Conquer Tough Logs with the Yardbeast LZ-705 40-Ton Log Splitter

The Yardbeast LZ-705 40-Ton Log Splitter is engineered for serious wood processing, delivering unmatched power to tackle even the most challenging logs. Designed for homeowners, landowners, or commercial operators facing large volumes of dense, knotty timber, this machine transforms arduous tasks into efficient work. At its core is a robust 40-ton splitting force, effortlessly cleaving through hardwoods and irregular pieces. Powered by a reliable Kohler CH640 20.5HP Command Pro V-Twin engine, it ensures consistent performance. With a rapid 9-second cycle time and the flexibility of both horizontal and vertical splitting, the LZ-705 maximizes productivity, making quick work of your firewood needs.

Durability is central to the LZ-705's design, featuring a 1/2-inch thick heavy-duty beam built to withstand years of rigorous use. Its hydraulic system is thoughtfully integrated, with hoses tucked away and the cylinder fully concealed, protecting vital components from impact and debris while maintaining a clean profile. This robust construction minimizes wear and tear, contributing to long-term reliability and reduced maintenance. Mobility is also key; equipped with ST205/75D15 tires, the splitter moves smoothly across varied terrain, simplifying transport around your property or to different work sites. The Yardbeast LZ-705 represents a significant investment in efficiency and enduring performance for demanding log splitting tasks.

FAQ about this model

How much force does the LZ-705 put out, and what size logs can it handle?

It delivers 40 tons of splitting force, enough for large-diameter hardwood rounds most homeowner splitters can't handle. The 28 GPM two-stage hydraulic pump and 1/2 inch heavy-duty steel beam keep the cycle fast and rigid under full load, with a 9 second cycle time from start to return.

What engine does it use, and how much power does it have?

It's powered by a Kohler CH640 20.5HP Command Pro V-Twin engine producing 35.7 ft-lbs of torque. This is a commercial-grade gas engine, not an electric or PTO unit, so it runs independently without needing a tractor or generator hookup.

Can I split logs standing up, or only lying flat?

Both. The LZ-705 operates in horizontal and vertical positions, so you can split logs lying on the beam or stand up larger, heavier rounds you can't lift onto the tray. This flexibility matters if you're processing mixed log sizes on a job site or firewood lot.

Is this splitter towable, and what's it riding on?

It comes fitted with ST205/75D15 tires, which are trailer-rated tires sized for towing behind a truck. Beyond the tire spec, we don't have axle or hitch weight ratings, so confirm those details with your towing vehicle's capacity before hitting the road.

What warranty coverage comes with the LZ-705?

The Kohler engine carries a 3-year commercial warranty, and the Yardbeast LZ-705 unit itself is backed by a 2-year limited product warranty. That's separate coverage for the engine versus the splitter frame, hydraulics, and other components.

How fast does it cycle through a log?

The full cycle time is 9 seconds, driven by the 28 GPM two-stage hydraulic pump. That's the time from pushing the log through to the ram returning, which matters if you're processing a large volume of wood and want to keep throughput high.
