A few months back I purchased a used Huskee 27T log splitter. I've come to realize that this splitter has the filter on the suction side rather than the return side. It appears to have been manufactured this way as others I have seen have the same setup. So, if doable, is there any value in changing this setup to a return side setup? As it is, changing the filter is a pain as fluid will flow out. I am thinking of adding a shutoff valve. The fluid in the unit looks clean n was recently changed according to the previous owner. Can I save the fluid and reuse if it looks clean? Can different fluids be mixed? I have no idea what fluid was used any idea what I should use? The filter on the unit looks like it has never been changed.
I am going to fabricate an in feed n out feed table to help manage the splitting. Anyone have a free standing or attached crane, that may work with this splitter, to lift heavy rounds? If yes, please post a picture. I have some heavy rounds I will be splitting n I prefer to work with unit horizontal rather than vertical. Thanks
