I have a quick question I couldn't find the answer to from searching.
I was using my splitter yesterday (20 degrees) and noticed the the detent wasn't working properly (auto return) on the return stroke. I would pull the lever up and go get another round, but noticed half the time the cylinder stopped before being fully retracted. Is this a sign my control valve is going bad? It says "Energy" on it. The best I could tell it may be a Prince. I checked their website and mine looks a little different. The splitter is about 8 years old.
I wrote it off as being related to the cold weather, but it did it after the fluid warmed up. Maybe the detent needs adjusting somehow? Any suggestions? Thanks.
