I have a 1954 VAC-14 and would like to put a front end loader on it. I have a loader that came off of a 311 round nose. Question does my hydraulic pump have enough grunt to make this loader work effectively?

David, we used a loader like this for years. It would lift one end of a car when we needed to. Bruce

How did you hook up the hydraulic lines? My tractor had a side mount sickle bar mower on it and I still have the controls and valves mounted on the side of the torque tube. will this work, I think it should

The factory 311 hyd pump was rated 9 gpm @ 1200-1300 psi at 1750 eng rpm. Torque tube capacity is 3 gal w/tripl range, 14 qts w/o.

The factory VAC hyd pump was rated 7 gpm @ 850 psi at engine 1425 rpm. Pending cylinder size it will lift as much as that tractor can confortably roll with.

More of a consideration is the torque tube oil capacity of 2 gals. You could over fill it some, probably have to raise the vent to keep the mist mess down. Higher oil level may also put older drive shaft seals in jeopardity. DA cylinders would be best but you should calculate the oil difference between the piston and shaft end to be sure.

A pto pump and separate reservoir would be the ideal way to go.

If it's the pump for the eagle hitch your talking about, it wont work a loader. You'll have to get a high preasure vein pump to work a loader. They are available, pricey though.....

Well, I better go out and tell my VAC that it can't lift that loader.

Actually, I do not mean to be a smart a** but it easily can if everything is figured right. Mine can actually lift more than the tractor should handle but it all depends upon psi, gpm and cylinder size. If anything is a little weak it is the hp of the engine.

I beg to differ, in that they will not work a loader, if has the govenor mounted pump which I believe all VAC-14 had they I will, mine came with a loader, a CASE loader, I don"t know about the newer loader off of the 311, it probably requires more pressure since the 311 put out more pressure.
