Serious question...how often do these splitters get stuck and require the use of the log stripper to get unstuck? Maybe this is a good argument for higher tonnage machines? This just doesn't happen with mine.
Good Question. It has only happened a couple of times. Usually on a twisted gnarly piece. It gets stuck on the ram and gets pulled between the ram and the stops. If I was quicker I would have stopped it and reversed it.
