What can the extra hydraulic ports on my B6100E be used for? Kind of silly that it turns off the 3ph to use them, but that is also probably why most don't. I was thinking about all it would be good for is a really slow log splitter or some other stationary hydraulic device. Or maybe a dump bed trailer where the tractor just pulls it and the hydraulics can actuate the dump cylinder, but then again it will not pull much and most people just get a loader for that kind of stuff.

I have the same thing on my b6100, and i am in the same boat as you. I would like to run a log splitter of of mine, but i dont know how it would work, and dont you need a return line or being a log splitter is a single cylinder would it just retract back into the tank?

I don't know anything about your tractor, but a lot of ag equipment is draw bar, so you don't need the 3ph when you use it. My mower and balers are like that. Of course, I'd still like both. For example I have a PTO cement mixer I use with my L3010 and I expect to add a hydraulic angle control to the rear blade I use for snow removal.
