Had put on in the fall with my Stabilo Specialists me this log splitter. At first I was really excited. Runs good and quiet and has everything split that has come on the table. After about 3 cubic meters of wood, however, showed the screw that secures the splitting wedge, the first signs of fatigue and was sluggish. From January to early March, we have about 10 cubic meters of wood (mainly beech and oak and a little ash and birch) gespallten. Everything in diameter of about 20 to 30 cm. After this mileage the hydraulic cylinder was leaking and is beyond repair, so a new one must be installed.
My conclusion, rather save even 2 to 3 years and buy a higher quality splitters
