Engine mounted hydraulics
Hey fellas,
On the topic of engine-mounted hydraulic pumps, I'd like to mount one and run a hydraulic pump on an electric clutch. I'd like to use it to run a snow plow and a log splitter off the hydraulics.
Something like this: High Pressure Hydraulic Clutch Pump — 2.32Cu In. | Pumps | Northern Tool + Equipment
What kind of pressures and GPM's do snow plows use?
I see the heavy duty homeowner log splitters are running around 12 gpm of flow, while the heavier duty models are running around 24 gpm.
Any suggestions on pressures and GPM?

you can get away with running a plow but your going to need to build a valve body either manual or solinoid, youll have to just convert the lift cyl to a regular hyd ram, the power angle rams should still work. as for a log splitter you would have a hard time running it off an engine drivin belt drive pump. youll want a high flowing pump, and your gunna need a pretty big oil tank. if you wanna do that id say run a pto pump.

Deweze offers complete kits 2 to 17 GPM. Plumbing would be standard hydraulics. You would need some sort of selector valve arrangement These kits use the same style of pump you would use on a PTO mount. Here is a link... htttp://www.deweze.com/deweze/OEM/OEM.html
