I might agree to 3 Tonn, 300 is slightly exaggerated

At about 2 tons per cord, it has split 150 cords. That's 300 tons.

1. Read the PSI rating on the pump tag

2. Calculate piston area

3. Multiply

4. Misplace decimal

Looks EXACTLY like the Didier 30 ton splitter I use to have. The overall size of your pic isn't big enough to encompass a 300 ton splitter!!

Yea caus it sure don't weigh no 300 tons, no way, but if it splits a 300 ton log I say OK

Let's not miss judge now. Sometimes exaggeration for the sake of good communication can be a good thing. We need a bit more background before we make any conclusions. Perhaps he has done 300 tons of wood with it so far or something like that. 300 and counting.
