Thor logsplitter problems

[davetaz]

Any one had any problems with thor logsplitters

I have a farmer multi-use 13T road towable splitter, 10HP B&S engine, double pump. It has two operating speeds.

When I use the faster speed itmakes the engine stall sometimes, even when it's not splitting any logs.

The engine is running fine, could it be the spool valve?

Any advice appreciated

sounds like the spool needs adjusted down, or maybe a bit of dirt holding it open too much

The main dealer and importers for the Uk and Ireland are over here in Belfast. M Large and Company

 

Get straight on the phone to them tomorrow - they should now if anyone does. Their number is 028 9034 2838

 

I was on the phone earlier with them about another splitter - they're normally spot on for support.
