Wood-Splitting Set Up
This is the easiest-to-use wood-splitting set up I've ever used. It mounts on a tractor 3-pt. hitch so I can drive to the woods with two vertically-mounted splitters. One's big, powered by a 4-in. cylinder, and the other is smaller with a fast-acting 2 1/2 in. dia. cylinder. What's more, I mounted a hydraulic-powered c

Wood-Splitting Set Up WOODLOT EQUIPMENT Wood Splitters 18-5-35 This is the easiest-to-use wood-splitting set up I've ever used. It mounts on a tractor 3-pt. hitch so I can drive to the woods with two vertically-mounted splitters. One's big, powered by a 4-in. cylinder, and the other is smaller with a fast-acting 2 1/2 in. dia. cylinder. What's more, I mounted a hydraulic-powered cable winch fitted with a pair of log tongs on top of the big splitter mast so I can drag big chunks of wood onto the splitting table without any lifting.
The big splitter has a 4-way blade and a rotary turntable. It lets me cut up big chunks into smaller pieces that I can then cut up even smaller with the smaller splitter. Both splitters and the winch are powered by a ptodriven hydraulic pump. The splitters mount on I-beam masts. The splitting wedges are fitted to brackets that slide up and down one side of each beam.This set up lets me drive right up to the tree and cut the wood up into any size I want. I built everything in my shop. (Clyde E. Williams, Rt. 1, Box 199, Leakesville, Miss. 39451 ph 601989-2426)
