Cable winch for log splitters – pull heavy logs safely and with minimal effort
A cable winch for log splitters makes firewood preparation much easier. Especially with heavy or unwieldy logs, it eliminates the tedious task of manually rolling them up to the splitter. Instead, the hydraulic winch pulls the wood in a controlled manner to the working position. This saves effort, reduces the time required, and ensures a more consistent workflow—especially with long or heavy logs.
For users who regularly process large quantities of wood, a hydraulic cable winch is a useful addition to the log splitter. It assists with material transport directly at the work site and helps significantly reduce physical strain.
Hydraulic Cable Winch for Jansen Tractor Log Splitters
The hydraulic cable winch from Jansen was specially developed for select tractor log splitters with PTO drive. It utilizes the log splitter’s existing hydraulic system and allows for the convenient feeding of logs without additional effort.
With a pulling force of approximately 500 kg, even heavy logs can be safely pulled up to the log splitter. The sturdy steel cable, with a diameter of 6 mm and a length of about 19 meters, offers sufficient reach to comfortably move logs to the splitter from a short distance.
Technical Specifications
- Hydraulic drive via the log splitter
- Pulling force of approx. 500 kg
- Steel cable approx. 19 m long
- Cable diameter 6 mm
- Breaking strength of the steel cable: approx. 1,000 kg
- Pulling speed: approx. 0.6 m/s

For which log splitters is the cable winch suitable?
The hydraulic cable winch is specifically designed for Jansen’s PTO-driven tractor log splitters and is compatible with the TS-22, TS-30, and TS-30K models. Thanks to its precision-engineered design, the cable winch integrates seamlessly into the workflow.
Since the hydraulic connections, mounts, and drive system are tailored to these machines, you should always check before purchasing to ensure that your existing log splitter is one of the compatible models.
When is a cable winch worth it for a log splitter?
A hydraulic cable winch offers significant advantages, especially when processing large sections of logs or working without additional loading aids.
The wood no longer needs to be moved to the splitter by hand but can be pulled in directly with the winch. This reduces strain on the back and joints while improving the flow of material.
This reduction in physical effort is especially noticeable during longer work sessions or when handling larger quantities of firewood.
What should you look for when buying a cable winch for a log splitter?
In addition to pulling force, compatibility with the specific log splitter plays a crucial role. Equally important are sufficient cable length, a sturdy steel cable, and easy integration into the existing hydraulic system. High-quality components and a robust design ensure that the cable winch operates reliably even with regular use.
Jansen – Accessories for Wood Splitters
The hydraulic cable winch was developed specifically as an accessory for select Jansen tractor-powered log splitters. This ensures that all components fit together perfectly. Even after purchase, users benefit from a steady supply of replacement parts and support from the Jansen master workshop. This enables long-term use and ensures that wear parts remain available when needed.
