What Earthquake Has To Say

-Noah Marach, project manager, Earthquake Lawn and Garden Division
Power and Convenience
The Earthquake 5-Ton Electric Log Splitter, rather than using cheaper aluminum parts, opts for precision gearing and copper windings. This provides extra strength, better conductivity, and better heat resistance to ensure that you get a constant splitting force from the 2 hp electric motor. With five tons of splitting power and a 5″ splitting wedge, the new log splitter can tackle logs up to 20″ long.
We mentioned that convenience was a benefit of the new log splitter. The stand positions the business end of the splitter at waist height so that you’re not bending over quite so much. Additionally, it features two side catch trays to hold the split logs.
Earthquake has also designed this log splitter for supreme versatility and portability. Its stand includes wheels and handles that not only make moving it a breeze, but also make it easy to store away in the shed, garage, or basement.
Final Thoughts
As yet, we’ve not been informed of the price attached to the Earthquake 5-Ton Log Splitter. But, we do know that it will come with a 5-Year warranty.
