9 Ton Petrol Log Splitter FAQ

The 9 ton log splitter is a firm favourite since its introduction in 2020. It shares many traits with our previous 8 ton model, so as such, many of the points here can be applied to the model stocked between 2008 and 2019. The below FAQ is designed to help assist with anything which has come up over the years, to get you up and running as swiftly as possible. We also carry a full range of spares which can be found in log splitter spares. Some points on this page also apply to our previous 10 ton petrol log splitter model.

General Questions

Yes, we carry spare parts for all machines in the Titan Pro range. Order from our full range of spares for the TP9TPLS.

 

Maintenance

  • If the machine has been in storage prior to this issue occurring, the spool valve is likely sticking.
  • If you follow the long rod down the back of the machine, you should find where it goes into a black cast valve.
  • Squirt some WD40 into/onto that valve.
  • Move the levers up and down to work this in.
  • This may take a few applications but should eventually allow the splitting head to return to the upright position.
  • You can see the spool valve (as on our 10 ton petrol log splitter model) circled in yellow on our image by clicking this link.

  • Remove the axe head box section from the main body.
  • Disconnect the ram piston linkage from the axe head box section.
  • This can be found by removing the two black plastic grommets at the top of the axe head box section.
  • Behind these, you will be able to see the connection.
  • Once this is released the axe head can be lifted out of the main body of the log splitter.
  • Looking down into the main body, you will be able to see the sleeve kit, which is bolted to the inside of the main body's box section.
  • These need to be unscrewed from the body (screws located from the inside of the machine) and the old sleeve kit removed. Ensure you keep these screws safe unless you have replacements ready.
  • Install the new kit by screwing the replacement plastic plates back into the positions of the old sleeve kit.
  • Reinstall the axe head box section and reattach the ram piston linkage.
  • Finally, replace the plastic grommets on either side of the axe head.
