Hydraulic advice.Was I wrong???

Hey folks, just saw a question on a forum here about having an extra hydraulic oil tank on a tractor to make up for large cylinders (capacity) on equipment.
My thought was (and I had seen it on a wagon before) to put a tank on the equipment with the required amount so that you wouldn't have to store the extra oil on the tractor itself. Wondering now if I may have been dreaming.

A reservoir needs to be unpressurized, and hooked to the suction side of the pump. If on the equipment, there would need to be a suction rated hose of good I.D. to connect the res to the tractor W/O restriction, and with quick connect coupler. Not too easy.
on a wagon with PTO drive to it they can have a pump, reservoir, and cylinder (or hyd. motor) onboard with no lines to the tractor. A loader mounted on the tractor is often setup with the res. in the tubing. with a connection to the pump, or other on board reservoir.
My guess probably wrong, but good spirited. Jim
 
A separate res. is only needed for large single acting cylinders. Uncle had some sort of hoist on a trailer that had a cylinder with about an 8 inch bore. It took several gallons not to mention several minutes to raise with an H Farmall belly pump. To do this you have to mount a tank above the belly pump to allow gravity to deliver the oil to the factory reservoir.
 
I have a 1310 ford 4-wheel drive 3-cylinder diesel tractor. I am wanting to put a front end loader on it. Are the hydraulics good enough to run it?
 
yes it has plenty hyd fluid. i had a 1310 with front loader. if i remember right it should have a spliter valve on right side below foot rest that you plumb the loader in to.
