How you split it depends on the equipment available.
We always split the speed transmission out with the engine. If you have a stand that will roll the transmission out from under the cab that is acceptable too.
charlieu's stand looks really nice and addresses having to support the clutch housing once it's out.
As for the 20 hours....as Owen and tractor vet pointed out...ain't gonna happen in that time. Usually a bunch of other stuff needs done while you're there.
One thing we used to find in 1486s was the range countershaft bearings loose.
If there is slop there, the range counter shaft bearings can be replaced and adjusted while split for a TA job.
Question for other techs...what do you do when the owner sends a tractor to you and the cab is full of clutter and/or there's all sorts of extra monitor or control harnesses run in a fashion that makes it extremely dificult to do the work?
