What this means for you
The recalled log splitter's hydraulic cylinder rod can separate from the piston, preventing the wedge from retracting. Reengaging the rod to the piston can cause the rod and wedge to move unexpectedly, posing injury hazards.
What you should do
- 1 Keep using Oregon, PowerPro, Country Tuff, and Speeco branded log splitters and cylinder kits only as advised. See the remedy below.
- 2 Set it aside where it won't be used by mistake.
- 3 Contact Oregon Tool Inc. to arrange your repair. See the official notice below for contact details.
- 4 Keep the product until your remedy is fully processed. You may need it.
Official remedy (Repair): If consumers experience the wedge failing to retract, the consumer should immediately stop using the recalled product and contact Oregon Tool or their dealer to schedule a time for Oregon Tool or the dealer to install a free replacement cylinder. Consumers should not attempt to fix the recalled product themselves.
