Farmall H Hydraulics Explained

[@mikenieschwitz2615]

I installed a 2 spool valve for a an aftermarket 3 point hitch with 2 way cylinders. In my set up I secured the hydraulic pump in the on position, and plumbed via a Tee a return line from the 2 spool valve to the drain at the bottom of the belly pump. The second spool valve I plumbed in a set of remotes via quick couplers. The Farmall H hydraulic system makes about 850 - 900 psi and with properly sized hydraulic cylinders will pick up more than the front end weight can stabilize. I utilized a shot off valve before the 2 spool valve so I can utilize additional hydraulic ports ( 2 more of the 3 ) and run a 3 point hitch hydraulic log splitter. Everything works good, just limited by today's hydraulic pressure standards.

Thanks for the explanation of how it all works I definitely appreciate it a lot, and when I make this box blade I’m definitely gonna have to do what you have for quick connect. I have a 1945 farmall h, that I’m about to start changing all of the fluids in but this video does help a lot with the hydraulics

Glad it helped!

Nice looking Ol' Farmall H. 👍🏻 We had one when I was growing up. Good job explaining how the hydraulic works. 👍🏻 Take care. 🍻🍻

[@AmericanTradesmen]

Thanks buddy!

Notice how Charlie has to make an appearance in literally every video now whether I intended for it or not 😂

[@crslyrn]

@@AmericanTradesmen Yep, he's a regular KZbin star. He's really growing too. 😂😂😂

[@AmericanTradesmen]

That’s all he does is eat,grow and grunt!

Subscribed we have a H and several M's with the belly pump.

Hey Andy!! Either you haven't put anything up for a bit, or YT isn't bothering to tell me..

[@AmericanTradesmen]

It’s been a couple of weeks Ed. Work has been crazy for both of us. I made this video on my phone this morning for a fella that commented and asked for help on another video. We’ve got tons of stuff we’ve shot but limited time to edit. Stay tuned, I’m planning a rainy day all day edit session soon!

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

@@AmericanTradesmen dang, that means I'll have to do an all day in the shop, watching Andy and Matt..👍😎

[@bradykice8759]

Well I come back with another question for you. Say if I bought a PTO powered generator. How can I trick the tractor to spin the PTO at stop? I’m assuming engage the drive belt with the PTO engaged?

[@AmericanTradesmen]

How about a video explanation? I’ll be glad to fire up my H and show you

[@bradykice8759]

That’d be awesome as well and make some more sense.

[@AmericanTradesmen]

Alright, finally made it home and shot a quick video. It’s uploading and should be posted pretty quick.

Thank you for this video, I just bought a farmall H and had no idea how the hydraulics worked till I saw your video. My question is do you have to make these attachments like Brady is referring to with his box blade? Or is this stuff you can buy at a tractor dealer or tractor supply or something like that?

[@janbill79]

I have found the belly pump is held up there with 4 bolts. And the casting is broke off in the corner on 1, of the 4. I just keep using it that way, so far. nothing has happen yet. I have another farmall, It's an H. The belly pump, if I need the loader for some thing, I add oil to use it. will drip for several months after that. till the oil is far enough drained back out. That's the first I should fix. this spring.

Nice tractor!

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

Either side works, but it makes sense to use the right side, the hoses are on the side you aren't getting on and off... She thinks your tractors sexy👍😎

[@senderbud6323]

My 3 point won’t lower any ideas?
