Product Description

No Sales Tax! (Most States)

This Brave VH1730GX 30 ton log splitter that has the convenient option to split Vertical and Horizontal. The orange powder coated wood splitters were designed with durability in mind.

The VH1730GX comes standard with the Honda GX200 engine. The log splitter has an average 14 second cycle time, which is a great combination for both speed and power.

Log Cradles (Included) - HV units catch falling wood saving you from bending over and picking up split wood off the ground and splitting again. Just imagine the amount of extra times you could save from bending over picking up firewood to split again from each cord of wood?

Options:

Drainzit Oil Hose Kit - Drainzit oil hoses make changing oil easier and cleaner! Drainzit oil drain hoses allow you to change the oil in your small, gas-powered engine without tipping, dismounting, or modifying your engine in any way.

Log Splitter Cover - High quality log splitter cover with draw strings to protect your investment from the elements.

Beastly splitter!

Absolutely love the Brave 30 ton w/Honda 200 GX engine. It assembled perfectly. The I-beam/hydraulic cylinder component is 350 lbs so a friend comes in handy while attaching it. Remember you’ll need 8.5 gallons of hydraulic fluid. Only quibble is the log holders should be a made from thicker gauge steel to prevent bending. I’ve been slaying gnarly hardwoods of all types flawlessly. The Honda engine starts first pull. It’s remarkably quiet and sips fuel. Wood Splitters direct shipped promptly and item arrived unscathed. Very satisfied.

Hi Chris. Nice looking woodpile! Great to hear you love your Brave. They make a great log splitter. Thanks for the review.
