Like many others I spent a few days looking at different splitters and watching Youtube before I made a purchase. I already own a 22 ton gas splitter and probably burn 2-3 cords of wood per year. I burn hickory and oak mostly but also the occasional black walnut and pecan. I did NOT buy this to replace my gas splitter but a supplemental piece to see how it would work.
I split one truckload of pin oak yesterday afternoon and today. This was a HUGE limb, 3 truckloads out of one limb, so you can imagine how big the tree is. It ranged from almost 24" across down to the smaller limbs. The limb fell in April, in Alabama, and was cut up and left on the ground in early November so it is what I would call "semi-seasoned". Most of the bark stayed on when splitting and there was very little rot. Lengths ranged from 12" up to 24" and I had several pieces that were 20" which is about the maximum size.
I unpacked the box and read the instructions, for what that was worth, and had it running in about 5 minutes. I sat the splitter on the tailgate of the truck and used a 25 foot heavy extension cord under my shop awning. As you can imagine, the splitter had trouble with very knotty pieces but no more than expected. It bogged down several times because of knots but every piece that caused it problems would have been difficult to split with a maul. I split a lot with a maul for the exercise so I know the limitations. Straight pieces without knots that were less than 12-14" in diameter split extremely easily, as they would with a maul, and this was my main objective. I cut as much as I could into very small kindling which is difficult to do with a maul. It took me about 3 hours to split the truckload and that was with all the experimenting I was doing. Large logs needed to be split around the edges, again like a maul, but the splitter worked just fine even with the 20" diameter pieces.
The only real negative I can say after two days is that the Ram is too small. Pieces that are not cut straight can tend to pop off the rail which can be dangerous if you aren't ready for it. I easily solved this by using a piece of 4x4 but may try to rig up something permanent. The ram could be 2" taller and it would be much safer.
I wanted this to be able to split kindling and as a backup for when the gas engine decides not to start. I will try to use this with a power inverter in the next month so that I can take it back into the woods and run it with my truck running. I can easily pick it up and move it around but it does weigh a little over 100 pounds so many people may need help lifting it. For just rolling it along on concrete (the wheels are very close together) I imagine most people could handle it easily.
I tried using 50’ extension cord, but the amperage draw through the long cord was too much to run the motor. Ended up bringing logs into barn with splitter plugged into outlet without an extension cord. Unit never skipped a beat.
Ash is hard and splits easily, pay attention to safety area listed in manual. If I stood next to the unit sides, I would have been hit by the Ash when it flew off the splitter.
I added a longer arm to the detent valve so I could stand up and activate the ram. The handle it comes with is not comfortable to use as designed.
I’d definitely recommend for someone looking for a unit they may only need intermittently. Not for a regular use application. The occasional fallen tree is all I’d recommend.
