Kind of a minor issue with the auto return on my splitter. In the horizontal position the auto return works fine. In the vertical position it doesn’t. It might return a few inches or most the way but hardly ever all the way. It goes into the detent but then pops out. I think it’s because when my splitter is vertical it shakes a lot. The hydraulic cylinder is pinned at the top but it has some play. I think it’s suppose to be this way but when vertical the hydraulic cylinder shakes a little and I think this just shakes it out of detent. I’m not sure about this.
A couple of pictures. One close up shows the valve, which has a cap on top. With the cap off there is an adjustment, which shows in the last picture. I assume this controls the pressure but am not sure. Either way not a big deal, I’m just wondering if there is an easy fix.
