I also have a 2038R and was having trouble lifting anything heavy, like round bales, feed totes, etc.. I found HydrosPlus and checked my pressure, it was 2500 at full throttle. I increased it to 3100 and it made a world of difference. I then ordered the bigger cylinders and pump from HydrosPlus and it's a completely different tractor. HydrosPlus is doing some great work in this space!

My opinion is I think it is probably the right approach by JD. Set at a reasonable pressure at the factory for the 1st timers who don’t know what they’re doing, and good operators with minimal mechanical knowledge can turn it up easily after a little research. JD could just as easily put a unadjustable PRV in place of the stock valve. That said, my Hydrosplus pump and cylinder upgrades saved me thousands of dollars vs a larger machine where I only need the upper spec limit half a dozen times a year, otherwise I’m operating my 2038R down in the normal engineered for range.

Basically there's a spring in there that the hydraulic pressure has to overcome in order to go into bypass. When you tighten that screw you are increasing the tension on that spring, which increases the amount of pressure required to go into bypass.

You chose your words very well when you were saying "there are two groups of people here who are going to say.....". Hopefully you can cut off some of the ignorant comments before they're even written. You also beat me to the punch by addressing the hydraulic system's hoses, fittings being rated at 3,000lbs. I was going to mention it, but you were a step ahead of me! Although, even though the hydraulic hoses, cylinders and fittings (and whatever else I may be forgetting) are rated at 3,000lbs. I'd bet that they'd take far more than that before there was an issue. I'm not saying that anybody SHOULD go that high with their system's pressure, just saying that I'd bet anything that the system could probably take substantially more pressure before there were issues.

But for personal use, stop it with the debt. You are not going to use the machine to pay for itself. I saved up for years to be able to afford my tractor. Yeah, it sucked having to put off projects and do things the hard way. But I paid cash for my LS MT342 with upgraded backhoe and now I can do anything I need. I've never found something that machine can't do. And no payments! We are too accustomed to having our 'wants' turn into 'needs'.

The other week, I had to use it to load an empty 1000 gallon propane tank onto an 18’ utility trailer. I had to back the trailer under it because the tractor wouldn’t lift it high enough to go over the side of it. That’s with the straps all the way in on the pallet forks. They claim a 2500 lb lift capacity at the pins. But I wasn’t seeing that,…and I know that the tank doesn’t weigh half of its max. I appreciate you doing that, and looking forward to seeing what you find out.

That's good to know. I should check out my tractors' psi to make sure it's performing correctly. Looked like you have some bleed off in the cylinders or valve body. My tractor won't keep applied down pressure on the bucket tilt. It's bleeding off way too quickly and I just rebuilt the cylinders and still have the same problem. So it has to be in the loader valve body. I think they are all capable machines but they "manufacturers " are keeping them under spec and want up sale to a "bigger capable machine " so that they aren't getting sued because someone that's a novice got hurt. It's like when McDonald's got sued for serving hot coffee and it spilled on the person that ordered hot coffee.

I think you're 50% right on why JD keeps its capacities so marginalized compared to the Korean brands. As someone who grew up on a large scale farm with 80-250hp John Deeres, combines, self propelled sprayers, everything green you get the picture, John Deeres number one assist is the brand image! Nothing runs like a Deere! keeping rated capacities far below failure points saves you from yourself and also saves everyone else from seeing a bunch of broken up green equipment plagued with failures. John Deere commands premium price, its customers are groomed to pay that price and ultimately the majority of them often say, this is the best equipment money can buy, I'll just pay more for more capacity. Its a blessing and a curse, their success has allowed them to bring so many awesome features to market in the compact tractor arena but that same success has made them feel invincible and although NO ONE will ever over take JD marketshare I do believe they know they need to pivot and make some adjustments, the proof of that?

The maximum operating hydraulic pressure needs to be some percentage less than the weakest failure point. If an engineer wants a 3000 psi operating pressure, the design engineer is going to design in an X percentage safety margin, taking into consideration every possible point of failure. The absolute maximum pressure the system is designed to handle is going to be more than the factory recommended pressure. The same holds true for operating axle loads, etc. Companies have to design in those margins to reduce after sale warranty costs and reduce potential liability claims. My recommendation is to set the hydraulic pressure at the maximum recommended factory operating pressure. Without knowing the maximum design pressure ( assured weakest link failure point above that pressure ), going above the recommended factory maximum pressure is risky.

Manufacturers believe leave the hydraulic pressures lower for 3 reasons. 1 is liability on them would be more if it lifted more. 2 is less warranty repair work. 3 it cost less money to use lower capacity rates cylinders and hoses. This means its about the profits not your safety. If you raise the pressure, but stay in what the Manufacturer has listed as in normal range. I don't see where they could or should be able to void your warranty. If you go above what is listed as normal range like 50psi I don't see this actually hurting anything. Its when you are going over larger amounts like 200psi is where problems usually start. There are a lot of people running the kubota bx tractors 50 to 100 psi over recommended pressures. They seam to be holding up well, unless you start trying to push your tractor over its rated limits all the time. With the pressure range on Brocks tractor I personally don't believe he will have any problem even if he went to 3100psi.

