It is manufactured entirely from high-strength Hardox\u00ae steel and features premium pin bearings, ensuring an extended service life and exceptional resistance to mechanical wear. To withstand harsh environments, the entire structure undergoes a KTL (cathodic dip-priming) treatment and an anti-corrosive powder coating.&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-sheets-root=\"1\" style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-family: Poppins, Arial\"><b><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">Performance: <\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">Compact Power. <\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">The L540 Ecoline offers a 540 mm gripper opening, allowing it to engage logs with a splitting force of up to 14 tons. Its hydraulic system is optimized for low flow rates (25\u201360 l\/min), facilitating seamless integration into a wide variety of base machines without compromising cycle speed. Thanks to its intelligent design, it requires very little force from the carrier machine to divide even the most resilient timber.<\/span><br \/><b><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">Biomass Quality and Versatility:<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\"> The Multi-tasking Tool. <\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">Pre-splitting with the L540 enables a natural wood seasoning process, significantly increasing biomass quality and its final energy yield. Beyond its primary function, its robustness allows it to be used as a conventional loading gripper, enabling the operator to split, organize, and feed chippers without the need to switch attachments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">Fleet Compatibility<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-sheets-root=\"1\" style=\"font-size: 12px;font-family: Poppins, Arial\">Base machines: Mini excavators, forestry trailers, timber cranes, and farm loaders.

What warranty does the manufacturer offer? <\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">The Woodcracker L540 Ecoline comes with a manufacturer&#8217;s warranty of 1,500 hours or 1 year on parts (whichever comes first), securing your investment in the field.<\/span><br \/><b><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">2. Does it include technical documentation? <\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">Yes, the unit is delivered with the CE Certificate, a comprehensive user manual, and a spare parts book with all technical references to facilitate maintenance.<\/span><br \/><b><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">3. Can I use it to load logs in addition to splitting them? <\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">Absolutely. Thanks to its design, it functions perfectly as a loading gripper, allowing you to split and load timber in a single operation without changing tools.<\/span><br \/><b><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">4. How does using this splitter improve biomass? <\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">Pre-splitting exposes the interior of the log to the air, facilitating a much faster natural seasoning process. This reduces moisture content, prevents degradation, and significantly raises the energy value of the resulting wood chips.<\/span><br \/><b><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">5. Is it difficult to install on my mini excavator?<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\"> Not at all. The design is &#8220;Plug-and-play,&#8221; allowing for a quick and easy hydraulic and mechanical connection so you can start working immediately.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span data-sheets-root=\"1\" style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-family: Poppins, Arial\"><b>The Woodcracker L540 Ecoline is the most compact and versatile log splitter in the L-series, designed to process large-diameter timber with maximum agility on light carrier machines.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/><\/b>With a weight of only 195 kg and a splitting force of up to 14 tons, this Hardox\u00ae steel attachment allows you to split and load wood in a single operation, optimizing biomass production from the very first cut.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":87204,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_joinchat":[]},"product_brand":[582],"product_cat":[57],"product_tag":[],"translation_priority":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-4044","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_brand-westtech-en","7":"product_cat-machine","8":"pa_marca-westtech","9":"pa_tipo-wood-splitter","11":"first","12":"instock","13":"taxable","14":"shipping-taxable","15":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/4044","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/87204"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4044"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=4044"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=4044"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=4044"},{"taxonomy":"translation_priority","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/translation_priority?post=4044"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
