Speeco Splitter

[sawguy21]

Without other modifications, a bigger engine won't help much. The pump output and pressure remains the same and cylinder size is fixed. I tried modifying a 5 hp unit, the boss had installed a 4 way splitter but the machine didn't have the oomph needed. I installed an 8 hp and cranked down the relief valve, good thing the ram bent before a hose blew in my face.

Well thanks for THAT bit of info, I totally forgot about needing a bigger pump for a bigger engine, would I need a bigger ram too?
Not being sarcastic, just asking in case.

Just picked up a brand new Husky 22t w/ B&S engine today. My father-in-law's girlfriend bought it for him for Christmas. I wish it was mine though but I am just storing it temporarily!

Are you sure it's for him?? I won't tell.  :Mrs_Claus:

I would store it in the yard next to my unsplit log pile. If he asked, I would tell him the warranty period is running, so you figured you would help him out by seeing if it had any warranty issues. wink wink

I really wish I could try it out but promised to just hide it until Christmas. It sure is tempting though. Always fun to try out a new toy!
