485 is rated at 15.9 or 17 (optional) gpm vs 13 gpm for a JD 2150. My experience with both the older IH inline and later H pattern shifters is that they worked really well with good speeds and syncromesh. The inline shifter linkage could be an issue if it is worn out but the entire mechanism can be rebuilt or fully replaced pretty easily. The transmissions, ptos, and rearends on these models have a reputation for being bullet proof in my area and parts and prices are excellent. I will admit to only personally owning two (454 and 684) and have nothing against Masseys, JD, or. Ford. We have owned older Masseys and still own a ford 5610. I considered buying a JD 2150 but the few around were several times the price of the other comparable makes. Most of the various manufacturers made some excellent models and all have some quirks to watch for. Find a model in the required size that has been well cared for and it will serve you well for years.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
