It arrives with the hydraulic oil already in it. Attach the wheels and the control lever with the included tools, open the bleed screw, and split. Setup takes under 5 minutes. An electric wood splitter this size covers the rounds most households actually burn: seasoned hardwood and softwood up to about 12 inches across and 22 inches long.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul class=\"rc-specs\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"rc-specs__value\"\u003e7 Ton\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rc-specs__label\"\u003eSplitting force\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"rc-specs__value\"\u003e4,060 PSI\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rc-specs__label\"\u003eHydraulic pressure\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"rc-specs__value\"\u003e22 in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rc-specs__label\"\u003eSplitting capacity\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"rc-specs__value\"\u003e93 lb\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rc-specs__label\"\u003eMachine weight\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003e5-minute setup.

You steady the log with one hand on the lever and fire the ram with your foot, standing upright. Over a full cord, that is hundreds of fewer bends. Same certified two-stage safety, far less fatigue. Foot-pedal control is still rare on an electric log splitter at this size, and it is the whole reason the Plus exists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eQuarter a round in one stroke\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBoth versions ship with a 4-way cross wedge that drops over the standard wedge with no tools.

That is the difference between cutting your rounds to fit the splitter and cutting them to fit your stove. Diameter capacity is 10 to 12 inches for typical firewood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt for one person to handle\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 93 pounds this is an electric wood splitter one person can move.
