Wood clamping before splitting:
3.7 Operation
Firstly place the log on the working table and lean it against the log fixing device;
Secondly press down the two operation handles to let the wedge run towards the log with
wedge pressing on the top of the log.
DO NOT RELEASE THE CONTROL LEVERS UNTIL THE CYCLE IS COMPLETELY
OVER AND THE LOG IS SPLIT.
Should any emergency arise and stopping be required, simply set the control levers free
from your grip. When doing this, the ram will immediately travel all the way back up.
As soon as the log is completely split, release both control levers and let the ram travel
back to start position and be ready for a new cycle.
Do not attempt to catch the split wood or remove wood sticks from the table by hand until
the cylinder rod stops at its maximum travel position.
Clear the table and remove chips and wood debris from the machine before starting a new
cycle.
When loading chunks, make sure that logs sits central and firmly with its saw end on the
table. Never place your hands on top of the log when loading the log on the splitter.
Do not split wood chunks with lots of branches, first clean it and remove all branches
DANGER, crooked trunk pieces with green/dry branches may burst under wedge pressure!
Make sure to shut the motor off before leaving the area at work end.
3.8 Clearing procedure
Depending on the type or wood being split, along may not always break into two pieces and
fall to the ground, If a log sticks to the wedge, place the valve handle in the neutral
position(stop the wedge from traveling),switch the splitter off and carefully remove or
hammer the log off the wedge.
Allowing the log to remain attached to the wedge when it is fully retracted could lead to
possible injury and/or damage to the log splitter.
3.9 Pressure Limiting
Max pressure was set on the valve before log splitter is packed and leaves the factory. The
setting was done by qualified person with professional tools. Unauthorized
resetting will cause possible problems for hydraulic system or result in damage to the
machine
