Surprise! Let's take it in the Woods!

What happens here

After uncrating, the presenter inspects various components of the log splitter. He shows the Kohler Command PRO 14 HP engine, emphasizing the importance of using non-ethanol fuel and demonstrating how to check the fuel tank (which requires a transfer pump due to its placement). The unique Kohler Quad-Clean air intake system is demonstrated, showing how to switch between summer (outward-facing) and winter (engine-facing for pre-warming air) modes. The hydraulic tank with its built-in thermometer for monitoring fluid temperature is also pointed out. The splitting wedge is detachable and can be configured as a two-way or four-way splitter. The heavy-duty construction of the unit, including its USA-made components, is highlighted.

Goal: The key features and components of the LogOX Timber OX Summit log splitter are highlighted, including the engine, air filter, hydraulic tank, and splitting wedge.

oh o here it is the timber Ox Summit split return good stuff good stuff so guys this comes with a pump multi-use transfer pump and the reason it comes with a pump is because our fuel tank is kind of up under here so it's a little bit difficult to get to again that's why you get a transfer pump with this this protects the fuel tank and protects everything around it got an operator's manual right here so this has what's called the quad clean system right here you pop off these little tabs this is the air intake for this machine and that air intake for summertime right here would be out outward facing for winter time in real cold conditions it would be facing towards the exhaust right there which would pre-warm the engine just a little bit or pre-warm the air that comes into the engine just to make it run just a little bit more efficiently pretty cool stuff this is a Coler command 14 horsepower command Pro 14 horsepower we have the pull start right here and we also have a key start underneath here are all your hydraulic levers and everything uh this deck comes up and I'll show you that here in just a minute back here you have a gigantic tank for your hydraulic fluid and this has a thermometer built in so you know if your hydraulic fluid gets too hot you need to give your machine a little bit of a break I'm not sure exactly what the temperature rating is there but you can keep an eye on it and that way you don't burn up your equipment if you're running this thing for 5 hours straight or something like that back and forth back and forth I'm not sure what the temperature degrees is I'll post it down there so this is again is our hydraulic tank this is the timber Ox Summit americanmade log splitter proudly made in the USA I am friends with these guys at logox I know the whole family they're great people when you buy something like this and you can call the guy on the phone and ask him what's up what's this what's that and he knows what he's talking about I think that's important it's also really I don't know flattering to know that I helped design this thing so the design of it is fairly unique I do believe this is 12 in high and this is a splitter wedge uh for multiple ways to split I think this is called a four-way wedge so 1 2 3 4 and it's kind of stuck on there pretty tight right now from Shipping here we go let that dude loose and you can just do the two-way split pretty cool here's all the lumber that came off of this thing like I said there's enough lumber…
