Why is the cylinder rod on my Surge master Log Splitter moving slowly or not at all?

The cylinder rod on your Surge master Log Splitter might be moving slowly or not at all due to several reasons: * There may be no pressurized hydraulic oil because the oil filter is plugged (change the filter) or the hydraulic oil level is low (top it up). * Wood may be jammed around the wedge. If this is the case, shut the machine off and safely remove the wood. * The engine speed may be low. Ensure that the choke is off and the throttle is set to maximum. * There might not be enough pressure. In this case, you should call a technician because the system relief setting may be low (below 2750 psi).
