Install this #10 MB plug to
run open center. Valve will
allow all oil to pass through
it, then divert necessary oil
to the hydraulic motor.
Install this cavity plug to run
closed center. Valve will allow
all oil motor needs to pass
through.
Tractor Hydraulic Requirements
The hydraulic drive motors require a maximum of 7 gallon per minute of hydraulic oil at a maximum
pressure of 1500 psi. Average oil requirement is usually less then 5 gallon per minute.
With minor modification the drive PWM valve will function with a tractor equipped with a closed or open
center hydraulic system. Contact your tractor dealer to determine which hydraulic system your tractor
may have. Most recently manufactured tractors are equipped with a closed center hydraulic system.
The PWM valve is shipped with the closed center cavity plug installed.
Tractors with open center system:
1. When running in series with another
hydraulic motor, such as a planter fan motor.
The SureFire valve must allow all oil going
through the fan to pass through it. The
SureFire valve will be ‘open center’ and
divert the necessary oil to the SureFire
hydraulic motor.
2. When running in series with two SureFire
valve/motor combinations. This might
happen in the case of two seed drives or two
pumps. Each valve needs to let excess oil
pass through so the second valve has plenty
of oil to accomplish its necessary task.
Tractors with closed center system:
1. When running this valve by itself from a
tractor hydraulic remote. By running closed
center, the SureFire valve will use the
minimum amount of oil and cause the least
oil circulation and heating. This leaves the
most oil for other hydraulic functions.
2. When running off power beyond hydraulic
ports, the valve must be closed.
