This 20 Ton Horizontal attachment for your front end loader gives you the ability to turn your skid steer into a firewood producing machine. Just hook up to the outputs on your machine and you are ready to split wood.
Operating pressure of this splitter is only 2500 PSI so you can run your loader in idle and receive the maximum output of this wood splitter.
-
4 Way Wedge - Split logs into 4 pieces. 4 way wedge just slips over existing single wedge. (Can slide on and off quickly, choose 4 way wedge option to see picture) 4 way wedge will reduce opening size by 2".
-
30" Opening - Increase your opening size by 6" to a 4" x 30" cylinder to split longer pieces of wood.
