Log Splitters use this plug pipe to cover the oil tube and measure the amount of oil in the engine with the included dipstick. The dipstick sits inside the oil tube, and when it is pulled out, the amount of oil is determined by the markings on the dipstick. If the plug pipe is lost or misplaced while replacing the oil or making repairs to the engine, it will need to be replaced to prevent oil from leaking and to keep the pressure inside the oil tube optimal. Maintaining the correct oil level in all engines is critical to keeping the engine running. If the engine runs without oil, major damage can be done to the pistons and other parts, making the engine seized and have to be replaced. It is less expensive to maintain the oil than it is to replace the engine. This plug pipe with dipstick is an OEM replacement part that is sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is a gold-colored metal part with an attached dipstick. It is sold as an individual unit that is designed to be used on log splitters manufactured by MTD, Troy-Bilt, Yard-Man, Cub Cadet, and Yard Machines.
