I think I mentioned on a different thread a couple of weeks ago, I went to an auction and bought a 3 point log splitter. The way it's set up, it mounts on the 3 point with the beam horizontal sticking out the back and plugs into a dual remote on the tractor. You then tie the lever on the tractor and run the splitter off it's own control valve. It has a 4X24 cylinder. I figured I'd run it off my D19 Allis.
I mounted it on the D19 and timed the stroke. 20 seconds each way, or 40 seconds for a complete cycle.
I have an H Farmall that still has the belly pump, but it's been re-plumbed for dual hydraulics. I pulled the H alongside, plugged the splitter in, and timed it. Exactly half the D19, 10 seconds each way and 20 seconds for a complete cycle. I would have bet money it would have been the other way around.
I split some with the H, and it worked fine. I suspect, though, that eventually the oil would thin out and cause the pressure to drop, although I've backfilled two basements with the loader on the H. Backfilling probably uses the hydraulics as hard as splitting.
Probably wouldn't take too much more to mount a separate pump and tank to run off the PTO.
