Hello!
I have a Huss Log Splitter (not sure of the age, but I do it was made in Toledo Ohio).
Today when splitting, hydraulic oil began to flow out the top of the oil reservoir through the cap/filter on the top of the resevoir.
It really isn't a cap, it is a PVC fitting screwed into the reservoir with a Black Cap/Filter on top of the PVC fitting. It say Nylon Filter Corp on top of that. You can pull the cap off of it (the PVC piece) and it looks like it has some type of a filter connected to that cap.
I am new to splitters and I bought this splitter used, but it has been working great.
I was splitting some tough wood at the time.
I also know the splitter was pretty unlevel attached to my truck.
Beyond that it does not seem to be having any problems, but the oil was flowing pretty good out that cap.
I can provide pictures if needed.
Thanks for your thoughts in advance.
Mike
