Portek Charger 8.5 Tonne Impact Log Splitter

The Portek Charger is a super-fast, powerful and portable machine designed with the build quality you come to expect from the Portek brand. It is packed full of valuable time-saving features such as convenient handles, strong chassis and wheels. The Charger can be positioned on any flat ground, ready to start work.Two large spinning flywheels, powered by a 1.5kW electric motor, drive the powerful and robust ram with a force of 8.5 tonnes. The machine uses kinetic energy to hit your logs with high impact; cutting them quickly and safely.For the release mechanism, 2 hands are needed. One to engage the drive mechanism, the other to release the ram. The ram then springs back in no time at all, ready for the next log to be positioned. The heavy-duty, high-density polymer guards ensure you are safe from the mechanics.With a cycle of under 1 second, this is truly the fastest log splitter you’ve ever seen. It works as fast as you do – no waiting around and no tiring crouching as with slow hydraulic machines.
