Trusted for decades by commercial and industrial users worldwide, the 4490 is Split-Fire’s largest and most powerful self-contained log splitter. With the same 32 tons of rated splitting force and 2-way splitting action as the 4290 log splitter, the 4490 is capable of handling nearly any sized log that can be thrown at it, while offering increased flexibility and productivity with the addition of an interchangeable 2-way/4-way splitting wedge and a longer, reinforced frame to handle the extra forces.
The knife can be swapped in less than 5 seconds thanks to a quick-change pin, letting you decide on the fly whether you want to quickly break down large, straight-grain logs to firewood size with the 4-way knife, or power through difficult, knotty wood with the 2-way knife.
For even more versatility, the 4490 has multiple weld-on options available to customize the wood splitter to perfectly fit your operation. There’s a reason this machine can be found all across the world, from frigid Canadian forests splitting frozen maple to the Australian outback splitting iron wood.
