Hi Mitch -

We have one. It's a heavy-duty industrial unit, mounted on a 55 hp Massey 30. A good unit, probably in line with the early Case 580's.

Probably could be adapted to the 3-point, but it's a heavy brute, and you might need additional stabilizing brackets for satisfactory operation.

It has a rotary swing cylinder, not pistons, and those can be expensive. Ours has had both the barrel and shaft replated; both are flaking, and we can't keep seals in it. So it loses some swing force, and creeps sideways (90 deg in less than a minute on a slope.)

Don't know whether the pump is 17 or 22 gpm.

Hope this helps.
