Out of stock, restock in around early October. Pre-order now to save $120!!Upgraded with heavier and stronger flywheel system, generate more power to split hardwood, stronger stand and bigger wheels for high maneuverability, this Forestwest 18Ton Log Splitter is a more advanced model also called Kinetic Log Splitter. It generates up to 18Ton splitting force powered by a 3HP 4-stroke petrol motor and is more efficient with only 2-3 seconds per split cycle, much faster than hydraulic ones. It requires little maintenance that only needs to keep it clean and lubricated.
This machine is up about waist high with a stand, so you don't need to bend over to do any splitting, and the front tray will catch all the split pieces ready for the next split. The recommended log size is 14” long and 14” round, while the max log size is 16” long and 16” round (this may vary for different types of wood). Perfect for domestic use.
Note for Petrol Engine: Adjust the speed of the engine to make sure the cycle time is around 2-3 seconds. It is recommended to try and split at a lower speed, and gradually increase the speed of the engine if necessary. Engine running too fast may cause extra wear to the gears inside.
Features:
For kinetic log splitters, the average cycle time is about 2s to 3s, much more efficient than other models.
This petrol log splitter is more flexible with the petrol motor - no need to find a power point for operation.
This 18Ton log splitter can split firewood up to 16” long and 16” in diameter, suitable for most cases.
This splitter is on a stand to avoid bending for operation, easy to use. Large wheels make it easy to drag around.
Perfect for residential use or small rural areas. If you are tired of the slow motion of hydraulic splitters, this could be the right choice for you.

Your input is very much appreciated. Share it with your friends so they can enjoy it too!
It's just what I expected....breezed through 5 16" face cords of beech maple and oak. NOT A SINGLE PROBLEM. Very happy thanks. I usually cut a tractor trailer load every year. About 42 face cords
Works well and splits wood faster and easier than you expect. The gear rack that engages to fire the ram that splits the wood takes a lot of load every time it is engaged. I expect if used for commercial applications, this gear rack would eventually need to be replaced, as it engages aggressively, however works very well for home use. Time will tell how durable the drive mechanism is.
I'm absolutely satisfied about this item, quick and easy work. I agree with other comment about '' feeling some kickback on the handle''. But a very good product to work around the house.
