Your Chain Saw Powers This New Log Splitter WOODLOT EQUIPMENT Wood Splitters 5-5-4 The photo of the chain-saw powered log splitter featured in our last issue (Vol. 5, No. 4) was built by LPI Sales, Inc., of Kissimmee, Fla., and not by LPI's competitor, as the story may have indicated. Harold Phelps, president of LPI, says his company holds the patent on the unique new type of splitter which gets double duty use from your chain saw.
"It eliminates the most expensive part on the splitter, at the same time making it light enough to easily pick up and carry in your car to wherever you're cutting wood. It has power to match larger units but with a much lower price," Phelps told FARM SHOW.
The splitter handles logs up to 20 in. long, splitting them on a special two stage splitting wedge. It develops as much as 12 1/2 tons pressure, depending on the chain saw used to power it. Most any chain saw, including mini saws, can be used, says Phelps.
To attach your saw to the splitter, just remove the chain and bar and hook up to the drive chain on the splitter, a process that takes 4 to 5 min. LPI sells the splitter for $498.
