CBNA-8.8/3.6 Log Splitter Hydraulic Pump 2 Stage Log Splitter Pumps

The CBNA-8.8/3.6 Log Splitter Hydraulic Pump is a two-stage hydraulic gear pump designed for efficient operation in log splitters, presses, and other equipment requiring rapid cylinder movement at low pressure before switching to high pressure for heavy loads. It features a cast iron front and aluminum body for durability. The pump delivers 8.8 GPM (gallons per minute) in the low-pressure stage (650 PSI) and 3.6 GPM in the high-pressure stage (up to 3000 PSI), with automatic switching between stages.

Key Benefits of 2 Stage Hydraulic Pump for Log Splitter

• Enhanced Efficiency Through Dual-Stage Operation: The 2 stage log splitter pump optimizes performance by delivering high flow at low pressure for rapid cylinder extension, then automatically switches to high pressure for splitting, reducing cycle times and improving productivity for log splitters handling 5- to 35-ton capacities.
• Increased Durability with Robust Construction: Constructed with a cast iron front and aluminum body, the log splitter hydraulic pump withstands high-pressure conditions and harsh environments. This durability ensures long-term reliability, minimizing maintenance costs and downtime for log splitter operators in demanding applications.
• Versatile Compatibility with Equipment: Designed for log splitters, presses, and other hydraulic systems, the CBNA-8.8/3.6 hydraulic log splitter pump supports engines from 5 HP and operates at up to 3600 RPM, offering flexibility for various setups and ensuring seamless integration with standard log splitter designs.
• Optimized Flow and Pressure Balance: With 11 GPM at 650 PSI in the low-pressure stage and 3.2 GPM at up to 3000 PSI in the high-pressure stage, the pump balances speed and force, enabling efficient splitting of tough logs without overloading the system.
• Automatic Stage Switching for Ease of Use: The two stage log splitter pump’s automatic transition between low- and high-pressure stages simplifies operation, eliminating the need for manual adjustments. This feature enhances user experience, making it ideal for both professional and amateur log splitter operators seeking consistent performance.
• Cost-Effective Performance for Heavy Loads: By combining high-speed retraction with powerful splitting force, the 2 stage hydraulic pump for log splitters reduces fuel consumption and wear on the engine, offering cost savings over single stage hydraulic pump for log splitters while maintaining high performance for heavy-duty log splitting tasks.

Maintenance Tips for Hydraulic Log Splitter Pumps

• Regularly Check Hydraulic Fluid Levels: Ensure the hydraulic fluid is at the recommended level to prevent log splitter hydraulic pump cavitation and overheating. Use high-quality hydraulic oil (e.g., AW32 or AW46) and check the reservoir before each use, topping off as needed to maintain optimal performance.
• Replace Hydraulic Fluid Periodically: Change the hydraulic fluid every 100 hours of operation or annually to remove contaminants and maintain viscosity. Drain the old fluid, clean the reservoir, and refill with fresh oil to prevent log splitter pump wear and ensure smooth operation.
• Inspect and Replace Filters: Use a 25-micron filter and inspect it regularly for clogs or debris, replacing it every 50-100 hours or as recommended. Clean filters prevent contaminants from damaging the hydraulic pump log splitter’s internal components, extending the lifespan of the hydraulic system.
• Check for Leaks and Tighten Connections: Routinely inspect hoses, fittings, and seals for leaks or wear. Tighten loose connections and replace damaged components immediately to prevent fluid loss and maintain pressure. Leaks can reduce efficiency and cause hydraulic log splitter pump failure if left unaddressed.
• Monitor Pump Temperature During Operation: Ensure the log splitter hydraulic pump does not overheat by avoiding prolonged use under extreme loads. Allow cooling periods during heavy operation and check for proper ventilation around the pump to prevent heat-related damage and maintain consistent performance.
• Lubricate and Inspect the Pump Shaft: Periodically lubricate the hydraulic log splitter pump shaft to reduce friction and wear, and inspect for signs of damage or misalignment. Ensure the shaft coupling is secure and properly aligned with the engine to avoid vibration and premature pump failure.
