I was looking at the CL ads and saw a free hydraulic stuff thread.
We emailed and arranged a pickup.
I get there and find a really big setup.
It has a 3ph motor attached to two pumps that are piggy backed to each other about 4-5" diameter with 1" suction and 1/2" pressure.

The tank is about 24x12x36 so pretty big and heavy. I'm guessing 25 gal or so.
On top is a electric over hydraulic valve with about 4 banks.
Then there are two hydraulic motors and a pretty large Modine oil cooler maybe 12x18 with a electric fan.
He gave me a 5 gal can of hydro fluid too.
the tank is full of fluid and has sight glass etc.
It was off some sort of printing press so High volume lower pressure.
I am thinking around 600 psi.

I'm going to check the pumps to see what they are capable of.


Any ideas of what I could use it for in it's current state?

I don't need one but I can see the makings for splitzilla by adding a 18-20 hp motor and figuring out a way to run the fan across the cooler.
