed it I had to drive out east of McBride and get it at his brother's place. I took it back out there,might still be there.

Case 32 hoes were open center. Project sound doable, but the hoe may be a bit slow with a flow less than 20gpm.
