The base plate, on which the logs st&, can be adjusted to three positions depending on log length. Position 1 deals with logs up to 52cm, position 2 up to 78cm & in position 3 logs as long as 104 centimetres can be split. This three-position system offers versatility but also is useful economically & logistically.

Safety is paramount with such a powerful tool so this model is fitted with two-handed operation. Both the user’s hands have to be on the control levers & therefore out of the way of the ram & e-wedge before the mechanism can be activated & used. For extra protection, e.g. from flying chips, the control levers are fitted with hand shields. For even more safety, the logs are held in place with specially designed clamps when log splitting is in progress.
