John Deere 4052R

Is that one of those ebay splitters to fit a phd power head?
I've been looking for one of those old cones to adapt to my phd to split bigger logs to ease handling.

 

Yes it fits phd....i didn' get it on eBay. The brand is atom splitter.

 

Boy that thing is nice. Especially since I often deal with big rounds, and I do have a 3-point PHD. But the price is tough to swallow, especially since I don't mind noodling the big stuff. Still worth considering though.

 

Hey Hammy, if you need something to travel cross border PM me..

 

Awesome. Thanks CBVT! I will let you know for sure. If I wasn’t going to a wedding on the west coast this June I would be heading to Well Seasoned s GTG. If he does it next year I might fill up your mailbox with some orders to bring home

 

Do you think it's big enough to bust a 8'+ say 20" dia. log in half?
Not having an extra circuit on my excavator I'd be using my SS & phd, again just to make it a more manageable size. I'd finish on the log splitter.

 

whats a SS?? super split? the phd is run off a tractor?
it will easily split that,but i can reverse the the flow and unscrew it......might be a little more akward with 3pt hitch but im sure it can be done...lots of good vids on it on atom website.
most of my tree customers own one either on a skidsteer or excavator,busting up large logs (BIG) to run thru the chipper....most customers run 18"-22" capacity chippers.
ill try to grab some pics of some of the huge crap these little things can split....cant wait to try it on some stumps...
SS skid steer......got it,duh.....ill have another beer please...

 

Skid steer

 

Have you seen Fecon's stump killer?
Fecon’s Stumpex attachment removes most stumps in just 90 seconds, makes debris cleanup a snap (VIDEO)

Equipment World is free

hey...you wanna buy that rock and dirt mag from me??? i only spilled a little food on it

 

Enough for a snack?
How much?

 

Custom made wheel spacers for the 4052R

 

Unfortunately I have to machine down 16 wheel bolts,the heads protrude from the spacer.
I got 2 done...lots o beer later

 

They look great. Better get more beer if you have 16 of the bolts to do

 

Let me guess, no room for tire chains?

 

Yes there is room,I had the rear chains on it already for test fit,its just the RH side has a guard over the inner fender protecting some of the valving... sort of a double wall type thing,I felt more comfortable moving the wheel out an inch,in case the chain came loose,I'm just overly cautious sometimes
