Just got home with my new to me Rayco, I could only have dreamed about a splitter like it. I would never spend 5 or 6 grand for one. I havent run a timberwolf but cant imagine anything could be much better. The adjustable wedge is awesome and I have never had a loglift either. Best part !!!!!2600.00 bucks 13 horse honda, 5 inch ram, 22gpm pump 10 sec cycle time!!!! I gonna have to cut more big wood!!!!!!!
Woo hoo new craigslist splitter!!!

Not bad If i had the money and was looking I would have bought it
I have never seen nor used a splitter with a log lift. That being said it looks like there are 4 control levers. What do they all do??
If I had to assume I would guess
1)Ram
2)Log lift
3)Adjustable wedge
But what does the other do??
With all those levers, I could see getting confused after a beer or three

I have to admit, I am a bit jealous of that bad boy. Excellent find! Do us a small favor? Make a video of that in action? 
I questioned the same thing about the 4th lever. It is an auto split, if you pull both levers forward they will stay and it will cycle the ram all the way forward then return by itself. Pretty cool when splitting by yourself so I can get another log. Only issue I see so far is cleaning up the split logs....they pile up quick!!! lol.. I will work on the video but never posted one so I will give it a try. Only wood thru so far is big box elder and some pin oak, both never slowed it down, and the honda is sooooo much quieter.

fresh too
That baby is not very old either. The way the top of the 4 way is boxed and the steel plate that backs up the wedge, is the way they are currently being made. I bought a new one in January. I agree with you, it is a beautiful splitter. The way the wedge is pinned to the lift cylinder is new too.
I am sure you have bought the last splitter you will ever need.

Yea Columbus Ohio
Funny thing I never check that one, I always check dayton and cincy but hardly ever check Columbus. It was just a fluke find, I was going to build one and was researching all the options I wanted but I dont think I could round up the parts for that kinda money. Just bored and playing, found it the night he posted it. He told me he couldnt believe all the calls he got after me, I didnt tell him he was probably a solid grand cheap.....(Afraid he might back out.) He.He...
