I tried belt driven hydraulics on a cherry picker and it seemed to need the belts replaced and tightened all the time, I have gone the hydraulic PTO route off the back of the transfer box now, trouble free :)

I had the same problem when I put a powerpack on the sawbench, basically the pulleys have to be so large a diameter for the belt to take the torque of any large pump that it's impractical without multi vee belts.

 

Having said that the Ahwi had Vee belts and that delivered all the 400hp.

One of my mates has got a hydrolic winch on his utility 110 & he had it pipped up for running tools etc but the place that fitted them didn't recommend running a long splitter for any length of time becouse the hydro tank is very small and would get very hot,

I was thinking of doing the same on my 110 cherry picker as it's got a large hydro tank & can run all day no prob but like already said its cheeper & easer to just run of a porta pack,
