Why is the cylinder shaft speed slow on my DR Log Splitter?
- L
  lawrenceruthAug 10, 2025
  If the cylinder shaft speed of your DR Log Splitter is slow while extending and retracting, several factors could be responsible. The oil level might be incorrect, so check it. The oil could also be contaminated; in that case, drain the old oil, clean the reservoir, and refill it. Ensure that the pump inlet hoses are clear, unblocked, and not kinked, and that you are using short, large diameter inlet hoses to avoid excessive pump inlet vacuum. For other potential causes such as a damaged pump coupling, slow engine speed, damaged relief valve, control valve leaking internally, or an internally damaged cylinder, consult an authorized service dealer.

Why won't my DR 22-Ton Log Splitter split wood?

  If your DR Log Splitter isn't splitting wood or the wood splits too slowly, start by checking the oil level and ensuring it's correct. Also, the oil could be contaminated, so drain the old oil, clean the reservoir, and refill. Make sure the pump inlet hoses are clear, unblocked, and not kinked to prevent excessive pump inlet vacuum. Avoid attempting to split wood against the grain, as this can overload the cylinder. For other potential issues like a pump check valve or control valve leaking internally, or an internally damaged cylinder, it is recommended to consult an authorized service dealer.

How to troubleshoot a cylinder rod that will not move on a DR Log Splitter?
- C
  Chelsea MoonAug 20, 2025
  If the cylinder rod on your DR Log Splitter won't move, start by checking the oil level. Ensure that the shipping plugs have been removed from the hydraulic hoses by disconnecting the hydraulic hoses, removing the shipping plugs, and reconnecting the hoses. Also, make sure the pump coupling is not loose and correct the engine/pump alignment if necessary. For other potential issues, such as a broken shaft, set screws in coupling not adjusted properly, damaged pump coupling, damaged relief valve, hydraulic lines blocked, damaged control valve, or blocked control valve, it is recommended to consult an authorized service dealer. If the hydraulic lines are blocked, flush and clean the hydraulic system.

What to do if the control handle on my DR 22-Ton Log Splitter doesn't return to neutral?

  Melissa RivasAug 25, 2025
  If the control handle on your DR Log Splitter does not return to neutral when released from the forward position, the hydraulic fluid may be too cold, too thick, or contaminated. Try warming up the engine. If that doesn't work, replace the hydraulic fluid. For a damaged control valve, it is recommended to consult an authorized service dealer.
