Just remember to shut the engine off before connecting/disconnecting those couplers. Dan

No tees. Disconnect loader power beyond from tractor and run it to rear. Put a female coupler on it - thats the backhoe supply. Put a male coupler on a new hose and run it forward to the port disconnected in step 1. Thats your backhoe return. When the backhoe is not connected loop those two...

Remove return line from backhoe reservoir and stick it in an empty 5 gallon bucket.. Disengage PTO, start tractor, and set enginel speed to 540 PTO speed Engege PTO and time how long it takes to fill bucket to 4 gallon marrk You now kmow flow rate @540 pump RPM. Dan

l Your hoe and splitter are protected by inlet reliefs in the control valves so no such thing as "too much pressure". Tbe two stage pump makes higher flow at lower (~800) PSI and flow drops way back to develop full pressure. Not what you want for a hoe. The PTO pump runs slower but has a much...

Its been quite a while - I would have to look at the WSM. That manual has very detailed imformation on the KRA operation and troubleshooting. Do you have your WSM? Dan

So KRA is actually working but you can't disable it. Bummer. On the G2160 and G2460 there is a KRA controller (microprocessor) that handles all the inputs and logic. Is that true of your TG1860? Dan

G is the designation given to the parallel pipe thread specified in the British national standard. R dedignates the tapered form. Both G and R threads use the wholly British Whitworth thread form. It is the defacto pipe thread standard for the vast majority of the world. The British standard...

Congratulation on getting things hooked up. Now putting on my pedantic cap. I realize you live in Germany but the governing intrnational standards for British Standard Pipe threads are ISO 7 for taper threads and ISO 228 for parallel threads. The historical British Standard (BS).has been...

Hagrid speaks softly but carries a big fun dictionary... Dan

Lookup position control feedback rod adjustment in that WSM. Dan

They are clearly not gear teeth so I like your guess. The burning question is that left over from a previous repair or new.? I also think the (unflattering??) self characterization is unwarranted.... TOH

You do realize this is related to the body size of the couplers.? Dan

After following this epic drama for days now I think you need to just grin and bear it. Dan

If that were one of my G's I would consider it a blessing!!! What exactly is it doing or not doing? Does the engine shutoff with the key? Dan
