I'll email Split-Fire and see what they say about the back-pressure issue...

They likely won't have a clue what you are talking about.:laughing:

If you hook your splitter up to the FEL bucket and run the hoses to the BH ports it is a easy swap of hoses and you dont need to remove the BH.

I have the Ramsplitter unit with legs and the 3PT setup where I connect the top 3Pt pin to the center hook on the busket and 15' of Hyd hose to the rear BH connection. Pin up the BH and disconnect the hoses and connect the splitter hoses and you are splitting.

Actually... Split-Fire replied to my email about the 3PH back-pressure, and said "the splitter can withstand the pressure. [...snip...] I had to consult one of the engineers here about that question to make sure."

Nifty!

Hey I don't have any answers for you, I just want help from you! I have a backhoe that I built a subframe for, and it's mounted to my Kubota L3800 Gear drive. It's hooked to my 3rd function remotes and my electric solenoid valve (a D03 valve) is getting HOT. It's the remote kit on Ebay from immigrantpines. It works great for round baler gate and anything else that only needs ran for 1 minute at a time....
So I'd like to hook the hoe up a different way....without an electric valve that gets hot. I want to hook those lines up like yours is, and when hoe is off, just make a loop. Problem is-----I don't know enough to do what yours already is. can you help direct me to hook mine up like yours? I have Ansung 2540 FEL, and the hydraulic block by your right foot is pretty similar to Kubota FEL I think. ANY help would be appreciated!
If I hook it up that way (like yours is) will I have full power from the hydraulics? I don't care if knocks out FEL when hooked up, I want my hoe to dig with all its might. It's a 1978 LONG 1199B and is mounted up safely and securely (4 point attach). Just wonder if the ole' hose loop hook up "misses" any available power?

We have a 3 point splitter from Northern Tool ("Powerhorse") which I hook up to the Power Beyond backhoe port on an MX5100. No problem, 3 point hitch works fine for setting the height of the splitter. I have never tried to operate the splitter and 3 point at same time (it would actually take 2 people to reach both). My tractor does have rear remotes, but to run a splitter off a rear remote you have to bungee the valve open to get continuous flow.
