Dont some deeres run out of oil tipping big trailers everyday unless the option tank is fitted, do they wreck the pump everyday?

This was apparently completely unknown to the most fervent objector. The one who has studied engineering, which I suspect was mostly in bridge building.
Think they may have had separate hydraulic systems though. Have little knowledge regarding green junk

The amount of oil contained in the optional tank was very little and certainly not enough to independently tip a trailer.

It is to add to the existing oil to enable them to tip 14t trailers, the local rep had to be shown by the workshop to make sure he speced it every time.

Precisely.

Not if you keep the revs up on that last stage of the hoist, the inertia prevents cavitation as the fluid is travelling too quickly to stop and read a book about it

So high revs enable it to find more oil and the optional tank is not needed?

I am not sure. But during my time in haulage, watching those pedal-pushers put up their hoists with engines revving and just a poor little outboard PTO pump eating the last remnants of oil, the idea of a submersed high quality tractor pump shrapnelling at idle is so obviously that - an idea
Lightning could strike too, it would be better to be hiding under the machine surrounded by tubs full of granda's baleband and your missing brake linings in that case
