Beam Locks

These two locks, as their name suggests, are used to secure the beam in the horizontal or the vertical position. The vertical beam lock is located next to the oil filter. The horizontal beam lock is located on the beam support latch bracket.

Control Handle

The control handle has three positions; Forward, Neutral and Reverse. See the Operation section for instructions.

Wedge

The wedge is used to split the wood.

The log dislodger is designed to remove any partially split wood from the wedge. This may occur while splitting large diameter wood or freshly cut wood.

Log Tray

The log cradle is designed to catch the log after it is split.

Tongue

The tongue is used to attach to a towing vehicle for transportation.

End Plate

The end plate holds the log in place while the wedge splits the log.
