Does anyone else think this isn't safe?

I have not seen one of these in many years :coffee2:
An apple farmer had one hooked up
to an electric motor with a belt drive mounted to a concrete barn foundation so workers could split there own wood that was cut for all of us to use, I forgot all about that thing. it had a tin roof over it and the cone splitter hung on the wall
with a lock on it, Cool tool that got the job dun back in the day.
