Description

The Champion Power Equipment PRO 201091 40-Ton Horizontal/Vertical Full Beam Professional Grade Log Splitter is specifically designed for the jobsite. It not only offers relief from the back-breaking work of splitting logs, but also reduces your work time so you can move on to other tasks. Depend on the reliable recoil start to start up the powerful Champion 338cc single-cylinder OHV engine, which features a cast-iron sleeve, a 1.45-gallon fuel tank, 1.2-quart oil capacity (recommended 10W-30) and a low-oil shutoff for safety. Never struggle to lift a large, heavy log onto your log splitter again. It only takes a few seconds and three simple steps to convert your log splitter from horizontal to vertical. This powerful machine handles logs up to 24 inches long, weighing up to 100 pounds. Forty tons of splitting capacity deliver the power you need. The hydraulic oil system has a 12-gallon oil capacity and operates at 24.7 gpm to power through tough logs.

The handy log catchers save your back by keeping your freshly-split wood within easy reach. The 2-stage gear pump reliably adjusts flow and pressure by delivering high flow/low pressure when there is no resistance and low flow/high pressure when cutting through a log to increase productivity. This professional grade log splitter features a 9 inch splitting wedge for large diameter logs, while the steel engine guard prevents logs from falling onto the engine. The heavy-duty front support leg with vertical adjustment and dual swivel wheels allows for easier leveling and moving around the work area. It’s easily towable up to 70 mph with its large self-locking hitch handle, extended tongue, 2-inch ball hitch coupler and DOT-approved 18-inch wheels and tires. Also, fits most ATV/UTV applications.

  • Compact but powerful
Style: 7-Ton
Based on the reviews, I decided to take a chance and buy the Champion 7 ton wood splitter. The delivery was a little delayed but it was delivered for free. This is my first owned wood splitter. I have used others in the past and in comparison this is a compact splitter. It came boxed up in several parts as you can see by the photo. The instructions are not precise but all bolts were in their own packaging and only fit in predrilled holes. I managed to assemble the splitter with myself and my helper Laci (shown in picture). :) in about 1.5 hours. Added gas, oil and hydraulic fluid. Slid the choke over and gave it 2 pulls and it fired right up. I started with maybe a 12" round log and I got no where :( . So I looked and read more and rechecked the hydraulic fluid and it was not registering on the dip stick. I added more fluid. It held almost 2 gallons of hydraulic fluid. On my second attempt the very first pull it fired right up. I went from 6 inch oak to about 18 inch in diameter and it sliced right through them all. I even put some knotted pieces on there and it busted right through. The only drawbacks I have would be no towing capability and like one other reviewer noted, the ram doesn't go far enough to split all the way through the piece of wood. That's another reason to read the reviews. I learned from his review to stick a small 2x4 block behind the wood so it would split all the way through. These are not big issues for me. I am not splitting enough wood that I need to tow it to the site. It is rather compact so it probably wouldn't tow that well behind a truck. But on the other hand it can easily be put in the back of a truck or trailer. I started and stopped it several times and it started on the first pull every time. The next thing I know I looked around and wow, I had a good stack of wood in about 30 minutes. Over all, I am satisfied with the Champion 7 ton wood splitter. If you are just splitting a few cords this is the machine to get it done. 2 years later , still loving the champion. Working great . No issues with it. I have slit some 16 in. Logs I know weighing over 80 pounds because I weighed them. It has my recommendation 3 years later, still running like a champ. Starts on the first pull. I cut about 2 cords a year. I have put some huge logs on this splitter. The trick to the large logs is to chip away at them until you get them split . But if you just splitting for your home 2 ft. In diameter should be a breeze. ... show more

