Quicke Silosplit

[IOW91]

Good afternoon, I'm considering getting a Quicke Silosplit. I was Wondering if anyone has one/has used one.

Are they any good?

What sort of ball park they are to buy? (new)

They look a good simple bit of kit that would suit our feeding system here.

thanks for any help you may have.

We have a mchale bale splitter, similar to the above but much more versatile as you spike the bale aswell as split it

Never tried, ours is on the front of a loadall so has plenty of oil flow and aslong as the blade is kept sharp cant see why it wouldnt

I will try and remember, best i can try is haylage though. Out of interest, why are you wanting to cut it that way?

Would think the quickie one will probably just lift the wheels off the ground if the bale has been made with a half decent baler. We have a mchale. Will split anything but have to keep a good edge on the blade. Good tool. Our silage is very dry and bales with 5/6 knives in and once split in half it’s very easy to fork to the barrier.

Would think thats the easy way to cut if bales has been chopped as itl just slice down a knife life

That McHale one looks a good bit of kit. Thanks all for the information. I'll get some prices ready for next winter.
