I have a couple of questions for you guys.

1. can i use hose clamps on the 3/8 pressure line from the pump to the hydraulic spool?

2.what kind of oil should i use for the bucket loader?

[wallfish 17,112]

1. No, it is high pressure. Everything except the return (after the spool valve) and the suction hose TO the pump are high pressure.

2. Hydraulic oil-- It is designed to let the air bubbles out quicker and dissipate the heat better. I bought a 5 gallon bucket from Tractor Supply but you can find it in most auto parts stores too.

 

I highly recommend you Google-- "hydraulic oil accidents" and you will see exactly why caution must be taken when dealing with fluid under high pressures. It made me pay extra attention to what I was doing!

Northern Tool has a few. I built my own loader with this pump and a 6" pulley, but it might be just a bit too powerful, the bucket moves a little faster than I would like.

this is the pump that I bought for my loader.The problem I am having is that I bought a pulley with a set screw that goes on the pump shaft and the set screw is to big and the pulley woobles on the shaft and the belt comes off.Is there a pulley you guys recommend  that will fit on the shaft of this pump or should I try to modify the pulley  I have to the pump shaft?

I did the same thing. That pulley will not work, you need these:

I used the 6" because I used it on a loader for an XI series. The PTO pulley is about 6", so I wanted to be close to the same size.

All thanks go to Andy, without his help, I would not have been able to do as nice a job as I did on my loader.
