ABSTRACT:
A wood splitter is provided particularly for splitting logs. The wood splitter is specifically designed for use with a power takeoff shaft and a three-point hitch of a tractor. The wood splitter includes a drive shaft comprising a hollow shaft and a rod-like strengthening member extending substantially therethrough. The rod-like member stops short of one end of the hollow shaft which is threaded and receives a threaded shank of a conical tip of the splitting cone. The other end of the rodlike member has a transverse bore which is aligned with diametrically opposite openings in the hollow shaft and through which a shear bolt extends to hold the rod-like member in a fixed longitudinal position relative to the hollow shaft. The wood splitter also has a main frame supported on two stabilizing bars extending from the frame to the ground. A supporting bar is slidably supported at the lower ends of the upright stabilizing bars and a bracing bar extends from the supporting bar in the same direction as the splitting cone.
