What size hydraulic cylinder does a 14' cc-a cultivator use?

Thanks

Standard ag cylinder, 8" stroke, bore diameter determined by how fast you want it to lift and how much flow and pressure the tractor you intend to use it with has, probably 3.5" or 4".

Force = Pressure X Area

Force = Weight of Cultivator....

Pressure = Hydraulic ...(lets say 2000 psi)

Area = Area 3" diam. Ram / piston..1.5 X 1.5 X 3.142 = 7.0695 Sq"

Area...7.0695 sq" X 2000 Hyd psi = 14,139 lbs...

Force = 14,139 lbs

What is the HYD operating PSI of your Tractor...?

What is the size (Diam) of your Cylinder piston.......?

If your Hyd psi available is only 750 psi....Then the theoretical max weight you would lift on a 3" diam Ram is 5,302 lbs

I have a disc that is heavy, Hydraulic PSI on my Case 830 is low...I required a 4" diam. Cylinder.......a 3" did not lift disc when oil was up to operating Temp, and I'm not about to replace hyd pump....

I always suggest the owner to verify their machines HYD psi out put...
