ym1500 info on fitting a tipper pipe?

[billymc]

ok guys i have a green ym1500 ywo wheel drive i have a log splitter. will the tym 1500 run it? and if it will what conections and fittings do i need to do the job and where do you take the conection from? thanks

as they told me a few years ago it will run it, but the cycle speed will be painfully slow, as the pump does not pump much . U can splice into your main hydro lines like they do for a loader. Not sure if ur tractor ha ports on the valve like some others do but if so that could be an option. i know the hydraulic 3pt head has all kinds of ports on it on my ym2000 but no idea what there for.

I think the stock 1500 pump is good for about 3gpm. Your logsplitter should have a recommended gpm for operation. I'm thinking you will have to tap into you pump discharge line if you go that route. Remote hydraulic install on a Yanmar

Here is a link to a video from another website I used to go to that clearly explains how to do the tap into, although is kubota it will be the same principle,

He stated could have welded or brazed, However there are hard-line compression fitting available that work for this purpose as well,

thanks guys its a home made log splitter with a old excavator ram . my old mf35 was slow but could burst the logs no problem . other way im thinking is px the ym1500 fpor something a bit bigger with 4x4 and tipper pipe on it what compact do you guys think and what has a good pump for doing a log splitter? thanks Billy

i run one on a ym1600 runs good.i like it.i cut the line and go in and out.

have you give much thought in installing a self contained hydraulic circuit and fluid reservoir onto the log splitter? you could then use a PTO driven pump and would sure to give you all the gpm it needs, although note: that having moving parts ( PTO spinning ) while working at the rear of the tractor wouldn't be the safest method,

o the log splitter is a shared one with another farmer so not sure about that. as i said i was thinking of a bigger compact than the ym1500 as i could do with 4x4 for some jobs so i was thinking more on the line of one around 20+ hp and with a tipper pipe ? only thing close here are chinese siromer i think they are jinma or yto tractors any ideas?

 

[clemsonfor]

ok i give what is a tipper pipe? i ge the idea from context just never heard of remotes called that?
