CUMBERLAND, Wis. & LAS VEGAS - May 7, 2019 - PRLog -- Today at the National Hardware Show in Las Vegas, Earthquake^®, a U.S. manufacturer of outdoor power equipment for the rural, residential and light commercial markets since 1960, introduced its new 5-Ton Electric Log Splitter. Fully equipped with two side catch trays, a stand that positions the unit at waist height, plus a handle and sturdy wheels, the Earthquake 5-Ton Log Splitter offers power, portability and convenience.

"Earthquake has designed and manufactured electric log splitters for more than a decade," said Noah Marach, project manager, Earthquake, the lawn and garden division of Ardisam, Inc. "For wholesalers and retailers looking to expand their product offerings in this category, our 5-Ton Electric Log Splitter delivers power, proven performance and new convenience features in a compact, user-friendly machine."

The Earthquake 5-Ton Electric Log Splitter is engineered with precision gears and superior copper windings that supply a constant splitting force.
