Like anything, you need to use your head and not exceed the specs by setting it to lets say 2500. I will say I have heard a lot of these machines leaving the dealer at only 1800 PSI. If that's the case, you're not getting the full potential of the machine and lift capacity is already low to begin with. It's certainly worth a check as most of the techs at the dealer really don't care or it's "close enough".

 

I agree 100%.
The reason I know how to do this is because mine was set too low. Its now at the max recommended and is a BIG improvement.

 

Since where you are adjusting it is the loader control valve I assume just the loader but I’m not sure.

 

Reminds me of excavators with a valve stack that has a relief for each valve in the assembly. Those have a main relief that protects the pump though. You would only be able to raise the pressure up to the main relief setting. Wondering about the 260b hoe attachment, mine seems kinda weak. 2000psi at the loader scv when I checked it.

 

I ordered and received the hydraulic pressure gauge from KBOH and just checked my pressure and found it to be 1950 psi, I'm hoping that bumping it up to 2250 will be a noticeable difference.

 

Just FYI, according to the service manual the pressures should be checked and adjusted with the tractor at low idle, not wide open throttle like seen on TTWT videos.

 

The manual for the 3x20's reads "high idle" LOL. I guess we need to have a lengthy discussion on what low or high idle means 😁

 

Well whatever it is it isn’t full throttle! If the 1025R manual says something similar TTWT can turn his 120R loader into Arnold Schwarzenegger!

 

High idle is indeed ‘Full Throttle’.

 

I have to wonder if the low idle was a misprint. I don’t think I have ever seen a pressure call out at idle on any model or brand. It would be strange if this one model was different.

 

On a FB post a gentleman had his machine (2025R) adjusted by the dealer tech who indeed clarified pressure was done at low idle. Take it what that's worth I guess?

 

So is the 1025R adjusted in the same fashion??

I am unsure about the 1025R. The 2025R clearly states “low idle” in the service manual which isn’t “full throttle” that everyone claims to be how you adjust or check your pressure.
