Oil volume (hydraulic system)
The total amount of oil that can fit into the hydraulic system of the respective log splitter (see "Type"). This parameter allows you to estimate how much oil is required for one refueling or refilling of the unit.
4-way splitter
The presence in the delivery set of the wood splitter of the
nozzle for splitting the workpiece into 4 parts. Such a nozzle usually has a set of blades in the form of a cross and, if necessary, is installed on the main working tool. "Cross" allows you to get log quarters in one pass (whereas without it it would take three — to split into halves and for each individual half). However for very thin or thick workpieces, such splitting is poorly suited — the centre of the log may not coincide with the centre of the nozzle.
Country of origin
Country of origin of the brand under which the log splitter is presented on the market. This country does not necessarily coincide with the place of actual production — on the contrary, it is not uncommon for individual parts to be produced in one state, assembled in another, and the brand generally comes from a third.
Also note that the country of origin itself does not affect the quality of the goods — a lot depends on the specific brand and even specific models. So it makes sense to pay attention to this information mainly in those cases when you fundamentally want (or do not want) to support a manufacturer from a certain country. Among the countries producing wood splitters are:
Austria,
Belarus,
Germany,
Denmark,
China,
Poland,
Russia,
USA,
Slovenia,
Ukraine,
Czech Republic,
Japan.
