Petrol Log Splitter

[Dorset Treeman]

Has anyone used one of these 8 ton Titan log splitters?

I am looking for reviews before I consider parting any cash for one of these. I am a tree surgeon so dont do a massive amount of logs but the back is not what it used to be.

 

If anyone knows of a better alternative for similar money I would love to hear it.

 

Thanks

I think these were discussed recently, try doing a search

I started a thread on 7 ton electric splitters, may be of some use.Re: Be Kind....Rock 7 Ton Electric Log Splitter

I bought one nearly two years ago and had no problems with it, I am very impressed with it as it is only for personal use, I rang the company direct and asked what was the best they could do and they gave me free postage. Give them a ring and see.

Been reading all the threads on here about different log splitters. Now looking at the Lawnflite LS80P 10 ton petrol splitters.

Anyone got any feedback on these? I am keen to know the cutting and return speeds/times as these important details are not listed on the production specifications. I plan to contact the seller and ask but you always get a more accurate figure from somebody who already bought one rather than somebody who is trying to sell it!

Hi

 

This is a clip of the same machine under a different brand name in use. You can set the return height so you only need it to go up to the required height you need and not the full cycle.

Cracking little machine! Bought mine over two years ago from Jonesie and aint had a single problem (touchwood). Saved me many a back breaking hour.....

Fast safe affordable and sooooo slow

Can anyone talk timescales for cutting?

What one person calls slow may be acceptable to another etc etc
