DK2 OPS240 Kinetic Log Splitter | 40-Ton, 1-Second Cycle, 7HP Kohler Engine

Product Description

One second. That is how long it takes the DK2 OPS240 to complete a full splitting cycle. While a standard hydraulic splitter is still retracting, this machine has already split the next log and is ready for another. If you split serious volumes of firewood and time is money, the difference is not subtle — it is dramatic.

The OPS240 is a kinetic log splitter — instead of relying purely on hydraulic pressure, it uses a flywheel-driven kinetic energy system that stores and releases force in an explosive burst, delivering 40 tons of splitting power in a 1-second cycle. The result is a machine that processes firewood at a pace that standard hydraulic splitters simply cannot match.

Powered by a Kohler Command PRO CH270 7HP 208CC engine with 10.7 ft/lb of maximum torque, the OPS240 handles logs up to 22 inches long and 22 inches in diameter without hesitation. The 8-inch heat-treated steel expansion wedge with bearing glide force and auto-retraction drives through dense hardwood cleanly every single time. The auto-retract valve with adjustable detent keeps the cycle smooth and consistent — load, split, move on.

The oversized steel worktable keeps logs stable and your workspace organized, the H-beam sits at a comfortable 25-inch working height, and the quick-release clamshell body gives you easy access to the interior for maintenance without tools. ATV-locking wheels and a removable tow bar with 2-inch ball coupler make it easy to move around the property — off-road only at a maximum of 15 MPH.

EPA Phase III and CARB Phase III certified — compliant in all 50 states including California.

Ideal For: Serious homeowners, firewood producers, farmers, and contractors who split high volumes of firewood regularly and need a kinetic log splitter that processes wood dramatically faster than a standard hydraulic machine.
