MF 240 Constant pumping flow ?

[Pond digger]

Anybody know? I need to run a hand held post driver that requires 30 lt/min.

This any good. http://www.tractordata.com/farm-tractors/000/7/5/757-massey-ferguson-240.html

About 7 gallons per minute I believe

I've looked at this but don't know that it's much help re constant pumping output.

Thanks though.

unless you have a high flow linkage pump, which i doubt on a 240, or an auxilliary pump, i'm afrraid you will have no where near your requirement. A standard flow linkage pump will only supply 3.5 g/pm or 16 l/pm.

Ok, thanks.

I actually have a 135 that I was thinking of changing for the 240, if that would have served my purposes. The 240 has a pump flow of 32lt/m whereas the 135 does 17lt/m. Not sure how these figures relate to constant pumping volumes though.

As I said unless the 240 has a high flow linkage pump or an auxiliary pump it will be the same as a 135

Sounds like I need to look at a different tractor: any thoughts?
