John Deere 420C Extra Hydraulic Notes

Hydraulic flow note With about 23 GPM implement flow, the John Deere 420C sits in the utility tractor hydraulic range and is best suited to larger loaders, rear remotes and more demanding implements, depending on pressure and valve setup.
Hydraulic pressure note The John Deere 420C’s hydraulic pressure is listed at 1,250 psi, which is lower-pressure; flow still decides attachment speed while pressure affects force.
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 (23 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 420C uses a open-center hydraulic setup, so compatibility depends on both the attachment and valve configuration.
Hydraulic fluid capacity note The John Deere 420C’s hydraulic fluid capacity is listed as 7.5 qt (1.9 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.
