Chuck3 I can't think of to many reasons to adjust the speed on an open center system like on you 1066. A person can feather the valve and get just about any speed. I always liked the open center because it you pull the lever somthing is going to happen even if just go by the bypass, on a close center if the oil can't flow nothing happens can't tell if the pump is even pumping, so I like the open center. But some one said that you can not control the speed on you 1066 no way. Well I will have to make that a little clearer. First the tractor has to have a fast hitch or the not so great 3 point, same thing on the good old red. Any way from the 706 through the early 86's I think 1979 including the 656 and 544. There is a way to control the speed of the hydraulics, the remotes and the hitch fast or 3 point. Very simple way to do it from the seat all you need is a right hand, and no wrenchs. It works and can be used many ways. If you have a fast hitch you have to levers on to raise and lower the hitch and one for draft control. The in side lever raises and lowers the hitch and if you look at the quadrant you will see an offset at the bottom. As you move the lever down into that offset the hydraulics will start to slow and it you fo all the way down the hydraulics will stop altogether fast hitch as well as the remotes. Except for the 544 656 666 70 Hydro, I will not say about the 686 never saw one but I think they are the same these tractors may not completely stop. But the rest will stop all hydraulics if adjusted right. If you have a tractor book it will tell you that if you are plowing for instance in 3rd or lower gear you may want to move the lever down into the offset to slow the action of the hitch to help the ride. It can be used for the remotes as well. So can you adjust the speed yes will it harm anything no, it just dumps the oil to res.
