Kindling Cracker Firewood Kindling Splitter

Product Information

As soon as you hold this wood splitter in your hands, you can feel its quality. This is a very sleek-looking, single-piece item that has been made entirely from cast iron. It features a round cast iron frame with a cast iron wedge in the middle – this is where the blade is. One of the top choices on our comparison table for manual log splitters, the AGMA Swedish log splitter, is an efficient, effective, and safe solution for splitting logs. Easy to set up and use, you can easily transform large logs into smaller kindling without having to pay the cost of larger electric hydraulic machines. I’ll admit it, I’m not the best at explaining how things work so I’m adding a video to this section so you can get a better understanding. Anyway, these manual splitters are great for several reasons. One, you don’t have to swing a sharp edge so it’s relatively safe. Two, it doesn’t require gas or electric so you can use it wherever, whenever. And three, there are very few moving parts so the chances of having a slide-hammer log splitter break on you are slim. A. Absolutely. Your hands don’t go near the blade while you’re splitting, so there’s no danger of cutting yourself. You do need to hit the top of the log with a hammer or mallet, so just make sure to keep your fingers out of the way.

a. No tractors or machinery to be left running. Vendors and buyers must at all times maintain supervision of machinery and vehicles when running.

They utilize hydraulics but you’re the original source of power. How they work is usually by two handles which extend upward from the cutting end. Simply place a log on the splitter, between the wedge and hydraulic extension arm. Pull the handles one at a time to push the arm towards the log. With enough time, the arm will extend far enough to split the log on the wedge. Electric Firstly the setup is about literally a few minutes. You’ll need to sort yourself out a solid log base and attach the log splitter. Don’t worry, normally log splitters are extremely heavy.

Key considerations

There are a few very viable manual log splitting methods now, this market has advanced in terms of technology and availability considerably in the last few years, and since I updated this article, there’s a new top manual log splitter in town! You have your obvious pedal operated and hand pump log splitters. However there’s now two other cool methods though not designed for the biggest logs: I wouldn’t try splitting more than a ten inch diameter either. I’d like to see the bar push a bit closer to the axe head. This would definitely help break down more stubborn knotty logs. Though with those constraints I will say it’ll handle just short of half a metre so if you cut or are supplied with long-ish logs with medium diameter then this is just the kit. All of those claims about not much force needed to use this wood splitter? Completely true. Compared to the others that I tested, particularly the manual ones designed for kindling, this one required the least amount of effort. The clever way in which the wedge is shaped enables a force-free process.

A. A basic cast iron model will last for years with very little attention. You can clean it with a stiff brush and warm soapy water and remove stubborn deposits with mineral spirits. An occasional wipe with a light oil will help prevent rust, and if you like the decorative appearance, you might want to give it a coat of paint every couple of years. c. to resell the lot (by auction or private treaty) in which case the defaulting buyer shall be responsible for any resulting deficiency in the total amount due (after crediting any The opening at the top of the cast iron frame measures 6.5 inches, which should be enough for the average log, while the whole unit stands at 12 inches tall. It’s relatively compact and, unlike many of the other wood splitters out there, is quite quaint and charming to look at. It’s not something that you’ll have to hide away after each use – it’s almost a decorative item in itself. Using this wood splitter is simple. You place your wood through the ring at the top, and then hold it steady while you tap it a couple of times with something weighty. This embeds it into the wedge. Then, hit it with a bit more strength a few times to push it down the wedge, and, as it moves down, it will split into smaller pieces of kindling. Powered by electricity to help you cut through logs at speed, the Forest Master FM10 is a convenient and powerful log splitter, perfect for splitting wood for your wood burner. If you’re looking for a machine that splits logs for wood-burning stoves in seconds, this could be the product for you. It even comes with the hydraulic fluid pre-filled, unlike most log splitters.You simply lift the weight and sling it down. With both hands firmly on the weight. Personally I would wear gloves in case you slip or run your hand into the base as you throw the weight with an over follow through. Here’s a look at that with credit to Forest Master as this is a snap from their video that simplifies the process: If you’re looking for a heavy duty log splitter then in my opinion the new standard is pedal operated. For a start your legs are stronger but aside from that they are much easier to use standing up right. Sorry about their sales video (I’d turn the volume off) – I’ve started it the right place though. You can see just how easy that one is to use. The DUO10T Log Splitter is even easier.
