Hi James I am experiencing the same issue with my log splitter, do you by chance have the .stl file for the seal?! Thank you for this demonstration I'm confident as mentioned mine is experiencing the same issue
Interesting. I have the same machine but I bought it secondhand so I didn't know how it performed when new. As mine is only rated at 2 tonnes I thought it was only capable of splitting thin logs. On mine there is a label for ISC GmbH so perhaps they can supply spare parts? I would like to change the oil but don't know what sort to use or how to refill it.
I have oil leaking into the electric box through the hole for the cable going to the capacitor. Is it possible to pinpoint the fault just from this information?
Very good James. Can you give me some tips? I have a leak from the part where it is glued togther (time 7.16). After using my splitter, it will, with in 1 month, leek about 3 - 5 ml and it continio to leek 1 - 2 ml a month. not using the splitter. Do you have any suggestions for me:-) Thank you:-)
Mine sometimes doesn't return and I have to push it by hand. When going forward it is faster than the repaired machine in the video but perhaps that was due to the adjustment he mentioned?
Bought one used for $100 had no oil in it. Put 3.5 quarts of atf in it works great. Not as powerful or fast as maul. Good tool for the weak though. Let the kid use it to make firewood while I tend to more important stuff
So if no replacement seals are available, I should look at different splitter that has parts available for it. That's why I do research on a product before I make the mistake of buying it.
I couldn’t find replacement seals, then I went to a cylinder rebuild shop. He matched up what I had and had exact replacements in my hand within 10 minutes.
Why did you use the blocks of wood? Wouldn't it be better for the ram to be fully returned with no tension on it for disassembly? Edit, sorry I see now. You needed the ram to be pulled away from the one end. Makes sense now.
The same unit is produced one or two companies and marketed under dozens of company names all over the world.
You're right on this. Kinda make you think to buy a gas log splitter
Missed out all the important stuff like what order to undo the nuts and bolts and withdrawing the piston rod.
"very dangerous spring inside" - 4:04 skips the entire take apart process
Man o man I’m glad this dude ain’t my neighborhood mechanic omg!!!
Я думаю, что это кольцо будет пропускать масло. Из-за чего прибор будет иметь меньшую силу.
I think this is the exact issue with my log splitter as well :) Need to try this out, and lucky I have a 3D printer as well :)
You said not to adjust the factory preset pressure relief valve, but you are adjusting it?
Said not to adjust it to make it stronger, his reasoning to do so was to make it weaker due to the type of gasket he made.

Thankyou. So.... what's the 3d print material that you make the gasket/seals out of please?
He said ABS. Though would probably be better with TPU.
Any idea how to get to the seal on the other end?
Hello. Do you have the stl file can you share with us?
Mine is leaking hydraulic fluid heavy. I may need that ring also.
Thank you..I have a bad pressure seal also and would you have the file for the 3d printer?
Very generous of you! Many thanks.
Пожалуйста напишите размер кольца порошня.который вы заменили. И из чего он сделан...
I think that is what with our log splitter too.
Great job sir
Need that seal too sir. Good work

Incomplete, disassembly,and assembly, your good
Hello. Mine goes forward ok but it’s slow to return. It sounds like there’s fluid being forced through something. Could this be my issue?
