Never struggle to lift a large, heavy log onto your log splitter again. It only takes a few seconds and three simple steps to convert your log splitter from horizontal to vertical. This powerful machine handles logs up to 24 inches long, weighing up to 100 pounds.

Thirty-eight tons of splitting capacity deliver the power you need. The hydraulic oil system has a 6.0-gallon oil capacity and operates at 14 gpm to power through tough logs.
