I’m planning on getting an air seeder to pull with a Case 2470 open center tractor. While there are a few seeders around with small engines, I've never seen one close up. Most seeders have a hydraulic fan needing 8 – 10 gpm flow, and I’d like to get a hydraulic fan, then upgrade to a closed center tractor as soon as I can. The 2470 has 1000 PTO. I’m looking at either building a PTO powered hydraulic set up….pump, tank etc, or I can put a small engine on the tow behind air cart, either with a hydraulic pack on it or maybe even direct drive the fan with a v belt. Fan needs to maintain 2800 – 4000 rpm. I’m also looking at pull type sprayers, so it would be good if I could also use the same thing to drive a hydraulic sprayer pump on open center tractors. Any one have any experience with building a PTO or small engine hydraulic power pack for constant load? Thanks, Chris

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
