Product Description
The SideTool Mechanical Wood Splitter greatly increases efficiency in splitting wood without the manual lifting. Depending on the size and weight of your machine, you can split 30-42 inch rounds and 12-30 inch lengths. The heavier the machine, the easier it will be to split green wood, knotty wood, hardwoods, etc. – up to 16 pieces a minute.
Each splitter is made custom in the United States and uses professional grade and strength steel. The optimal machine is 3-8 metric tons, but even 4 ton machines easily split the toughest woods. We also have splitters for as large as 15 ton machines. You can stack the wood in a pile, bin, trailer, or inside your wood shed, instead of having to carry pieces around by hand.
The wood splitter attaches to the hydraulic or non-hydraulic thumb of the mini-excavator and uses your current coupler system. The attachement goes on and off in just a few minutes. Optimal size machines are in the 3-6 metric ton range, although we do have customers who operate the wood splitter with as small as a 1.5-ton machine or as large as a 7-ton machine. What makes this task even more efficient, is that you can use the wood splitter to lift the split pieces on to a pile or place them directly on your truck bed. This eliminates the need for additional labor to move the split pieces.
