Ceccato BULL SPLT20 20 Tons Tractor-mounted Vertical Log Splitter - 1100 mm Piston Stroke

The Ceccato Olindo Bull SPLT20 log splitter is a vertical log splitter intended for intensive uses. It comes with a big wedge, which slides on a thick steel guide which prevents the cylinder from wear even in case of intensive use.

The Bull SPLT20 is operated by means a cardan shaft connecting it directly to the tractor PTO.

The 20 tons splitting force allows splitting knotty logs up to 114 cm in height by means of the additional controls on the upper part of the machine in order to split large-sized logs.

Furthermore, it is equipped with a large capacity pump on the multiplier gearbox for using it with a cardan shaft, which guarantees a great splitting force and a high working speed.

It is provided with a safety arch and adjustable end-of-stroke automatic control system. The piston can be closed for storage

This SPLT20 heavy-duty log splitter can operate very quickly and it is equipped with special safety devices to protect the Operator while working.

Ceccato Bull log splitter is entirely made in Italy.

This machine belongs to the Ceccato Olindo series of tractor-mounted Bull log splitters equipped with 1100 mm piston stroke: SPLT20 SPLT16 SPLT13.11

WEDGE: cutting wedge with 3° tilt towards the frame.

SUPPORT PLATFORM: the thickness of the supporting plate is 50 mm, thus improving the stability of the machine. The support platform reaches 100 mm beyond the edge of the cutting wedge.

PISTON STROKE: the cutting wedge at the end of the stroke features a residual distance of 100 mm from the cutting plate.

UPPER CONTROL LEVERS: the levers have been shortened as to comply with the Directive.

LOWER CONTROL ARM LEVERS: shortened levers on the log supporting arms. shortened levers on the log supporting arms. Thus, their positioning in compliance with the height measures stated in the Directive. The indicative shape has been specifically selected to prevent the possible fall of the log towards the Operator.

HYDRAULIC HOSES: we have increased the hose diameter for ensuring a lower oil temperature. Cable protection and shielding with Ceccato Olindo screen-printed canvas sheathing with steel studs. In case of damage or burst of the hose, this holds the oil and vaporises it without any risk of injury.

LOG LIFTING SYSTEM: installation of a log lifting device synchronised with the movement of the cutting wedge

In addition to the above-mentioned regulations, we have replaced the standard distributor with a high-pressure, high-quality distributor. It is equipped with high-flow hydraulic hoses and prepared for a winch, which is not provided on standard equipment.

Each machine model features all the specifications required in accordance with the Directive. Thus, all the use and maintenance instructions are properly upgraded.

The Ceccato log splitter is in compliance with the DIN EN 609-1: 2017 Directive.

This log splitter is tractor-mounted and can be connected to the tractor via a cardan universal joint.

The log splitter operates by using the high-performance double hydraulic pump operation, which achieves 230 bar working pressure and can pump 49 L/min, supplying oil, drawn from the tank, to the hydraulic cylinder which acts as a pusher.

The frame of the machine structure itself acts as the hydraulic oil tank.

The log splitter can be connected to the tractor by means the three-point linkage on the sturdy machine frame.

Focus on the oil-bath hardened steel multiplier gearbox coated with cast aluminium.

The multiplier gearbox transfers torque from the tractor to the hydraulic pump by means of the cardan universal joint.

The hydraulic circuit is provided with metal filter cartridge.

The 20 tons splitting force allows splitting knotty logs up to 114 cm in height by means of the additional controls on the upper part of the machine in order to split large-sized logs.

This is possible thanks to the very sturdy and large piston, which features a 125 mm outer diameter and a 70 mm internal diameter.

The 1100 mm piston slides on a steel guide in order to preserve the cylinder even under extra load. Moreover, it comes with a high-density ABS piston side guides with bronze plate and replaceable plate. Thanks to their bronze thickness, the guides preserve the main cutting plate on the log splitter main frame part.

Adjustable piston stroke: when splitting short logs, you can speed the operations as the piston stroke can be adjusted by means of a tightening screw.

You can disassemble and close the piston to limit the log splitter size for easy storage.

The log splitter is equipped with a speed cylinder drive circuit and double powering controls.

Focus on the upper controls and the lower controls.

The control levers for operating the machine must necessarily be operated by the Operator using both hands, for avoiding any kind of injury.

When light pressure is applied, the log splitter makes the pushing cylinder move quickly until it comes into contact with the log.

By applying more pressure on the control handles, the piston considerably slows down its speed and increases the wedge splitting force of up to 20 tons.

Single or double speed can be selected by simply pressing down on the control handles with more or less pressure. Once the wedge will contact the log, the Operator will automatically know how much pressure to apply on the handles so that the wedge concentrates all the power of the log splitter for splitting the log.

This log splitter is made with thick enamelled steel sections that compose the highly sturdy boxed frame. Most log splitters on market mount an “H” shaped frame but this Ceccato log splitter mounts a boxed frame, which is reinforced with front plate where the wedge slides. This plate is made of high-strength tempered steel, which is harder than the steel used for the frame. This means that the frame and the support platform are very sturdy and strong.

This log splitter comes with wheels to make transport easier and it is perfectly balanced. Even just one Operator can transport the machine even if it weights around 385 Kg.
