Connection
The Hydrasplitter is designed to mount to the three point linkage of a
tractor.
To install the machine onto your tractor:
1) Place the splitter on a firm and stable platform at a minimum
of 300mm high.
2) Remove the lynch pins from the lower two link pins and
remove the top link pin and set aside.
3) Reverse tractor to the splitter and mount the lower link arms to
the lower link pins using bushes if need be.
4) Connect the top link to the top link pin in the splitter, ensuring
all three lynch pins are returned and locked in place.
5) Adjust the top link pin to make the splitter level.
6) Connect the two hoses to the tractor hydraulics.
(For optimum
performance connect return line from valve to a free dump port returning
oil directly to transmission
)
NOTE
: A pressure and return circuit is necessary as well as a detent on the
hydraulic remote control lever on the tractor
Operation
Ensure the tractor hand brake is engaged
You can now start your splitting operation.
1) Start the tractor and engage the hydraulic control to give you
oil flow to the splitter.
2) Place wood rings close to the anvil, remove all hands from
the splitting area and move the lever to the left (TPL), or
down (VTL).
3) When the wood has split, move the lever to the hard right
(TPL), or fully up (VTL), which will automatically return the
ram and reset the lever to the neutral position.
On completion of splitting the ram must be fully retracted so that
the Hydrasplitter can be re-connected with the ram in this position.
