Superior Standards

No Woods slasher will leave a windrow

No windrow ensures efficient pasture management for sustainable production. You can count on Woods to consistently deliver a superior cut quality. Woods consistently outperform competitors in key cut quality category of evenness of cut, material distribution and cutting capacity.

The Industry’s most comprehensive warranty

Woods are proud to stand behind and reinforce their commitment to quality by offering the Woods Cut Above™ Warranty Program – the most comprehensive warranty plan in the industry.

American and Australian made with global materials

Woods slashers are proudly manufactured in both the United States of America and in Australia. The Woods engineering and product team rigorously test every sourced component to ensure it meets our high standards for safety and quality.

Exclusive Features

EZ-Change™ Blade System

There is no comparison to the EX-Change™ Blade System. Change blades in five “EZ” steps with only a ¾” wrench. Competitors require an impact gun or potentially an oxy to replace blades.

Change blades from above the slasher

Reach the blades and pins easily through a convenient large access window on the deck. This prevents the need to go under the unit for simple blade maintenance. Reduce OH&S risk and change blades within minutes.

Complete Subframe

Woods slashers are built on a complete subframe, meaning the frame is built and then the skin is welded in This ensures that the strength is where it matters and there is no excess steel or heavy metal adding to the weight of the machine.

GREAT FARMERS DESERVE GREAT DURABLE SAFE MACHINERY

Our top six exclusive features on a Woods slasher that differentiates itself from other slashers in the market:

  1. Exclusive ‘Quick Change’ blade pin system–change blades within minutes with light hand tools with no need to use an oxy! The Woods Equipment slasher blade pin is 38mm (1.5”)rather than the standard 19mm on other slashers.
  2. Woods are the only slashers with a greaseable blade pin–increases longevity of your blade and reduces repairs and maintenance costs of your machine.
  3. A hatch in the slasher deck allows the operator to change blades from above the machine–no need to increase OH & S risks and downtime by having to get under the slasher to change the blades. Blades can be changed in the paddock within a couple of minutes thanks to the ‘Quick Change’ blade pin system.
  4. They do not leave a windrow, distributing the product similar to the way a mulcher does thanks to the unique rounded back allowing your paddocks to mulch evenly for increased productivity and improved pasture management.
  5. The stump jumper disk protects the carrier unlike beams on other brands of slashers. This allows the operator to glide over objects in the paddock when slashing with ease with reduced risk of damage to slasher, and more importantly, to the tractor reducing the repair and maintenance cost of your machinery.
  6. Woods Equipment slashers and implements are manufactured in the USA from American steel–these are robust products that are built to last. The gearbox has a six-year warranty in Australia.

Safety First

The safest slashers on the market!

Woods Slashers are the safest slashers on the Australian market. A unique design, exclusive to the Woods slashers, of a large access window on top of the slasher deck allows the operator to change the blades from above the slasher without the need of having to get under the slasher to access the blades.

The Quick-Change Blade System, exclusive to Woods Slashers, allows for easy changing of blades from the top of the deck within a couple of minutes. The operator can efficiently change blades from on top of the slasher with light hand spanners. No risk involved.

I’ve reduced my slashing time in half, from 30 hours to 15 hours a week. Even when slashing in heavy material nothing is left behind, giving my orchard a mower finish and nicely discharging material under my trees. Woods are well built machines.
