16 Ton Tractor 3 Point Log Splitter (3PT16H)

Works like a boss!

Works great! The only issue I have is the product description didn’t say that the hydraulic hoses are built for a rear plugin and I have a mid-tractor plugin. Otherwise it works great.

Mixed review

I have been able to get the unit to work briefly as the 3039 JD tractor is plumbed partially correct, however, the two connections at the rear of the tractor are "active" only when a thumb button on the "joystick" is depressed. This hydraulic connection is electronically activated by that thumb button and must be held in order to send hydraulic fluid to the log splitter. John Deere is working on a "work around" in order to have those rear connections "live" full time. That said, I was very disappointed when I received the unit as it was painted an Oliver (obsolete tractor brand) forest green and not John Deere green. Not a "show stopper" but this should be addressed with the manufacturer. Looking forward to using it in the future!

Works great

So far I have split oak, birch and tamarack. Nothing has slowed it down.
