Hydraulic experts needed
 

Hi all,
I’m starting the process of a hydraulic powered rear sickle mower.
Would also like this pump to run a log splitter if possible. So if someone could recommend a pump and motor for this application or direct me to somebody’s
website that has the charts or whatever to help decide.
Pump to be mounted under the front PTO and tank to be placed wherever I need it to.
Just need a place to get started, cause I have no skills in the world of hydrolics.
I have every other tool needed for the fabrication. (CNC mills,lathes, waterjet)

Thanks

Terry, go to "My Tractor Forum" and scroll down through the sub forums until you get to the "hydraulics" section. There are several people who can help you. Post a thread with your questions.... I'm sure you will get lots of help. There is a man that goes by "Tudor" who has a wealth of knowledge regarding most anything related to hydraulics.

What he said just be patent with all of the ad's on MTF :bash2:

Ad blocker helps, no more ads for me.

:IH Trusted Hand:

I would be glad to figure it out WITH you, but take the Intelligent masses opinion of MTF or WTF or WGAF... either way Im sure they are way more intelligent than any one here, just ask anyone here...:BlahBlah:

Just the man I was looking for! :beerchug:
I was hoping for a learning experience from this.
My only thought so far is that the log splitter would drive the train on the pump choice cause the sickle mower can’t take much power to run( at least that’s what I think based on the fact I used to mow hay with a IH C that had a 9ft? bar.

As soon as it’s light out tomorrow, I will snap pics of the sickle mower. It’s a mid mount Haban (I don’t know the number) that’s going to be made into a rear mount and attached to a 782 or my other 2182. Hence not wanting to use rear PTO. Plus it will be unique being hydro run.

Here is the mower. I see it’s a 402. Going to be a lot of brackets I’m not going to use.

Well I've basically got a hydraulic PTO figured out that Im hoping to incorporate into the design of my three point hitch. But the components should work with your sickle mower as well! Just got home, I'll have to dig through my notes.
