I have a 400 case tractor that I have used on a log splitter. I hook the 4"x24 cylinder to the remotes. The cylinder sat unused for about 2 years. When I connected up the cylinder it wouldn't move I then connect the cylinder to 430 case, cy still wouldn't move. the cy was old and pitted on the outside and not worth rebuilding. I bought a new 4x24 Grizzle cy from Va tractor supply. Hooked it up the 400 and it wouldn't move, I then took the cy to a hydraulic shop, they tested the cy and they said it work as it should with 2100 psi. my 400 should put out about 1100 psi at 11 gpm. I then hooked it up to a 1120 compact case that should put out 2100 psi at 4.5 gpm still cy only moves about 1/2 in out. Both tractors hydraulics work great both have new hydraulic oil and filters. What am I missing here? I haven't put a gauge on the remotes, I haven't used the remotes on other cylinders yet. I hooked up the 430 today and it won't work either and that remote works a loader bucket. The 430 has 1400psi at 8.5 gpm. Its like the two pressures are working against each other. Help is appreciated!
