With the increased focus being placed on safety regulations,
hydraulic flitch pushers eliminate the need for personnel entering
the gap between the knife and the flitch as it is being loaded
and dogged. Hydraulic cylinders with over sized rods are
placed under the knife bed and actuated with a switch located
at the operator's control panel. Oil is supplied from the
existing hydraulic unit, or if you choose, from a stand alone
hydraulic unit just for the flitch pusher system.
