did it get hot.??? watch out with heat on the cylinder mine when i first got it i could only run it for a short time and the heat from fluid circulating caused it to get so hot you had to shut it off and let it cool,, ... that is a dumb way to have the handle's i agree, seems to me for the extra money they get for these the lease they could do is take them out in the field and split some wood with them and with the acuwall time in too the machine find all the problems and fix them... thats typical engineers for you too busy sitting down behind desk's in meetings to have any acuwall experience ,,but a zip tie may work if you need to use it till your buddy welds on a shelf for the hydraulic valve... loved the video i wish i would of seen more when i bought mine/ like you said and said it best i would not have bought it...

+jason hullihen It has not gotten hot. I have finished splitting wood for this year. Hope to get a fix for the handle soon.
