Can I run a 12 row JD 7200 vac planter with a 7040? Not concerned about being able to pull it, but rather the hydraulic requirements of the planter and the lack of hydraulic remotes. Would Power Beyond be a possibility with a 7040 or just run a PTO pump? Thanks for your input.

we had run a power beyond on our john deere 4440. as far as your allis 7040 i am not sure if it would have enough hydraulic flow or capacity to keep the oil cool

I know people are doing it. The 7040 has plenty of flow and was designed for that type of use. Hopefully you'll get some replies with tips on how to set it up correctly.
