The Old Hymac is not the quickest beast around in any function. If you have a lot to do you might be better looking more modern.
Our old 580D is equiped with a dipper boost pedal which I suppose could be diverted to run an extra service. I cannot offhand remember which other service it is associated with. It could be annoying if you wanted to operate a particular service at the same time.
