Description
The Super Handy GCAO023 20-Ton Horizontal Gas Log Splitter is proof that small footprints can deliver serious force. If you're after a dependable, easy-to-tow machine that cuts through the toughest rounds without breaking a sweat, this is the unit that earns its keep year after year.
Starting up is effortless thanks to the reliable recoil-start 7HP single-cylinder OHV gas engine, equipped with a cast-iron sleeve for long-term durability, a generous fuel tank for extended runtime, and a low-oil shutoff sensor that protects the engine from accidental damage.
Tired of wrestling oversized logs onto your splitter? The low-profile design takes the strain out of loading, while the integrated log cradle keeps every round locked firmly in place. This unit confidently handles logs up to 24 inches long and weighing as much as 100 pounds.
Twenty tons of raw splitting capacity puts the muscle exactly where you need it. The hydraulic oil system runs on a generous 4.5-gallon reservoir and operates at 14 GPM, delivering steady, uncompromising pressure through even the gnarliest hardwood rounds.
Engineered with a skewed wedge for maximum splitting efficiency, this splitter pairs an 11-second cycle time with a dependable auto-return valve, achieving up to 320 cycles per hour. The toolless log catcher makes assembly and disassembly a one-person job, whether you're setting up for a long day or breaking down for storage.
The two-stage gear pump intelligently shifts between high-flow / low-pressure mode when there's no resistance and low-flow / high-pressure mode when biting into a stubborn log — keeping productivity high and downtime low.
Fully yard-towable behind your rider mower or ATV with a standard 5/8-inch hitch pin, a 2-inch receiver bracket, and rugged 13-inch pneumatic tires, this splitter goes wherever the work takes you. Assembly is hassle-free thanks to clear, well-organized packaging and straightforward instructions.
EPA certified for clean, compliant operation, the GCAO023 ships with the confidence of dependable support and a network of service experts ready to back your purchase.
