8n hydrolic optional hookup

[MG-8n]

I am wondering if on the 8n there is an extra port off the pto hydrolic pump that can be used for a wood spliter that mounts on the 3 point hitch. any thoughts

If you want to run a wood splitter off an N tractor you need to be looking at PTO hydro pumps.

Maybe a front mount stinger, or a "live" add on would work.

MG......NO, the corner pressure test port does NOT have the volume (2.8gpm) ...or... the pressure (1700psi) needed to operate a wood splitter, let alone the fact tractor engine burns much more gas than 1-cyl splitter engines. Besides, to gitt hydraulic power out the corner pressure port, ya haffta "chain" yer 3-point lift arms DOWN. Howsomevers; they make dandy 3-point lift mounted wood splitters ...or... you can tow yer splitter with the 11-hole towbar ......Dell

pressure and volume of the internal pump are both way too low for a wood splitter.
Like Dunk says either a pto or stinger pump will work fine.
We use the 11 gpm pto pump from Northern Tool, it works great, will split most anything.

I was wondering where to find those pics.

Wouldn't Zane's "live hydraulics" pump also do the job?

There is a good possibility that it "might" but it is a v-belt drive, prone to slippage.

I have no idea of the GPM, or pressure that can be obtained with the "Zane Live Thang".

Most of Zane's stuff is a secret, a mystery, if you will, until you buy it.

I will give that the "Zane Thang" for position control on a 9N, 2N, looks 10 times the quality of the http://redrockmfg.com equivalent.

TOH puts his design, and specs, in the open, and even offers different options.

Check out my conversion kits: [u:4f0f3285f4]Hokie Hydraulics[/u:4f0f3285f4]

It's designed for your exact purpose and costs about the same as a PTO pump by the time all is said and done. Unlike the PTO pump you also get a conversion to live hydraulics and you don't loose the use of your PTO. It's a much more versatiile and general purpose solution, always on the tractor tucked out of the way iunder the hood, and uses the tractor's internal hydraulic reservoir as it's oil supply.

Belt slippage is not a problem with my live hydraulics set up. If you understood hydraulics you would know that it is all about volumes and surfaces. The pump is a very low volume and the work piece is normally very high volume. A little bit can push a lot more in the high volume but just takes longer to do it. Power you get! Belt no slip!

The reason that I wanted not to post picture os my Zane Thang position control device was to try and prevent knockoffs and copycats. The guy you mentioned that is making one first bought one of mine and then tried to do the same thing from a differnet direction. I'm sure his will work after a fashion. In fact I have drawings from back them when I was trying to come up with an affordable working model that would be easy enough to make and easy to install that is almost exactly like the other ones you mentioned. I didnt' like that design then amd I still don't. I have other designs of the position control too but none seemed to me to be practicle at the time or easy to install or work as good.
I appreciated the Members of the forum honoring my request that the pictures not be published. I'm sure it has helped me sell a few and I'm sure it has kept many from being copied by others. After all, it was my idea. Isn't there something in this country that honors and protects a persons inteletual property???

There are several other of my ideas that have been copied too you know! That's the american way I guess but lets give credit where credit is due.

All that anyone, that wants to see it, has to do, is go to Google images, and type in Zane Thang.

There are even installation pics.

Myself, I would never buy a "pig in a poke" out of pure principal.

(I have no use for one, I have an 8N)

If I wanted to copy it, for resell, I would gladly buy the prototype.

I guess our thinking is just different, no problem on that.

I'll go you one even better than that.

I could, if I desired, post pics, or the links to them, of the Zane 8N lift adjustment jig, proto type.

Don't beleive me, make me prove it.

If there are things on the Internet, and I want to find them, I usually can.
