Question I hope a good soul can help me out with.

I have a Kubota B2620 with BH65 backhoe and about 60 hours on it. Absolutely love it.

Would like to add a 3pt log splitter to it. Something like Wallenstein WX310. Wallenstein WX310, WX350, WX360, WX370 PTO Logsplitters
Couple of questions for those in the know versus a guy like me who only thinks he is in the know.

1) I belive the tractor has an open center hydro system. Is this correct?

2) I also believe all I need to do to get a splitter like this to work (splitter is open center) is disconnect the Backhoe and plumb the 2 existing lines into the splitter. Does it matter which hose gets plumbed into which port of the splitter? if so how does one know which hose to which side of the splitter valve?

3) I was told a rear remote is not required as I plumb into the existing BH lines is sufficient?

thanks in advance
