Hello there,
I've had some good advice from guys on the site over the years , have now re-registered after losing the original email account.
I've at last given up my home made splitter/Ferguson tractor rig and have started building a small trailer type splitter.
Many folk seem to use a power pack for their splitter, I've been looking at a JCB Beaver power pack with a Honda GX270 engine but it doesnt seem to have a big enough hydraulic tank for a splitter with a 24"x 4" or even a 14" x 4" ram. I can't see that a power pack could work as well as a lo/hi 16gpm pump either.
Can some kind person enlighten me on how the power pack performs.
TIA
