John Deere GT242 Extra Hydraulic Notes

Hydraulic flow note The John Deere GT242’s implement flow figure is about 8 GPM, so hydraulic attachment choice should be based on flow demand, not horsepower alone.
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 (8 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.
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.
