I was just today looking at the new version which they are callling the SV100-7, I need to find out tomorrow exactly what changed with the hydraulics. I'll be running a prinoth head. I think it's the perfect machine for me dimensionally and proportionally and of course the reliability. I'll check back once I go over the hydraulic specs and what changed.
@@bmulching big changes to the hydraulics, they went to a 2 pump system with far more powerful flow, it’s now a load sensing system also, the key number is while running the mulching head in high flow it left roughly 24% for the stick functions, now it leaves roughly 82% for stick function, more than triple the previous system. Overall GPM went up to 36 and pressure up over 4000psi. This is coming from a yanmar corporate rep.
I have one as well. I don’t have the added weight of the mulcher. But I have to pull it behind my dump truck. Just looking at other options to haul it.
That would work and handle the weight well, but would struggle with speed and hills. It's a similar setup to what I have. Tows well and stable, good brakes, but underpowered. The biggest advantage is I can get my setup pretty much anywhere I can get a pickup and bumper pull trailer. You're just not getting there fast, lol!
Sounds like it'd be worth wiring in continuous switch into the momentary switch circuit. Holding the momentary switch for a few hundred hours doesn't sound like a great time!
Right, I'm saying figure out how to wire in a constant switch into the momentary circuit to prevent having to hold it the entire time. Since it's an electrical over hydraulic issue, I wonder if it's an adjustable parameter by the dealer?@@bmulching
Wiring in a different switch won't change it. The factory switch works fine, I show it in the video. The issue isn't electric over hydraulic, it's hydraulic demand. When the system is maxed out while in continuous flow the stick movement is impacted the most.
Apparently I'm doing a bad job of explaining... picture something that practically/figuratively held the momentary switch at whatever level you deem appropriate, but doesn't require you to physically hold the button after it's set. Like a rotary knob that worked the momentary functionality, but didn't require holding like the momentary slider/button. @@bmulching
best world is when you can combine both pump flow with a priority valve
8:00 I can confirm the 100-7 doesn't have the stick speed issue when using continuous flow.
Have you had yours on a flow meter? I’m just wondering what it’s actually sending to the head in high.
I haven't, but that would be interesting to know.

I heard the biggest changes are in the cab, which is a plus. Even if the hydraulic setup is the same I'm still happy with the machine overall.

What’re you toting this machine around with? Pickup or heavy duty?
It weighs about 24k lbs. I wouldn't pull it behind a pickup. I've got a semi and a 20 ton tag trailer with air brakes.

Heard a guy talking about hauling it behind an F750 with air brakes is why I asked.

Takeuchi is the same way with the stick while running a brush cutter and walking the machine. Pain in the ass.

It has the continuous switch from the factory, but when you lock in continuous flow the stick movement slows down drastically.
