No I have not and yes I think that is the factory setting. At this point, there's not a single original hydraulic part on this tractor. It has a front pump, all cylinders are new or rebuilt new type. All lines and fittings are new.

I will have to get a guage if I adjust anything, but I'm not sure it's needed???

Do you think I need to??

Yes, definitely. High pressure on the pump will most likely blow the center section of them pump. For the price of pump repair, you can buy a pressure gauge, and if need be an auxilliary bypass, and still have plenty of money left over.
Hyd pressure gauge is easy to find. Prior to testing, make sure you find the bypass on the valve, and back it down as far as it will go. If the valve is set for 2250PSI, you will likely break the pump when you deadhead it against the gauge the first time. Also keep in mind that most modern valves will only go down to 1500PSI. If this is the case, you will need to put a bypass in the pressure line prior to the valve somewhere.

I'm probably going to save some grief. The local hydraulic shop is setting up a bypass valve, set at 1100, which will go in the pressure line just ahead of the valve. Parallel return line back to the tank. Very clean set up.
Thanks,
Gus

That will save you some potential headaches and dollars later.

I have a video of the first drive out the door. I was working air out of the hydraulics but it's not bad.

The problem is that it's a big file and it would take forever with my slow connection. Any ideas how to overcome that problem?

Upload it to a site like YouTube or PhotoBucket, then simply post the link to it on here.

Upload is the problem. I have a slow internet connection. I don't know how to overcome that problem.

I set up a youtube acct and tried to upload....it said 220 mins....for a 4 min video (66 MB)?????????

I don't know if the cause is the internet connect I have or the Sony camera. I do know I will never buy a Sony or Olympus anything. They both seem to be hybrids all their own and don't interchange with the rest of the world.

Most times, the "time" that it states is not correct and it actually takes less time. That is a calculation based on a fixed set of numbers.
Set it up to upload to YouTube late night when you are not going to be using the Internet and "traffic" is lower.
It will let you know the next morning if the uoload was successful.

Sorry, but I give up. I'm just wasting time. After a 7 hour up load it says it can't open the file

The file opens on every computer I've put it on and it opens on every DVD player on the TV.

Gus,

See if you can use another computer. You either have a poor connection, a virus, or something going on that is preventing it from uploading.
In the days before high speed Intertnet, it was nothing for it to take severa hours on a large upload.
If it ran for 7 hours, something is wrong.

I had to copy it from the disc to a hard drive then load. It's actualy the first half of the drive.
