    Why does the Boss Industrial Log Splitter ram jerk or vibrate?
    • K
      Kevin GravesJul 27, 2025
      The log ram on your Boss Industrial Log Splitter might jerk or vibrate due to several reasons: * The unit is not placed on level ground. Reposition the log splitter to ensure that the wheel end of the unit is no higher than the other end. * Lack of hydraulic oil. Check the oil level and refill if necessary. * Excessive air in the hydraulic system. Ensure the vent plug is loose during operation. * The log splitter is being over forced. In this case, turn off and restart the unit.
