Would high flow help a 10 inch auger to be less likely to stall in extremely hard soil? Seems like high flow spins the bit faster in reasonable density soil, but ultimately it won't have any more torque when digging in very hard dirt. Is this correct?
The Blue Diamond augers have built in planetary gear boxes to maximize the output torque. Our augers are work best when running near 60 RPM’s, so you can use the link to our torque spec sheet to see whether your low flow or high flow will provide greater torque. Find the model that will get you as close to 60 RPM with your hydraulic flow and the torque will be shown in the right column. www.bluediamondattachments.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Torque-_-Extreme-Duty-S2-Auger.pdf.

MOMS It depends on attachment... some require a lot of oil that standard flow can’t supply. Machine could run but this would create a lot of heat and ruin ur machine and attachment
Thank you for the video. It fixed my problem
How much gpm is gained in the larger fittings
Can I hurt my machine if I attach it wrong like you said?

You didn’t even cover the title of your video. I clicked on this to understand what high flow was and still don’t know. Great job🙄
But what is the advantage of having a “High Flow” system?
Keeping the RPM’s up or?

More gpm. On some machines it could be 13-15 more gpm on high flow.
You stated the problem, but what is the solution?
Switch the couplers on implement, worked well for me
