What's new

Slow down hydr cylinder?

The Bobcat, Deere, Cat, and Tak machines I've run aren't like that. Never run a CAT though.
That was my point, they could have been but weren't configured that way.
I don't know the actual answer to that question but just saying it's totally possible from 1990 to 2024 to get ON/OFF controls.
 
What type of fittings are on the cylinder? JIC, ORFS, or NPT?
Haven’t looked at it yet-
This is on a sickle-bar mower, pivot is offset to the side. When I hit the thumb switch, the bar jumps 30+ degrees, bump the switch the other way it jumps 30- deg. Impossible to get the arm at the angle you need. I am out of town now, when I get back will post pictures. Thanks

this is whats on my bucket, works good.
 
they show one way or two way. two way is restricted both ways
 
I'd either add orificed fittings or flow controls. Officer fittings are cheap.
They made inline orfices for JIC, NPT and probably others.

Had a Chineese snowplow similar deal you had with too fast. Like $10 of fittings fixed it.
 
Ok all 4 hose ends look unremarkable. Looks like pipe thread in the cyl & male flare to the hose end.

They make orifices for hydraulics that are built into a 1/2" swivel fitting...
