    Thanks Nige. Any chance you could run this serial number to see if this one has high flow also? CAT0289DJJX903564

    Nige, what is it that you look for on the build codes to tell if the machine is high flow? When I run my serial JX906827 I see nothing about the hydraulic package. Machine has the original decals on it that say high flow xps.

    It’s not exactly intuitive. It all relies on knowing that a High Flow machine has 2 implement pumps; a variable displacement piston-type pump backed up by a fixed-displacement gear pump. In comparison a non-HF machine only has a single (although larger) gear pump. So if you look at the as-built machine consist the top line is 588-9190 “Distribution Arrangement”. You will find that arrangement includes a 588-9134 Configuration Arrgt. Dig into that group and you will find 512-4319 Hydraulic Arrgt. In that group you will find 433-4172 “Pump & Mtg Gp - Work Tool” which clearly shows a piston-type pump backed up by a gear pump. Ergo the machine is High Flow. Simples……..
