log splitter off FEL pump

[DLinMI]

I'm not sure of the flow rate of the pump. I can't find the info that matches exactly. It's an Eaton 26000-500C, I'll attach pic, and the splitter requires 6-25 gpm at 1500-2500 psi, thanks for all replies

What's the cylinder size of your splitter? That information will tell us what you need for flow.

on my MF203 the front pump for the FEL puts out close to 16 gpm. The loader control valve has the port for the power outlet to hook up the backhoe. You need to get the fitting from the dealer and then use that for the splitter. Also you need to connect a return line back to the fluid tank and you are in business

I suspect that pump number is a casting number. Are there any numbers stamped on the housing anywhere? Eaton 26000 series covers a broad range of displacements.

Good stuff!!! Great post!!!!

The cheapest and simplest would be to add a quick connect to the loader curl portion of the valve,
run a longer hose from the splitter to the quick connect, take the return from the splitter valve and just attach to a tank connection.
Does your loader have it's own reservoir in the loader framework, make sure your return goes to the tank your front pump draws from.

Yes it does.

Tractor isn't home now, probably won't be able to check until this weekend

Is this where that might hook up? If not does anyone know what this would be for? Thanks everyone for your time.

This is the curl side, I wonder if I could tap in here?

If I was to guess that may be a pressure relief setting.

I would remove the curl line add a quick connect female to the valve body and a male to the existing curl line and the splitter pressure line,
the curl function would not work while the splitter was being used.
