It is definitely an interesting piece of equipment. Having said that, their website is garbage. I have made a promise to myself to never purchase anything from a company that refuses to simply list a price. Not today, Satan.
Thanks for posting the video. This looks like a nice splitter but I refuse to do business with places that have a "request a quote" option on their site when they have standardized products, or even when you can customize it. Pretty easy to create a quote customizer (See Woodmizer). That just means they are embarrassed by their high price tag. It's the same concept as a used car salesman not posting a price on a car they have for sale.
VERY nice. need to down size main cylinder if you wanted to push fast. at the speed that big cylinder is moving you should have lots of pump volume. i un-bolt my splitter & attch to mine excavator. VERY nice that will keep a good team moving
Law here requires wood to be stacked to verify cordage. Ash is easy to cut and split, but isn't the higher BTU wood . It's low moisture content makes it burnable sooner with less curing time.
You know, watching these kind of videos or to me on the truck driver.Watch these vacuum landed better.Just so relaxing.Thank you for putting these kind of videos out awesome
It's kinda good --- kinda not. It's a little more complicated, but I think with time and experience you can get up to speed. The ram is kinda slow --- but it splits 2/4/6, etc., so there's that. Question: does it auto-stop at full extension and/or can it auto retract after it gets to full travel? That would be nice.
Do your self a favor, swap drawbar to the other end. You don’t have to unhook, and as the wood piles up, you just pull forward. Pick the splits up after all the splitting is done.
A guy i worked with was splitting firewood and drinking and got his hand caught between the wood and the wedge it messed his hand up bad. so, i told him next time not to put his hand between the wood and the wedge.
Prentice made splitters with the lift option, centering and multiple wedges 40 plus years ago. Nothing new…. Hitches always on the end opposite of the wedge. Normal wedge was a 13 inch knife and then you could slide a wide wedge over the top for easier splitting wood.
I went to the link in the description and their page simply says "request a quote"... I HATE when companies don't just publish the damn prices of their products right there on their website...
@@peterfitzpatrick7032 exactly. I don't have the time to call, email or get harassed for simpley wanted to know if this tool is in my budget or not. Plenty of manufacturers have their prices on their sites. I'll use them.
Park the tactor with a bucket or IBC at the back of the splitter, fill up as you go, save your back a little. Using a Finnish Palax Combi MII here, probably a less expensive machine, but not suited to larger diameter logs like you're splitting. Great throughput though, and has its own built-in shiftable conveyor.
