    • Check pressure with pressure gauge on hydraulic take-off channel
    • Set pressure for 1500 psi for regular operation, and 2000 psi for hilly terrain
    • Test onflat ground
    • Test slopes- tractor should be able to navigate any slope with one 27hp power cube
    • FeF industry standard is a 1 cu in pump at 3500 rpm
    • Determine speed
    • If more speed is needed, use a hydraulic pump larger than 1 cu in. With one power cube, tractor will drive faster, but will stall going up steep inclines
