was that a factory option? does the pump work off of the PTO?

By the looks of the pic, they have a mower drive on the pto, which is driving the pulley or direct driving the pump. Doubt it's a factory option.

cool splitter

Timberxx- It's not a factory option. It is homemade by that guy and yes the pump does run off of the pto. Gravely did have a Unicorn log splitter attachment though:

JS5020- You are correct! It does use a mower gearbox.

I saw a gravely with a backhoe a few years back on e-bay. That was cool. It was an aftermarket unit, but I can't remember who manufactured it.

Erich- Yes Gravely had Terramite make for them the backhoe attachment. It's not aftermarket. I know someone who has one and he dug the foundation to his house with it, worked great. This is not him but they are pics of a Gravely backhoe.

Hi guys.
The pic above is known as a T1 (actually a T1 1/2 w/the cylinders on the outriggers)
It is the first Terramite.It wasn't made for Gravely.
K.G. Cunningham built the first one using a Gravely in 1964.
More pics available at Terramite.com.
I have worked there for 26 years.
