    Coupling 5.5hp honda to a hydraulic pump

    Hello, I have a 5.5hp honda that I want to run a logsplitter from. It has previously powered a 3" water pump, and the engine has a threaded shaft. I can't seem to find anything that will couple a spline or keyway shaft (eg a hydraulic pump) onto an engine with a threaded shaft. Any help is...

    What do I call the quick connectors on my tractor?

    I bought a 3PL Logsplitter that works off the tractors hydraulics. Tomorrow I am going to be buying some hoses to connect it up, as it didn't come with any. I have elbow fittings that fit the splitters control valve, which I will take to the hydraulic shop, but what do I tell them the other...

    Hello, I have a NH TT75 which yesterday started leaking hydraulic fluid. I don't know much about hydraulics (or tractors for that matter), but looking through some loader valve parts manuals (not for my tractor, but to figure out the names of the parts). Anyway, its leaking from between the...

    Best way to retrieve this log

    We had a bad storm go through and know down alot of trees. We cut logs out of most everything that was good, as we'll use it one day. Problem I have is a couple real nice looking trees that came down across a small gully. I've attached a (pretty crappy) drawing of the situation. The trees...

    New water bore

    Hi everyone, We had a new water bore drilled at my dad's place (400 acres), near where he wants to build a house. Its Queensland, Australia - so its called a bore, and not a well :) Anyway, the driller chose the spot in the first picture (look close for the wire in the ground). He said...
