The Hands-Free Skid-Steer-Mounted Log Splitter mounts on most makes of skid steers and excavators and is operated by the machine's on-board hydraulic controls. The splitter itself is basically a large, cone-shaped, rotating screw that burrows into wood until the wood splits apart. The device has a range of movements, including tilting up and down (like a pendulum), which allows the operator to approach the log or stump from any angle. The newer Hands-Free Skid-Steer-Mounted Log Splitter Plus has three additional attachments--cement mixer, power-take-off, and post-hole digger.
