The Forest Master Fast Fire Log Splitter is a kinetic log splitter that produces either 6 or
8 tons of splitting power, capable of splitting both seasoned and unseasoned wood. This
is an electric log splitter, but it can also be fitted with either a Forest Master FM139 or a
Honda GX35 petrol engine, which will eliminate the need for wires and cables.
The the electric motor or petrol engine powers the kinetic device that ensures an efficient
and fast split of wood, including hard knotty wood. Using the latest kinetic technology,
the Forest Master log splitter uses the motor to power a single flywheel system that stores
energy and then releases it in one quick burst, which maximises efficiency of splitting the
log. This dramatically reduces the cycle time of the splitter to 3 seconds, allowing you to
split more wood in less time.
The kinetic log splitter is capable of splitting logs up to 520mm in length and 400mm in
width. Unlike standard log splitters, this machine has an automatic belt tension system so
you don’t need to tension the belts. In order to comply with the latest safety regulations,
this splitter is operated by both hands simultaneously, one hand to press the push button
and the other to operate the control handle. This ensures that your hands are clear of all
moving parts during the splitting operation. It is also fitted with a work bench and safety
guard.
This log splitter comes with a stand that has wheels at the rear and locking castors at the
front, so it can be moved easily around a job site or workshop.
CE APPROVAL Parts
In order to comply with CE Approval regulations within the UK and European Union, the
log splitter is supplied with a work bench and safety guard. Outside of these areas the
user can choose not to fit the safety guard to the work bench.