  • It's a beast
Style: 40-Ton
I was using a 27 ton splitter before. This 40 ton splitter cut through everything like butter, even green oregon white oak. Keep in mind that there is some oil in the engine and some hydraulic fluid in the hydraulic tank (probably for testing at factory) so you will need to add a lot to both, but less than full capacity. I added exactly 1 qt of oil to the engine oil and it was perfect amount. I also only needed to add 10 gallons of hydraulic fluid before it reached the fill window for the first time. Then another gallon and a half or so once I ran it for a bit and purged the air out of the system. Make sure you don't overfill and the unit is on level ground (I attached a cheap bubble level to the frame using double-sided extreme mounting tape)--else hydro fluid will start spitting out of the little hole on the cap screw. Don't ask me how I know this. :) The fill window on the hydro tank can get a bubble in it which makes it seem like it isn't quite full. I bought a small transmission dip stick and put a small mark on it where the hydro fluid is 1.5-2" from the top of the tank and now use that instead of relying on the fill window. I store it in the attached tube meant for the owner's manual. Very glad I bought this one, esp since it is highway rated unlike most others. One other tip--you will need an "S" style wrench (either 16mm or 17mm, depending on whether the bolt is up or the nut is up) to get the bolt/nut tightened on the two engine mounting bolts closest to the hydraulic tank. They don't leave enough room between the engine and hydro tank to use a regular box wrench or socket. ... show more

Style: 7-Ton
This is going to be a bit of a mixed review,,at least for now. First there is many things I do like about this machine, and a few design flaws I don't. Firstly after only 2 1/2 hrs of splitting I noticed the rails on the tank/beam galling badly . Upon further inspection I found the bracket/shoe on the end of the ram lifts right off the rails , the "Lips " barley even wrap around the rails enough to keep it from coming off ,, undoubtedly that will bend the ram if not addressed. Second, the ram stops about 2 " from the wedge causing incomplete splitting on stringy type woods or wet wood, I'm splitting dry ash and green maple right now. Adding a small block of wood takes care of that though pushing it all the way through. Thirdly, the wedge has flat sides with no flare in back and it won't quite spread the wood enough to get a complete split ,,some angled "wings" welded on the back should allow the wood to spread further allowing for better performance and a modification I will make later-on as it will effect the warranty otherwise . Fourth, and a very small issue, the screw for the vent on the hydraulic tank is not captured to keep it from falling off during operation, I've nearly lost it in the sawdust 2-3 times in the first 2 1/2 hours of use,,,remove it completely and stick it in your pocket or it will definitely get lost in short order or sometimes it vibrates closed. Myself, I'll be replacing mine with with a much better captured vent fitting ! Now on the positive side,,, There's lots and lots of power for a compact unit with it only struggling some on a couple bigger real knotty pieces. Runs and starts great. Overall quality looks really good other than my ram bracket appearing to be out of spec and to wide to stay on the rails. Very easy to store and maneuver around but it will be much better when I put a tow hitch on it for my garden tractor to pull it down to the South 40. I contacted customer service about the issue with the ram bracket and No Problem getting a new bracket and as a matter of fact I found Mike @ customer service outstanding to work with and quite helpful so unless there's some snafu getting the part I'm quite happy with the customer service from Champion. So that's the good and the bad, now I've got about 5- 6 hours of total use on this machine. Honestly other than the small annoying issues I mentioned it's a pretty darn good unit over-all IMHO. We'll see if the new ram bracket takes care of the only major problem I have with this product. 9/24/2019 Review Update,,, After contacting Champion and speaking with Mike all my issues were addressed and the replacement for the out of spec part is in route and will arrive in 3-4 days. I noticed the cylinder did in fact have a bend or got bent the third time the push bracket came off the rails . So either the bracket or cylinder was the issue to start with, either way Champion is sending both to get me back up and running in a timely fashion. As a master level mechanic in the marine and automotive field for >45 years I found Champions warrentee department and staff OUTSTANDING to work with !!! I only wish as many companies I've worked with over the years did as good a job handling my warrentee issues as Champion has. Top Notch Service ! Owning 2 pieces of Champion power equipment, a generator I've had for a couple years with 0 issues and the great service I've received on my splitter issue,,,I'm now a Champion "fan Boy" and can't say enough good things about them. From my experiences I can definitely recommend there products and this is where I'll turn for future power equipment purchases ! IMHO you can buy with confidence from Champion and I don't think you'll be disappointed at all. Once I get this splitter issue resolved I expect just as good things from it as well, just like my generator. ... show more
