Check the machine for possible damage
−
Before continuing to use the machine, the protective
devices must be inspected to ensure that they work
perfectly and with their intended function
−
Check whether the movable parts function perfectly
and do not stick or whether the parts are damaged.
All parts must be correctly installed and fulfil all
conditions to ensure perfect operation of the machine.
−
Damaged guards and parts must be properly
repaired or exchanged by a recognized, specialist
workshop; insofar as nothing else is stated in the
instructions for use.
−
Damaged or illegible safety warning labels should
be replaced immediately.
Electrical safety
Electrical connections must conform to IEC 60245 (H
07 RN-F) with a cable cross-section of at least
⇒
230 V ~
3 x 1.5 mm² for a maximum cable length of up to 10 m
⇒
400 V 3~
5 x 1.5 mm² for a maximum cable length of up to 10 m
Never use the machine with a power supply cable of over
10 m in length. Longer power supply cables will cause a
drop in voltage. The motor will not be able to provide its
maximum performance and the operation of the machine
will be impaired.
Plugs and coupler outlets on connection cables must be
made of rubber, plasticised PVC or other thermoplastic
material of same mechanical stability or be covered with
this material.
The connector of the connection cable must be splash-
proof.
When running the connection line observe that it does
not interfere, is not squeezed, bended and the plug
connection does not get wet.
Wind off completely the cable when using a cable drum.
Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is not
meant. Protect the cable against heat, oil and sharp
edges. Do not use the cable to pull the plug from the
socket.
Regularly check the extension cables and replace them
if they are damaged.
Do not use any defective connection cables.
When working outdoors, only use extension cables
especially approved and appropriately labelled for
outdoor use.
Do not set up any provisional electrical connections.
Never bypass protective devices or deactivate them.
The electrical connection or repairs to electrical parts
of the machine must be carried out by a certified
electrician or one of our customer service points. Local
regulations – especially regarding protective measures
– must be observed.
Repairs to other parts of the machine must be carried
out by the manufacturer or one of his customer service
points.
Use only original spare parts. Accidents can arise for
the user through the use of other spare parts. The
manufacturer is not liable for any damage or injury
resulting from such action.

Move the splitting blade right down every time before
the machine is transported.
To transport the
machine, grasp the
handle and tilt the
log splitter slightly
towards you. The
log splitter can be
easily transported
in this position.
Make sure that the
oil tank cap is
securely tightened
to prevent oil from
leaking during
transport.

Check that the machine is completely and correctly
assembled.
Before using the log splitter, make sure each time that
−
there are no faulty connections (tears, cuts, etc.)
Do not use defective power supply cables.
−
there are no damages at the machine
−
all screws are tight
−
check the hydraulic system for any possible leaks
−
the oil level
−
Venting: Vent the hydraulic system before putting the
log splitter into operation.
¾
Unscrew venting screw by several turns so that air
may escape from the oil tank.
¾
Leave the screw open during operation.
¾
Close the venting screw before moving the log splitter,
as otherwise oil will leak at this point.
