Like my corkscrew splitter, it looks pretty scary to someone who hasn't seen one work. I'm hesitant to say it's dangerous without seeing it in action. I'm guessing it's actually pretty safe as long as not operated in one's sleep... OSHA's regulations aside.

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.

The wheel has the cutter. Then plate where the cutter goes through is cut out on the flat steel table. IHC engine LA or LB 1930- 1945's. Machine I think is a lot older. Put logs on the table to cut noches for log cabins

Don't forget that that wheel isn't turning all that fast...........Maybe 30 or 40 rpms by my guess without being able to measure.... but it is turning with some inertia, and a whole lot of force......
Probably no more dangerous than a lot of production line machinery of the first half of the century......
EJP..... respectfully begging to differ, but the wood that you would have used in a jackstove, parlour stove, potbelly stove, or kitchen stove all would have had to be split. Unless one had an endless supply of 3-4" trees. This thing should have done the trick rather well, all in all...... probably mustering the force of a man with a splitting maul, if not more.....
I'd rather lift a 12" long log onto a platform, than split it by hand.....you have to lift any log onto almost any splitter, come to think of it.......

My log splitter fits on the 3 point hitch of my Ford. When lowered, it's only the distance of the I-beam from the ground. Usually I create a ramp with stuff and just roll the log onto the splitter. Makes it much easier!

My splitter is on wheels about 15 inches aboue the ground. I lift those i can comfortably. Use a ramp for larger ones. For the much larger stuff I drive in a 1/2 inch carraige bolt each end and with a chain lift with the bucket on the 1050. Then i peel off pieces or put it into pieces I can handle. I bought a set of large tongs from Northern Equipment but haven't used them yet. I love making wood in the winter. There have been times I had to disconnect the splitter pump to get the engine started pull cord. Then when the engine is warm reconnect and start again. The 30 weight oil I use for hydraulic has thickened.
