Issue

The recalled log splitter’s hydraulic cylinder rod can separate from the piston, preventing the wedge from retracting. Re-engaging the rod to the piston can cause the rod and wedge to move forward at an unexpected increased speed, posing injury hazards. Consumers should not attempt to fix the recalled product themselves.

As of April 18, 2024, the company has received two reports of incidents in Canada, and no reports of injury.  In the United States, the company has received five reports of incidents and no reports of injury.

What you should do

If consumers experience the wedge failing to retract, consumers should immediately stop using the recalled log splitter and cylinder kits and contact Oregon Tool for installation of a free replacement cylinder.

For more information, consumers can contact Oregon Tool by telephone at 833-948-2590, from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. EST, Monday to Friday, by email at [email protected] or online at https://www.oregontool.com/product-recalls/ or www.oregonproducts.com and click on Product Recalls for more information.
