The hydraulic pump on a log splitter requires high torque at low RPMs. The 355 cc delivers consistent torque without bogging down under 20-ton splitting loads. Its splash lubrication system works effectively even when the engine runs at a slight angle.

To understand the performance, you must separate from horsepower . A 355 cc engine is not twice as powerful as a 200cc—it is roughly 75% more powerful in terms of torque, but only 30-40% more in peak horsepower due to RPM limitations.
