John Deere 4520 Extra Hydraulic Notes
Hydraulic flow note
The John Deere 4520’s implement flow figure is about 42 GPM, so hydraulic attachment choice should be based on flow demand, not horsepower alone.
Hydraulic pressure note
Hydraulic pressure on the John Deere 4520 is 2,250 psi, but hydraulic performance depends on pressure and flow together.
Rear remotes / SCV note
Rear remotes / SCVs depend on the tractor’s hydraulic package and options.
For hydraulic implements, match the implement to the available hydraulic flow (42 GPM), not just the number of remotes.
Check the operator manual or hydraulic package because SCV count can change by year, market and trim package.
Hydraulic system type note
The John Deere 4520’s hydraulic system type is open-center, which is simple and common on many compact and utility tractors.
Hydraulic fluid capacity note
The John Deere 4520’s hydraulic fluid capacity is listed as 10.3 gal; check the operator manual before servicing because capacity can change with transmission, hydraulic options and market.
Official information note
Mistakes do happen. Hydraulic flow, pump flow, implement flow, pressure, rear remote / SCV setup and fluid capacity can change by year, market, transmission, pump option, loader package and hydraulic package. Please check the operator manual and official deere.com website for official information.
