Hi a’ll!!
So this may be a silly question but here it goes, so when i pick up an implement with it it takes too long so I’m wondering how to adjust it so it goes faster?

No tractor manufacturer offered such a thing until the early 1970's, like a 7030/50 Allis or 4430/4630 Deere.  A healthy D-21 hydraulic system should have 16.5 GPM oil flow at 2,000 psi at the remote outlets with the engine running 2,200 RPM's. If it is slow, you either have a weak pump lift section, a low PSI main relief valve, too large of diameter cylinder(s) you are trying to lift or the wrong couplers/hose tips on the back of the tractor. By comparison, a D-17 IV, 170-175-180-185-190-190XT-200 has 12 GPM at the rear outlets.

We hooked it on a 20’ deere disk and it has to be about half throttle to make it go up…
I’m not sure what would be normal but I want to make sure everything right.

Seems right- open her up ! That 426 sounds nice wide open! Thats how they work the best, and hydraulics should be faster,

Funny you should mention a Deere disc. Last time I had a serious tractor hydraulic complaint, the 7020 tractor was hooked to a Deere disc. Customer complained the hydraulics on his new 7020 weren't up to the task. His old One-Seventy loader tractor was better. I called his bluff. Made him back the old tractor over and hook up to the disc. It wouldn't raise it any higher than the 7020 did. I then greased the saddles on the discs axle tubes and then both tractors would lift the disc all the way up just fine.

I thought about that…
Also had it on a Deere field cultivator, did the same thing (both was greased up).
We have it on an auger right now and it slow with that too…
I have a tester that may give us an idea of how much pressure…
But I’m not sure how to test the gpms….

Are you absitively 100% positive you have proper and compatible hydraulic couplers and tips on the back end of the tractor ??  Also, I believe on the D-21 the two left outlets go to the left remote lever. The center two hoses go to the right remote lever.

Thinking about this, with the engine running at 1,100 RPM there should be 8.25 GPM out a remote coupler. I'd expect one 3"diameter x 8" stroke hyd cylinder to raise an implement in 3 seconds.

When I get it back I will confirm that everything is right and do some testing…
