I started with a RAYCO as my base splitter - they didnt make many but really good base - I redid engine and hydraulics. For hydraulics, I have tandem pump which allows me to have 1 handle with low pressure and high flow (both pumps) and a separate lever that only has 1 pump but high pressure...

find a used Rayco - Awesome

The 3 to 1 rule of thumb is based on running a hydraulic motor when you have system pressure & high pump flow at 100% duty cycle. Splitter's are different being that of not having a 100% duty cycle both on the pressure and flow. Some people tend to lower the RPMs while they are staging /...

Sounds like you have a good start on components. The cooler I have available has a bracket to hold the hydraulic filter along with the filter housing. Coolers are the most missed components in a splitter, everyone relies on the hydraulic tank to dissipate the heat into the hyd oil. Having a...

RT - Are you still working on your splitter project? One suggestion is to run a cooler - will reduce the air in your oil, keep your temps low and add capacity. I run a 15 gallon hyd tank w/ dual (tandem) 17 GPM pumps and a 25HP gas engine. No issues. I have a low cost cooler for sale - check...

See picture of my wedge Note how the vertical is first to hit - split A lot of thought went into my wedge and it has paid off

If you design the end right, you can split some knarly stuff The key is to stage when the knives come in contact with the log

Hello fellow members, I have a left over hydraulic cooler from my recent splitzilla project (monster rayco conversion). Aluminum cooler with steel frame to make it easy for mounting on your splitter, also included is a filter mount on the steel frame. From memory the cooler can handle +30GPM...

Pictures of wedge Note - the wedge has a welded tang so you can attached a cylinder to raise and lower for desired logs

Hello fellow log burners, I bought a Rayco LS2526 log splitter and am not using the factory 4 way wedge. contact me at 262-719-4047 - accepting offers If you do not have a 4 way wedge but want one for your log splitter project, you could reverse engineer but starting with the 4 way wedge...

Unplug the electro magnet clutch, make a jumper harness with alligator clips, connect one alligator clip to negative post of good 12V battery. touch other alligator clip to the positive post. You will then determine with known good voltage source whether or not your clutch is latching /...

6way 6way 6way - I have a modified Rayco splitter with a 6 way wedge and it works AWESOME Did you already decide / put plans in place for a wedge? I have the 4 way factor rayco if you want to buy it for a starting point or maybe just use as is.

I love it - i will try to take a video, just landed in china so it will be sometime next week

Thanks to the membersout there that helped me with my questions! I appreciate your time you gave me Now off to make some sweet heat! Can't wait to split wood and fill up my bins

Well i finally finished the 6 way for my rayco - i ran a large ash thru it and seems to work good. Thinking about adding another horizontal edge high but for now i need to clean up a bunch of cut pieces. I will try to post a picture below. I will likeky be selling the rayco 4 way wedge

Sam - the mid inlet allows you to have the upstream sectional valves with only the flow of the one pump and the down stream sections will be pump 1 and 2. I have a tandem 16 gpm pump with 25 hp engine. My log lift, adjustable wedge lift, and high pressure ram control will be supplied by 16...

Sam - I didn't have time to read the thread, but will suggest an idea since you have a tandem pump (kind of like my project). What you can do is run one pump to your low flow functions including one section for your ram at the 3250 psi then your second pump gets fed to a mid inlet combiner...
