Abstract
A hydraulic log splitter attachable to a tractor or the like having self-contained means for raising or lowering the machine. The motive power for the elevating means is the hydraulic ram itself and only a single, fixed attachment to the tractor is required. There is also disclosed a twin-tube log bed and adjustable stabilizing means for the machine. In one embodiment of the invention, means are provided for releasably slidably mounting the twin-tube log bed, which permits the splitter to be collapsed to a relatively compact size for shipment, storage and transport.
