FAQ about this model
How much splitting force does the LZ-505 produce?
The Yardbeast LZ-505 delivers 32 tons of splitting force, powered by a 22 GPM two-stage hydraulic pump. This is enough for most hardwood rounds. Cycle time from full extension to full retraction is 11 seconds, so you get several splits per minute of steady operation.
What engine does it use and is it covered under warranty?
It runs on a Kohler Command Pro 14HP engine, backed by a 3-year commercial engine warranty. This is a gas-powered engine built for repeated daily use rather than occasional homeowner tasks.
Can I split logs in both horizontal and vertical positions?
Yes, the LZ-505 operates in both horizontal and vertical positions. This lets you split logs laid flat on the beam or stand larger, harder-to-lift rounds upright, without needing a separate machine for each orientation.
How durable is the splitting beam?
The beam is 3/8" thick all-around, which is built to handle the repeated stress of the 32-ton splitting force over time. This thickness is applied consistently around the beam rather than just on the top or sides.
How fast can I run through a pile of logs?
Each full cycle takes 11 seconds, driven by the 22 GPM two-stage hydraulic pump. That cycle speed, combined with the 32-ton force, makes it suited to processing larger volumes of wood in a single session rather than occasional small batches.
What does the LZ-505 cost and what's included?
Pricing starts at $4,199. The unit includes the Kohler Command Pro 14HP engine, 22 GPM two-stage hydraulic pump, and the 3/8" thick splitting beam configured for both horizontal and vertical operation.
