I am planning to adapt a county line splitter to my kioti lk3054 tractor.what is involved and I understand the support legs on this splitter is inadequate.

I did the opposite, I took a tractor mounted splitter and added a 5hp motor. Running a thirsty tractor to do what a small motor will do was a waste of tractor hrs. and fuel. It's also nice to have the tractor free to move wood, bark, etc.
You didn't ask but, I thought that I might share my experience. I'm sure others may feel differently...Mike

I would be surprised if you had the thru put to run a gas splitter on tractor hydraulics. Tractor is probably putting out 8 or 9 gpm while the gas splitter has a two stage pump running maybe double that gpm. I am sure there are others on here better equipped to answer your question than I, but you should check the gpm required by the gas splitter.
