What to do if the tank unloads slow on my H&S GM 170 Farm Equipment?

If your H&S Farm Equipment's tank unloads too slowly, the issue might be due to insufficient oil flow to the motors. Try increasing the tractor RPM speed. A plugged oil filter can also cause this problem, so replace the filter. Other potential causes include a defective hydraulic pump (replace it), a variable speed control valve that isn't fully open (open it more), a defective hydraulic motor (repair or replace it), oil that is too thin (replace it with heavier oil), or not enough oil flow to the hydraulic pump (change the oil filter, replace the oil, and fill to the proper level). Also, check for and tighten any loose connections to the motor.
