PTO HP is not really relevant with these units. The HYD pump PSI rating is a better correlation to the splitter's capacity. This specific tractor puts out 2500 psi, IIRC.
The two machines with winch / skidder, chipper and splitter help me (IE: do most of the work) put up 20+ cord a year.

Thank you very much for the info...I took a much more detailed look at your first pictures and now see the hydraulic hook-ups just to the rear of the seat. That is exactly how my back-hoe and front end loader work. I just wasn't sure if the splitter had it's own hydraulics powered by the PTO. The design makes perfect sense.
Also, is the rig you put on the other tractors 3 point hitch custom? I really like the concept.
Thanks!
