Published May 23, 2014 · Recall initiated: December 10, 2009
What's the hazard

What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled log splitters and contact MTD Products Inc. to determine if their log splitter is included in the recall, to receive inspection instructions and to receive a free repair if needed.
