I have a L3200 with front end loader and
backhoe. I just purchased a county line log splitter from TSC for the three point hitch. Shouldn't the lines used for the backhoe also work for the log splitter?

One other issue is the splitter had been outside for some time. When I removed the plastic plugs from the valve it does have some minor rust inside. Is there a filter between the return line on backhoe and reservoir? The unit was sold as new so if thats an issue they should replace the valve.

TSC replaced the valve. Had 96" lines made so I don't have to remove the backhoe to hook it up. Will make the base sturdier and just use the pallet forks to move it around. Hooked everything up, splitter works as advertised. Only run tractor about 11 to 1200 rpm and splits fine, even fairly knotty oak. As far as cycle time I cut our wood around 12" so we can use it in fireplace, fire pit and BBQ grill I just don't raise it all the way.

With two shoulders that both need to be fixed this thing makes life much easier!
