The Woods Dual Spindle Slasher Series ranges from an 8ft cut to a 12ft cut and suits tractors with a PTO HP range between 35hp and 160hp. Cutting capacities range from 38mm diameter material to 75mm diameter material. All sizes of dual spindle slashers come in a standard duty and a heavy duty series. All models are available with a side throw option. The offset series (DSO8.50/DSO10.50) have the following hydraulic variable offset:
8.50 = 530mm right, 125mm left
10.50 = 685mm right, 125mm left
All models come with tail wheels. The 30 and 40 series of Woods Dual Spindle Slashers have 100mm x 400mm laminated tail wheels, with a bushed axel that can be height adjusted. The 50 series have a 125mm x 400mm laminated tail wheel. All drawbar (DS models) slashers have a 25.5 x 8-14 foam filled 20ply ag tyre which are hydraulically height adjustable. The width of the wheels is also adjustable. The 50 series also feature a spring to absorb any load shock from the tail wheels.
Why a Woods Dual Spindle Slasher
Woods Dual Spindle Slashers have a comparable output to a flail mower or mulcher with the benefit of considerably reduced maintenance and running costs. There is a higher volume of work able to be completed with a smaller HP tractor as the cutting width is up to 50% more on a dual spindle compared to a single spindle.

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 |
| 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 |
