Hello, just got a Task Force 5-ton electric splitter. So far it is working great. The only thing I was thinking about is some king of a stop block to stop the ram from going all the way back. Most of the wood I burn is 18" or under and thought it would be faster if it did not go to the return stop all the time. Has anyone tried say a 2x4 block behind the pusher? I would remove it when done so the ram is protected. Also is there any reason to keep opening and closing the bleeder screw, or can it just be left open? Thanks for the help.
