Didier splitters

[Wife'nHubby]

Would it be possible to get a copy of the owners manuals? I sent a PM to Shari, but haven't heard back as of yet... Anyone with a copy please send me a message.

Thanks so much!!!

I sent the files 1/22 - check your spam folder. If not there let me know and I will send again.

I have a Didier model 30101 ram just started to pop when pressure builds on wood shoots wood 20 feet any help ? seem like it doesn't kick down to second stage.

I am not sure of which pump is on that model but if it is a 2-stage will switch to low flow/high pressure if it doesn't the engine will stall.
The wood flying is not because of the hydraulics by itself it is more due to particular pieces of wood I have had a couple that popped that way.

Ram stops when touches wood then pressure seems to build then pops on every log I have didier pump 3 piece it's a longer pump

I just put a new motor on my very old Didier splitter. Now that the splitter is running again, i want to find some info on hydraulic filter. The brand is cross, 25 micron is the screen but i cannot find a part number for the filter. The filter itself has no printer number On the body. Anyone with a manual, could you look up the filter number so i can try to locate one? my filter mount has a number 4z0014 nothing matches that number that i can find. I appreciate any help on this.

check hydraulic fluid level and make sure the splitter is sitting somewhat level.

I cannot get the filter off and I need to find another filter. Everything on the splitter is working but the filter is very old, I cannot identify a filter part number. Any idea's? I did replace the motor with one from harbour freight.

I don't believe Didiers came with filters, at least mine didn't. That setup is something someone added - If you can replumb it to bypass the filter, just to test your theory, I'd do that.

It looks like a Cross brand filter assembly. A NAPA 1551 filter shows up when cross referenced. There are other brands also.

Thanks, I need to borrow a filter wrench to remove the one on there now. The splitter sat for years unused until I finally got the Harbour Freight motor; the filter seems stuck on with years of dirt. I will look for that model number. So far, I had not found any plate or marks other than a few decals. Thanks again.

Been there. Waiting to get new filter before going that route. I still have a very big pile of fir tree to split. Old stuck filter, better than no filter. ; )

Thanks to all for the help. I had searched Didier before but not found any info. Now I have your experiences to source, I will get my little splitter all prettied up. Lacking out buildings, I plan to build myself a splitter house to protect it so it will last another 30 years.

I found the filter, see below.

Any chance I could get a copy of the manual? I am in the process of fixing up my splitter. [email protected]

Here is my didier. Got it ten years ago with a new motor.

Works awesome! I'm so proud of it!

I use the bucket to sit on while running it.
