OT: Hydraulic Top Links, Pros-Cons

charles todd · Nov 16, 2008

I am thinking of buying a hydraulic top link to use with my "Root Rake" I just recently built. Has anyone used these before? Is it recommended to use a DPOCV (double pilot operated check valve) to handle shock loads? I was reading some post on TractorByNet.com and there was a lot of info there on compact tractors users regarding HTL. It seems like a good idea.

Pictures of the rake are on the IH Forum.

Hi Charles
We have HTL for years used with

Rear grader instant pitch adjust go lower in ditches
Carryall to ajust inclination and dump
Boom pole
Cement mixer dump/adjust level
Facilitates 3PT implements hook/unhook
Use the cylinder in winter for snow blower chute rotation.

My 2¢

I figured they would be as handy as socks on a rooster. Thanks.
