135man

203 X 133 X 30kg/m

Would that be plenty strong ?

What would be the best size Rsj 8x4 or 10x6

Weren't you looking to run a tractor log splitter in another post? Ringing up enough to keep that fed with an MS181 will get old very quickly....

 

What do you want to use the saw for?

I want a saw for cutting up small stuff have a lot of goats willow around these parts and want a log splitter for big stuff. A neighbour brought me a lot of pig pine that fell in storms here, nobody around these parts (Southern Ireland) has a log splitter as people burn peat most of the time

Going getting a new saw and had a look at this saw what are they like I'm a newbie with chainsaws normally get a fella in to cut wood for me but would like to cut for myself when needed thanks

A neighbour is clearing land here which has a lot of goats willow and he asked me do I want it, I was just wondering is this good firewood thanks

It depends on what specification you have for the pump.

 

180L is a huge tank but if you are running a big pump at maximum duty cycle with no cooler then it might not be out of the way, if however, say the duty cycle is lower the heat build up wont be anything like the same.

 

Rather than a huge (expensive) tank and a couple of hundred quids worth of oil your money would probably be better spent in a much smaller tank with an oil cooler

 

As I said much depends on the duty cycle, if you are only using your machine for a couple of hours at a time, provided the oil doesn't get too hot all will be well, if it does get too hot you can always add an oil cooler later

Does flowfit sell oil coolers and pto pumps also what tank would be the best I was thinking of the tank with all the accessories as I've a complete novice about building hydraulics !!

I was on to flowfit and they said I need a 180L tank is this too big I see a lot of pto log splitters and the tank doesn't seem too big!

HI MATE all down to how large the ram is on splitter thanks jon

The log splitter ram is 16.5 ton ram, 100mm bore 50mm rod and 400mm stroke

Hello I'm new to this. I'm going making a log splitter and I will be running it off my tractors pto a mf 135 I'm just wondering what capacity tank I would need for hydraulic oil and where would I pick up a pto pump thanks.
