Can someone give me a general idea of how
much fuel a Jd 50 will use per hour under a
moderate to heavy load. Such as bush hogging
fairly heavy brush and undergrowth with a 5ft. cutter.

I THOUGHT I HAD A NEBRASKA TEST ON A 50 GAS BUT I CANT FIND THAT BUT A 50 L.P. TOOK 3.306 GAL PER HOUR UNDER MAX LOAD 1.1 GAL PER HOUR NO LOAD..2.2 GAL AVE LOAD

A 50 ALL FUEL TOOK 2.041 GAL PER HOUR MAX LOAD .89 GAL PER HOUR NO LOAD. 1.656 GAL PER HOUR AVE LOAD.
I ALWAYS USED THE THUMB RULE OF ABOUT 2 GAL PER HOUR WORKING ALL DAY ON ANY TWO BANGER (20 GAL TANK... 10 HOURS. THAT TAKES IN FOR SLOWING ON ENDS AND WORKING SPOTS TO MAKE IT BARK.

I've been doing this very thing all week; I'm pulling a 5' cutter through grass in 3rd gear (mostly) at about 2GPH. Heavy brush usually requires 2nd gear but this doesn't increase the fuel consumption. I don't think I've ever reached 2.5 GPH with my 50.

About 14 to 15 HP per hour per US gallon. The 620/630 will do 18HP/hr/US gallon.So anything more than two gallons an hour through a 50 gas indicates service is required.
