The Avant Log Splitter is the best tool to process large amounts of firewood quickly and efficiently. For added safety, the Avant system features two control levers that much be activated with both logs to activate the hydraulic press. The height of the blade is easily adjustable, so you can split logs into two or four pieces.

Avant Log Splitters come with two speed, the lower speed increases the splitting force and is used for denser wood. After pushing the log against the blade, the cylinder automatically reverses, and you are set to cut your next log in just seconds.

Each model can process approximately 30 logs per minute, meaning you can process an entire year’s worth of firewood in a single afternoon.
