SAFETY FIRST

 

OH&S Features unique to Woods slashers
Change blades from above the machine: no risk to operators or maintenance crews of having to get under slasher to change the blades. Slasher does not need to be on stands
Quick Change Blade System removes labour and material to change blades: only light hand tools required to change blades. No oxy or grinding risk
Will not leave a windrow: superior material discharge management as material will be spread evenly across the back of the slasher limiting risk to plant and personnel
38mm blade pin: is 4x stronger than the standard 3/4” bolt on standard slasher. A 3/4” bolt is more likely to wear through and throw blades
Tip Speed is not excessive: Woods tip speed is efficient for design of slasher. Excessive tip speed is not tolerant to hitting objects increasing chances of breaking/throwing blades

 

EFFICIENCY

 

Operating and R&M Cost Efficiency
Full structural sub frame increases integrity of slasher making it more durable than other slashers and fitting for our Australian conditions
Machined gearbox hubs and tight tolerance steel shield will prevent any material affecting lower gearbox seal ensuring long life out of gearbox with no oil leaks
Driveline hanger will prevent dirt and water affecting shaft when removed from tractor
38mm blade pin is 4x stronger than standard blade bolt so is slower wearing than others
Quick change blade pin system allows operators to change blades within 5 minutes with light hand tools. Can be completed roadside reducing downtime of machines
Greaseable blade pins ensure long life of blades and pins lowering R&M costs
Stump jumper allows for less shocks to gearbox and blades can spin 360° upon impact compare to a beam where large shocks emitted to gearbox and blades can become wedged in beam
Large deck clearance allows for large volume of material to be cut without choking and uses less HP and fuel
