Key Features
High-Powered Engine
Lifan 15HP 420cc four-stroke engine – quiet, fuel-efficient, and proven for long-term durability.
Massive 45 Ton Splitting Force
Powered by a huge 6" OD hydraulic cylinder and 16GPM 2-stage 3000psi hydraulic pump, delivering exceptional force for even the toughest hardwoods and knotty rounds.
Dual Splitting Positions
Operates in both horizontal and vertical positions, making it easy to split everything from manageable rounds to large, heavy logs that are difficult to lift.
Fast Splitting Cycle
Approximately 15-second cycle time provides an excellent balance between maximum force and productivity.
Full-Length Beam Design
Unlike many half-beam competitors, the full-length beam provides superior ram support, increased strength, and improved weight distribution for longer service life.
Heavy-Duty Hydraulic System
Auto-return control valve with detent function
Lipped spool seals (not cheap O-rings)
High-quality hydraulic hoses and fittings
Curved hose fittings to reduce stress and minimise leaks
Reliable, smooth hydraulic performance
NZ Firebox Optimised
Splits logs up to 500mm long – ideal for most New Zealand wood burners and fireplaces, reducing the need for additional cutting.
Stable, Safe & Practical
Low-mounted engine and pump assembly for optimal oil pickup and smooth operation
Rear folding support leg for maximum stability during use
Front folding support leg and side work table for convenience
Easy and safe single-hand operation
Large wedge and robust frame designed for demanding workloads
