Kinetic Splitter General Information 1. Break in period - Break in period for the kinetic splitter is 500 cycles. 2. Principle of operation - This unit is designed to outperform the traditional hydraulic 20ton log splitter. Splitting power is derived from 1 spinning fly wheel. When actuation handle is moved to split position, the rotational energy stored in flywheel is converted to splitting force. This unit is fast and powerful.
