The Halverson HWP-135 is built to get through rounds quickly. Load a round into the trough, and the HWP-135 splits and ejects it in a single pass with no repositioning or extra steps. It attaches to your skid steer, tractor, excavator or front loader and runs with one or two operators. It comes standard with a manual control valve, giving you control over the final product. Lock out the manual control valve and use the HWP-135 Lightning as a two-operator process for faster splitting.
Toss the round into its trough, then split and eject onto the pile or into the container of your choice.
