Ok I totally forgot to mention that part. I'll give you an example on how those units are use over here.
It's pretty common here to use 3 point mounted log splitters that are powered of the PTO with these units. The gearbox is mounted on the log splitter with the proper hydraulic pump and the it's connected to the tractor via a PTO shaft.
Here you can see the unit on the top of the log splitter.

And this is a bigger one, where they kinda hide the unit on the log splitter.
Yeah it must be reverse rotation. I can't see the space there for an idle gear. So this mean you would have to take that in account when buying the pump.

This is just an example. There are inumerous ways to use these things.
