What happens here
After the log splitter is started and warmed up, the team prepares to transport it to the splitting location. The creator reverses the Honda Pioneer 1000-6 with the attached log splitter and drives it down a gravel road past hay bales. He positions the log splitter near a large pile of oak logs, ensuring the log lift is on the side of the logs. He then demonstrates deploying the log deck by pulling a pin, explaining that the log deck lifts logs onto the splitting beam, saving effort and preventing back strain. The overall plan is to leave the log splitter connected to the side-by-side for the duration of the work.
Goal: Maneuver the log splitter and activate the log deck
