It’s coming down

Felling trees on a customer’s property requires two important pieces of equipment: chainsaws and log splitters.

Ariens 34-ton log splitter

The pitch: Centrally located controls and an open operating zone allow for operation from either side of the machine.

  • It features a 7 hp / 211 cc Subaru engine.
  • The open design reduces the amount of bending, reaching and walking required by the operator, resulting in less operator fatigue and more energy for splitting.
  • It has a log capacity of 25 inches.
