Forest Master FM8 5 ton electric hydraulic log splitter
Forest Master FM8 log splitter is the perfect machine if you are just starting out with log splitting or have a small to medium wood burner. The FM8 is equipped with a 2200 watt motor which helps the machine reach 5 tons of force with ease. Now featuring a heavy-duty carriage, this helps make this log splitter more robust.
Featuring two-hand operation and supplied with the workbench and safety guard, using a log splitter has never been safer, once attached the safety guard allows you to split logs and contain them, this prevents any debris leaving the cage, in turn greatly reducing the risk of injury. The safety guard is also different from other designs, by removing the holes on the sides, the possibility of a log damaging the guard is greatly reduced. This also means that the log splitter meets the latest safety standards.
The FM8 is a powerful entry-level log splitter capable of splitting logs up to 370mm* in length and 250mm* in diameter. Unlike other small electric log splitters which only have 1500 Watt motors and 4 ton of force, the FM8 is fitted with a 2200 watt motor which gives it 5 ton of force. This is an ideal entry-level model for people with smaller fires or wood-burning stoves. Now featuring a heavy-duty carriage, this helps make this log splitter more robust. The splitter is set to 5 ton*.

Ordered this log splitter after trying to get one delivered to the Isle of Man by 3 other firms all without success. ARROW UK, however was a different matter. The Log Splitter was ordered and 3 working days later delivered to my door. The next day I split a huge amount of logs and this machine never failed at all. It split everything I tried, including the greenest wood and logs full of knots. If you want a Log Splitter then you can not go wrong with the Forest Master Range, these are well built and do exactly what it says on the tin. I would highly recommend both ARROW UK and the FM8 Log Splitter.

So far an excellent machine, I am well pleased with it , sorry I did not buy one before now. Most of the timber I burn is Spruce, Larch and Pine and splitting this with an axe can be very tedious and back breaking. However this Log Splitter does the job in seconds even the most knotty blocks are no problem with the extra blade. With me cutting and my wife splitting we filled the woodshed in no time at all.
Again great machine well worth the money.

Was introduced to this model by a colleague,ordered one Thursday 27th October, received it 28th October. Super service!!! Ordered it with stand and duocut blade. After unpacking and a quick read of user manual I had it assembled and running in no time at all, including assembling the stand and fitting of the duocut blade. Did a trial run and had split 6 good sized logs in a matter of minutes. Would recommend this to anyone with log burner. Reg Evans.
