PowerKing 22-Ton 4.5HP Kinetic Log Splitter – PK0322K
The PowerKing 22-ton 4.5 HP Kinetic Log Splitter PK0322K gives you the perfect balance of power and portability. Because it split logs in a fast and easy way, and there is no effort.
The Kohler 4.5HP Command PRO engine spins the two 25lb flywheels to generate the kinetic force, so, in a matter of seconds, they are at max speed and ready to unleash. Once you pull the engagement handle, all of that force is transferred to the ram, and it shoots out at a high rate of speed into the log slamming it into the wedge and splitting the log into 2 pieces. Also, the cycle time is only 3 seconds! Faster than any hydraulic splitter around.
The raised platform and table of the unit make the job easier. And the foldable front stand guarantees great stability, and a tow bar makes it easy for you to tow around the yard.

How to the define how powerful should be my log splitter?
Log splitters’ force is measured by Tonnage (5 Ton, 10 Ton, 20 Ton…), what represent the weight we’d need to place over the log to split it (instead of hitting it with an axe). When we use a 5 Ton log splitter it is like we place 10,000 pounds over the log to make it split.
OK but… how much Tons do I need to split my logs?
Considering you are going to split seasoned logs, the Tonnage (force) needed to split the logs is basically determined by two factors:
1) Tree’s hardness (Softwood or Hardwood?);
2) Logs’ thickness.
It happens because each different tree species may have different hardnesses and, also, the thicker is log, stronger it will be. So, to be sure that your log splitter will be able to split your logs, before taking the decision of which model you’ll be, we strongly recommend you to check on the table below what’s the Tonnage you’ll need, based on your Tree’s hardness and logs’ thickness.
| Tree | Wood Type | 6 inches | 12 inches | 18 inches | 24 inches |
|---|
| Aspen | Softwood | 4 ton | 12 ton | 20 ton | 27 ton |
| Spruce | Softwood | 4 ton | 12 ton | 20 ton | 27 ton |
| Poplar | Softwood | 4 ton | 12 ton | 20 ton | 27 ton |
| Fir | Softwood | 4 ton | 12 ton | 20 ton | 27 ton |
| Pine | Softwood | 4 ton | 12 ton | 20 ton | 27 ton |
| Cedar | Hardwood | 6 ton | 15 ton | 20 ton | 27 ton |
| Walnut | Hardwood | 7 ton | 20 ton | 26 ton | 30 ton |
| Magnolia | Hardwood | 7 ton | 20 ton | 26 ton | 30 ton |
| Beech | Hardwood | 7 ton | 20 ton | 26 ton | 30 ton |
| Ash | Hardwood | 7 ton | 20 ton | 26 ton | 30 ton |
| Maple | Hardwood | 7 ton | 20 ton | 26 ton | 30 ton |
| Birch | Hardwood | 7 ton | 20 ton | 26 ton | 30 ton |
| Elm | Hardwood | 10 ton | 22 ton | 26 ton | 30 ton |

The splitter is powerful and quick. My only gripe is that there is no assembly instructions. I had to put it together by blow out diagram.

Uncrated and assembled part of the day was done. Added oil and gas to the engine started on second pull ran smoothly. The splitter did really well on three cords so far. The assembly instruction book is not easy to understand and the pictures are helpful. I recommend this equipment so far we are satisfied.

Bought this for my son so I have very little first hand knowledge. However he is very impressed with the speed and power. He has had some knotty wood that he has had to cycle the machine through twice but it has always split on the second time. But as he says he tries to stay away from knotty wood since it does not stack well. He heats with wood so it has been used a great deal in the last month or two.

I couldn’t be happier with this log splitter. It is extremely easy to use and cuts fast. It will make selling firewood much more profitable this coming season.
