McCulloch 4 Ton Electric Log Splitter # FB4052 Questions & Answers
Need a switch, kedu electric 564
I'm not familiar with this unit but you can replace the switch with any other that has the same or better ratings that will fit the slot its in. You can also relocate the switch to another location like the power cord if you need to, to make it work, as long as you do it safely.
Just got a log splitter cantget started motor
Hi, not much info to go on here, but;
have you ensured that your outlet automatic fuse (if applicable) will handle the current of the electric motor? Check ratings. If motor rating is close to automatic fuse limits, you will need a "slow" type auto fuse or use a larger capasity outlet. This the first thing to check before looking further at the splitter itself, assuming that it is the fuse of your outlet that you blew?.

I have a 4052 mcCulloch
Not having a mcCULLOCH manual I dont know what they reccomend,but on mine I just use HI grade industrial/commercial hydraulic fluid. I have been using this for 15 years and have had no trouble. I change oil and filter every year. Thank you.
Splitter (2 years old) motor won't shut off.
First of all, I hate to, but have to ask, have you verified oil level is up to proper level? Have you checked power at directional solenoid when handle is moved to different directions, as well as released? Obviously when handle is in stop position, there shouldn't be power to motor in either direction. I can't see exact model, or design obviously,but that would be a good place to start.
Was just curious if the 4ton 2hp electric wood
Hi,
Sorry but I think it will be a 220V motor.
They do not advertise the voltage very well and I had to do some digging to find that the motor pulls 12.5 maps which would make it a 220 v motor. At 110v a 2 Hp motor would be pulling 20 amps or more which would still make it too much for most household circuits.
Running a new line for your splitter should not be a big project for most electrictians... Also if your husband has a gas generator most of them will run that splitter and then it would be portable...! Just load up the generator and the splitter and he can split anywhere...