Too much going on at one time! Your lift geometry plays a big part! Pressure vs lift will not be a linear relationship. As far as breaking something, you may shear the shaft on your pump, you may fracture a pin joint, you may exceed a hose rating. Most of the items will have a safety factor of 2:1 or higher before failure, but that is to allow for dynamic loading, such as driving or bouncing. Hydraulics are amazing, but what you observe may not be what you think! btw inside that pressure control is an o-ring that cannot usually be replaced. If you heated that assembly up that oring will now fail. Do yourself a favor and by a new valve!

If John Deere put specifications in their manuals that says you can go up to 3100 pounds or whatever it was as long as you’re at that point or lower there should be no violation of your warranty whether you modified it or not those are factory settings or parameters governing factory settings so if you turn it up to 3100 pounds and they say that that is OK Then that should not violate your warranty. if you turn it up to 3200 pounds and something breaks then yeah John Deere shouldn’t have to pay for that because you exceeded those levels and it is what it is. My personal opinion warranty or not if they say the safe operating ranges from whatever to 3000 or 3100 pounds whatever it was I personally would go slightly below the maximum give myself a little bit of buffer room would choose to get the extra power and optimize that power within a safe operating range and then back off just a little bit to give it a little bit of a relief from that level just to keep the wear from being excessive but this is how this stuff is designed to operate within those specifications should not be a problem. I think or he said the hoses can only handle 3000 pounds and that should be included in the specifications because it’s part of that system so That would be your maximum point and if that’s 3000 I might back off to 2800 or so to give it a little bit of wiggle room and keep it from being pushed to its absolute limits all the time but those are safe, operating parameters and it shouldn’t be a problem Configure your machine within those parameters at all. Otherwise their parameters are wrong so it should be warranted and because those parameters were chosen. It should be safe to be within those parameters. Now if you want maximum performance like race, car or something like that or you just wanna push your equipment to the limit and risk, breaking it to see how much you can get out of it, that’s cool, but don’t expect a warranty and, any race person or performance machine type person? Will tell you that sometimes you break stuff. I do offloading and rock crawling and we break stuff all the time but it is what it is that’s part of it it’s a sport if you’re running a business and you need a machine that lives 3000 pounds and you buy a machine that’s 2000 pounds and you push it that’s just dumb by a machine that’s 3000 pounds and does the job appropriately because you’re trying to run a business and you can’t afford the downtime if you got a machine that only does 2000 you wanna push it to 3000 that’s cool but don’t be surprised when it breaks, but that doesn’t mean you can’t do it means you might break it if you do personally, I think it’s kind of cool to see how far you can push it but if you’re gonna do that you can’t cry when it breaks either lol. I like the video and I like what you’re doing if I had this model of a tractor, I would probably make this adjustment and I would personally stay a little under the maximum and a parameters just to be safe, but I think it’s worth the performance like you’re saying, you can’t lift that into the bed of a truck normally, now you can And the machine is designed to do that so it shouldn’t be a problem and of course if you stay within the parameters, you should be within your warranty requirements and shouldn’t cause excessive wear and tear on your unit. If you buy a car and you adjust the timing so it’s retarded and you lose a bunch of power that’s not gonna make your engine last longer designed to operate Tuned and if your unit is not adjusted in tuned properly, you’re probably gonna be better off tuning it appropriately and if you wanna ask your performance to go be on those parameters then that’s cool but you might break it so just know that and decide based on that.I wouldn’t discourage anybody from cranking it up to 2800 or whatever within those parameters and don’t think it should cause excessive wear and tear to wear it will damage your equipment. It’s designed to operate in that range safely so it shouldn’t be a problem. Cool video this stuff is fun and you optimize the performance of your machine, that’s awesome.

@@PoisonShot20I’d say primarily safety. With what they had it set at it’s hard to tip the machine even without ballast. My drill that I couldn’t even lift before and now easily can will make my tractor pop wheelies on command.

Ok... I'm sitting here snapping my fingers but... no bigger tractor. Darn, I'm not one of those people either. 😅

I don’t have a cash reserve to dip into and I don’t love the idea of borrowing more money so I guess I need to find a way to use the machine I have

@@RockhillfarmYT not sure if you saw but @TractorTimewithTim added a turbo kit to his 1025R with pretty good results

Yeah, I’ve watched that series on Johnny X. I’m actually doing something similar with mine although it already had a turbo so that’s not in the list.

You are wrong! There are three groups of people. I’m in the third. My opinion is you do what you want to do. It’s your life and your equipment and your safety. I mentioned the pressure in your backhoe video. I’m sure you can dig more and lift the back of the tractor now. I’m assuming your next stem is larger bore cylinders. That will really make it lift more. Safety comment. You may already do this. If you are going down a hill with a heavy load on the front, it’s better to be in 4wd. Once the back tires come up off the ground, no brakes. Yours should not be an issue with all the rear weight and backhoe on it. Best wishes, Kevin

Great comment I had that commentary in the video because I was trying to prevent big arguments where people get hateful about it.

@@RockhillfarmYT I understand! I was an Electrical Design Engineer. Seeing comments on electrical videos brings out the absolute BEST electrical knowledge people. Ask them, they will tell you how smart they are. NOT! BTW, as an engineer, I can honestly state that there is a safety (CYA) factor in everything that is rated. You will only know the ratings of hydraulic parts, unless you are an engineer designing it or find someone to tell you. Best wishes, Kevin
