I'm looking for a machine to power a drive head, so I'm concerned with flow rate. As I'm comparing specs of what's available locally, I notice flow rates for the Kubota seem a little strange. Specs say overall capacity is 27.3 gpm and list the auxiliary flow at 10.9. On the other machines I'm looking at, the auxiliary flow rate is usually a lot closer to the overall capacity. The 303C CR, for example, says overall is 23.1 with primary aux 15.85 and secondary at 7.15. Even the seemingly low flow 27D, with it's overall of only 16.4 gpm has an auxiliary rate listed at 13.9.
Is it just the way different companies list their specs? Like maybe the Cat and Deere can't really operate like that and the numbers are just theoretical?
I can get a good deal on the Kubota, but the 10.9 gpm is just a little too low. Is it possible to harness some of that remaining power to improve the flow to my drive head?
