IH fan said: (quoted from post at 02:36:33 03/03/09) The valves would operate a loader, but the pump is small and depending on the cylinder diameter, might be slow operating. Also if the one you are looking at has power steering, it "robs" flow from the pump through a "prioity flow divider valve" that would slow a loader even more. Mine has an external loader pump, so the tractor pump operates the PS, 3 point and aux. valves.
If the one you are looking at has the optional 3 point, it would mount and run the log splitter, or you could use one of the Aux. valves and forget the pto pump. You are going to be sitting still when using the splitter, so the non-independant pto would not cause a problem. Only problem would be mounting the splitter if it has the Fast Hitch and not 3 point. There are adaptors out there to use it as a 3 point... not sure how easy they are to find or what it would cost.
All I use on mine is the loader and a rear blade... it has the factory optional 3 point.
Thanks again for the reply, I'm still confused about the "non independent" PTO though. I'm used to terms like "live" and "ground speed" With the woodsplitter we are sitting still of course lol. and have it set in live with the tractor trans in neutral. and tractor running prob 1800. Willl this 240 do this? Im not too worried if the tractor doesnt have a 3pt which I'm not sure whether or not is does yet. But I'm sure I can fabricate a 3 pt conversion if it hasnt already been done. My friend didnt say what it has I'm sure he assumed it was like most tractors.
