The Baumalight RSS780 Log Splitter turns a compatible skid steer into a practical tool for breaking down logs and bulky woody material. Its hydraulically powered planetary drive delivers rotational force to a 14-inch-long, 8-inch-diameter splitting cone, allowing the operator to approach material horizontally or vertically as the work area permits. This package includes the RSS780 drive and the complete D003935 splitting cone assembly, so the listed price covers both essential components.

Two helical spirals guide the cone into the wood, starting at a hardened, replaceable entry tip. Rather than relying on a conventional cylinder and wedge, the rotating cone opens the log as it advances. The 8-bolt flange connection securely couples the cone to the drive, while a protective flange helps shield the main shaft seal from debris. An integrated pressure gauge helps the operator monitor workload, and a bent-axis piston motor supplies power for demanding hydraulic applications.

Match the RSS780 to a carrier supplying a recommended 20–55 GPM at 2,500–4,500 PSI; the maximum limits are 65 GPM and 5,000 PSI. A case drain is required and is crucial to correct motor operation. The skid steer mounting plate and included hydraulic hoses simplify attachment setup, while carrier connections and hydraulic compatibility must be verified before use. No separate 12-volt electrical supply is required.

Built for farms, contractors, and property-maintenance crews, the RSS780 helps reduce large pieces of wood before further handling or processing. The skid steer mounting arrangement keeps the splitter readily accessible for controlled positioning from the cab, subject to the carrier's operating limits and operator's manual. Compatible optional tools can extend the drive's usefulness, but are purchased separately. Splitting results depend on wood species, grain, moisture, and carrier performance; match the carrier to the required mounting and hydraulic specifications.
