If you would just tee a pressure gage in the IN port of the log splitter valve, you should be able to trouble shoot the system.

Is your log splitter relief activated?

Do you hear any screeching?

Thats a flow control fitting. You use it if a cylinder is running too fast and you need to slow it down. Nice you found the problem.
