Wheel-drive assist on a log trailer is a hydraulic motor at the trailer axle that turns the trailer's own wheels. It does not replace the tow vehicle - it adds traction at the trailer end, so a loaded trailer can pull itself out of a rut, cross soft ground, and be spotted on a landing without the…

A log trailer with crane uses a hydraulic grapple that rotates 360° continuously, so the operator can turn a log to the angle the deck needs without unhooking. Stability comes from the chassis, not the crane: two hydraulic telescopic legs carry the load into the ground before the boom lifts.A crane…

A board edger with dual laser guide lines projects two red lines onto the infeed table, one for each saw blade. The operator aligns the wany edge to the lines before the board reaches the blades, so the trim allowance is set from what the board actually contains instead of being guessed at the…

A board edger trims both long edges of a sawn slab in a single pass, so the board leaves with two parallel, square faces at the width you asked for. Without that step, the bark-covered edges stay on the board, the piece has no true width, and the value it could have carried as lumber drops to…

Short answer: the wedge decides how many pieces one round becomes in a single pass. A 4-way wedge turns a round into four splits; a 6-way wedge turns it into six. The right choice is the one that produces the split size your buyers already ask for, at the log diameter you actually get.What the…

A firewood processor runs its Stihl bar and chain harder than a handheld saw: same cutter, but the saw head is fed by a hydraulic ram, all day, in dust and grit. The schedule that keeps it cutting straight is short — check tension and oil every tank, file every 10 to 15 hours of cutting,…

Firewood Processor vs Chainsaw and Splitter: The Throughput MathShort answer: a firewood processor wins on throughput because it removes handling, not because it cuts faster. A chainsaw cuts one round in seconds; the cost sits in bending, lifting, re-stacking and carrying each piece to a splitter.…

Short answerThe two mills sit in the same class but are specified differently. The Woodland Mills HM130MAX is published at a 30 in (76 cm) log diameter with a 30 in maximum cut width and a 14 HP engine. JERRY portable sawmills are built around log capacity up to 800 mm, with a choice of gasoline,…

Short answerHydraulic oil overheats when the heat going into the circuit exceeds what the reservoir and cooler can reject. An auxiliary tank adds surface area and oil volume, which lowers the steady-state temperature and gives air bubbles time to separate before the oil reaches the pump. On a…

Short answer: Where a wedge log splitter carries a CE mark and is fitted with a two-hand control device, EN 609-1 requires that device to be the only designated control that runs the splitting stroke. Both hands must initiate the stroke, and releasing either hand stops it. The machine does not keep…

Short answerMatch the splitter to the round you actually handle, not to the biggest log on the property. On our range: 8T electric for clean rounds up to about 40 cm, 15T horizontal/vertical for mixed firewood up to roughly 50 cm, 25T for heavy rounds you cannot lift, and 50T for large hardwood…

A log splitter with a 90° rotating beam lets one machine work in two positions: vertical, with the round sitting on the ground so nobody has to lift it, and horizontal, with the log on the beam for a faster, repeatable cycle. Choose vertical for heavy rounds you cannot lift by hand, and horizontal…
