Towing Your Log Splitter
Note: Applies to all Highway Towable Units.
Log Splitters with Turf Tires are Not Intended for Road Towing.
Take extra care when hooking up and towing your log splitter.
Before towing, make sure your log splitter is in safe towing
condition. Inspect the tires, bearings, lights, hitch, and safety
chains.
Make sure the hitch is attached securely when attaching the log
splitter to a vehicle. The hitch coupler and hitch ball should fit
snug when locked.
Attach your log splitter to your vehicle with the hitch and safety
chains. Make sure the safety chains cross under the hitch to
prevent the hitch from dropping to the ground should the hitch
disconnect. Chain hooks should have latches to prevent
disconnect. Each chain should have a breaking strength equal
to the gross weight of the log splitter.
Towing a log splitter puts additional weight on your vehicle.
Increase the space around your vehicle to drive and stop
safely.
When towing your log splitter, do avoid pot holes, curbs and all
other obstacles. At some speeds, a sudden bump may result in
an overturned log splitter.
