If the wood won't split or splits too slowly, several factors could be at play. Make sure the pump inlet hoses are clear and unblocked. Check the oil level and, if contaminated, drain the oil, clean the reservoir, and refill. Also, avoid attempting to split wood against the grain, as this can overload the cylinder.
Why is my Troy-Bilt LS 27 cylinder shaft speed so slow?
