    Should be Double acting(D.A). That means that the oil is pumped under pressure through both strokes of a service ram attached i.e it extends under full pressure and retracts under full pressure, pressurised oil on both sides of the ram slider seal, depending on wether the lever is pulled or pushed.

    Single acting is where oil is pumped out at full pressure when the lever is moved one way and flows back under gravity/by the action of the load returning the ram when the lever is moved the other way.

    4 spools and 2 levers is D.A. 4 spools and 4 levers would be S.A. UNLESS, your hydraulics are plumbed to give 2 S.A spools operated by the one lever, but that's unlikley.

    AFAIK there's a supplementary gear(s) that goes in the back end to alter the ratios as well as a 1000 rpm shaft itself. Not as simple as whopping in a new shaft. That's if it's an after-production option to uprate on your model, which I'm far from 100% that it was. You may be stuck with 540. I know one lad who took a 1000 rpm hydraulic set-up and made it work, but that was on an older 7700 and took a lot of spannering(I helped, but it was ages ago)
