MOST IMPORTANT FEATURES

PLANETARY SPLITTING POWER

THE HYDRAULIC PLANETARY DRIVE TRANSFERS CARRIER POWER TO THE ROTATING CONE, PROVIDING A PRACTICAL WAY TO BREAK DOWN LOGS WITH CONTROLLED POSITIONING FROM A COMPATIBLE MACHINE.

COMPLETE CONE PACKAGE

THE LISTED PACKAGE INCLUDES THE RSX580 DRIVE AND COMPLETE D002507 CONE ASSEMBLY, WITH A 14-INCH LENGTH AND 8-INCH DIAMETER FOR PROGRESSIVE LOG SPLITTING.

REPLACEABLE HARDENED TIP

THE HARDENED ENTRY TIP STARTS THE CONE INTO THE WOOD AND CAN BE REPLACED AS IT WEARS, HELPING KEEP THE SPLITTING ASSEMBLY SERVICEABLE OVER REPEATED USE.

IMPACT SOFTENING MOUNTS

RUBBER MOUNTS SOFTEN IMPACTS AT THE HEX-DRIVE CONNECTION AND ARE DESIGNED TO YIELD UNDER EXCESSIVE LEVERAGE, HELPING PROTECT THE DRIVE DURING DEMANDING LOG-PROCESSING WORK.

BOLT-ON EXCAVATOR INTERFACE

THE BOLT-ON INTERFACE ACCEPTS A CARRIER-SPECIFIC EXCAVATOR ADAPTER FOR CONTROLLED POSITIONING. A CARRIER MATCHED EXCAVATOR MOUNT IS INCLUDED. HYDRAULIC HOSES ARE SOLD SEPARATELY AND MUST MATCH YOUR MACHINE.

Baumalight RSX580

The Baumalight RSX580 Log Splitter turns a compatible excavator 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 RSX580 drive and the complete D002507 splitting cone assembly, and a carrier-matched excavator mount, all included in the listed price.

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 2-inch hex connection securely couples the cone to the drive, while a protective flange helps shield the main shaft seal from debris. Rubber mounts soften impacts at the drive connection and are designed to yield under excessive leverage.

Match the RSX580 to a carrier supplying a recommended 20–45 GPM at 2,500–3,000 PSI; the maximum limits are 45 GPM and 3,500 PSI. A case drain is recommended below 3,000 PSI and required at 3,000 PSI and above. Baumalight specifies a maximum 10-ton excavator for splitter use, with a lower 8-ton limit when operating an optional planer. No separate 12-volt electrical supply is required.

Built for farms, contractors, and property-maintenance crews, the RSX580 helps reduce large pieces of wood before further handling or processing. The drive-and-cone package includes a carrier-matched bolt-on excavator mount. Hydraulic hoses are sold separately. 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.

Baumalight RSX580

• Complete Drive and Cone – The package includes the model-specific drive, complete splitting cone assembly, and a carrier-matched excavator mount.

• Progressive Cone Engagement – Two helical spirals advance the splitting cone into the log, with a hardened entry tip that can be replaced as wear develops.

• Hydraulic Planetary Power – The carrier's hydraulics power a planetary drive with a 2-inch hex connection, without requiring a separate 12-volt electrical supply.

• Flexible Log Approach – The attachment can engage wood horizontally or vertically, helping operators select a controlled approach for the material and work area.

• Impact Softening – Rubber mounts soften impacts at the hex drive and are designed to yield under excessive leverage, helping protect the drive connection.

• Carrier-Specific Mounting – The bolt-on interface uses the included carrier-matched excavator mount. Confirm fit, hoses, and the 10-ton maximum carrier limit before ordering.
