If the last piece was too tough to split and he continued to apply power to it for too long, some seals may have been damaged. Also, was the wing nut loose before it was used last? DanCorcoran Minister of Fire. Jan 5, 2, Richmond, VA. Yes, the instructions say not to apply pressure for more than 5 seconds if the wood doesn't split.
Your friend may not have known this. Leaking seals can result. RLS New Member. Nov 12, 5 MD. The HF 7 ton I just got won't let me hold pressure on if the log doesn't split. The motor stops and I have to release and restart. Not sure if this is because I had a ft 14 guage cord the first time or if its a design to stop to prevent overload.
If designed that way its a nice feature to keep from breaking it. It was not a hassle at all. Only stalled on 3 logs. Reactions: Danno RLS said:. Click to expand Yeah it is some kind of overload protection. As soon as the ram hits and the log doesnt pop the overload kicks in.
Hopefully its due to the long ft cord of 14g on a 15 amp house circuit. I have not had a chance to run it on a 20a circuit with 10g cord yet. I use a foot, gauge cord on a 20 amp circuit, specifically to avoid overheating the motor. Seemed like a small investment to protect the splitter. I can use it to recharge my electric shaver, too.

With that model, does pushing the button energize the motor or do you have to move the lever AND push the button? Jags said:. Last edited: Sep 11, Yes the motor humms when I push the start button Simon. If possible, try my test about spinning the motor when it is humming. If it takes off, I would probably be looking at start caps. Keep us informed on how it goes.
If the motor just hums but does not spin, I had that problem a while back. Some debris was caught in the fan blades in the front of the motor. Take off the shroud with three screws and make sure the fan blade turns freely and is clear of debris.
Reactions: Jags. Sometimes its the simple things As you suggested I removed the fan housing and tried to spin the fan by hand!
