Fire Wood Processor
I suspect the extra HP goes into fast cycle times.

Probably right Al. Im slowing down so I guess the processor should match me.

So basically, the saw is driven by a hydraulic motor with some increase of RPMs via jack shafts & pulley & belts. Chin

No hydraulics will be used or harmed in the driving of the saw. It will be belt driven through an electric clutch to engage it.

Thought you said you needed to build a bender to make the hydraulic lines, no?

Steve, I think the saw chain is being powered directly from the Wisconsin engine, via belts with an electric clutch in between. Everything else runs off of the hydraulics. If not, I give up too.....  Big Grin

Willie has it right, the saw is belt driven , all the other functions are hydraulic.

The sprocket for the chain saw finally arrived, glad I didn't have a piece of equipment laid up waiting 9 weeks for parts.
Drilled and threaded the bolt pattern for the sprocket, a bit of creative clamping. Not well stocked with metric taps and dies, was rather amazed how well a Canadian Tire brand tap cut 4140.

Then had to cut a keyway indexed to the bolt pattern.

The keyway cut and it all fits, once in a while I get lucky. Even in the shop.
