Questions & Answers
What is overall length
a little over 3ft (37 in).
Overall about 3feet. Will only take an 18 to 24 inch small log. Suitable for kindling. Will not split anything much above 3-4 inches in diameter.
Dear Robert, The overall length of the Sun Joe 15 Amp 5 Ton Electric Log Splitter with Hydraulic Ram is about 30 inches in length. Hope this helps, if you have any other questions please let us know. Thanks Customer Service Team Snow Joe + Sun Joe
I just read the Sun Joe manual and see this crazy storage instruction repeated twice: it says you must store the splitter at between 77 and 131 degrees Fahrenheit. That can't be right. I spoke to customer service at Sun Joe and they quoted that same instruction and said that is what the manual says. I have looked up similar 5 ton electric splitters and see either no mention of storage temperature (RYOBI) or a more reasonable range of between -10 degrees and +130 degrees (Earthquake). Do I need to worry about this?
Just leave it in basement or house so small. Can fit anywhere you dont have to move to use i think the lowest temp is 40 degrees not 77
Dear Home Depot Customer, The Sun Joe 15 Amp 5 Ton Electric Log Splitter with Hydraulic Ram can be store in a garage or shed as well as a room temperature area. Hope this helps, if you have any other questions please let us know. Thanks Customer Service Team Snow Joe + Sun Joe
What would be the best extension cord to use with the SunJoe splitter? I have a 100 ft. that I use with my SunJoe lawnmower, can I use that same extension cord with this splitter?
I would think at least 12 gauge but 100 feet is a bit long. It may work.
12 gauge at a minimum - especially for 100 feet
Due to the demanding drawl of 15 amperage at peak operation of this unit It would be wise to go with a lower gauge cord In order to ensure optimal performance if this unit is even capable of it. I’m using a 100 foot 10 gauge cord.
Dear Mark, The recommended extension cord to be use with the Sun Joe 15 Amp 5 Ton Electric Log Splitter with Hydraulic Ram is either a 50 foot 14 gauge or 100 foot 12 gauge. Hope this helps, if you have any other questions please let us know. Thanks Customer Service Team Snow Joe + Sun Joe
12 Ga. grounded. (three wire) Use a grounded outlet only.

Dear Abdul, Any hydraulic oil will work for the 15 Amp 5 Ton Electric Log Splitter with Hydraulic Ram. Hope this helps, if you have any other questions please let us know. Thanks Customer Service Team Snow Joe + Sun Joe
I am interested in a cover for my chimney, Where do I find it?
Dear Pat, Thank you for contacting Snow Joe + Sun Joe. We apologize for the inconvenience but we do not sell chimney covers. Are you needing to purchase a cover for the 15 Amp 5 Ton Electric Log Splitter with Hydraulic Ram?
Can you adjust the ram for a short log to shorten the cycle?
I don't think so.
Dear Home Depot Customer, We apologize this log Splitter does not have this option. Hope this helps, if you have any other questions please let us know. Thanks Customer Service Team Snow Joe + Sun Joe
No real reason for an adjustment since you place the log up against the Ram.
No real need too
