Refer to the Engine Operator’s manual packed with your log splitter for instructions on starting and stopping the engine.
1. Place the log splitter on flat, dry, solid ground.
2. Block the front and back of both wheels. See FIGURE 18.
3. Place the beam in either the horizontal or vertical position and lock into place.
WARNING! Take extra care when raising and lowering the beam as it is fairly heavy. Having a second
person assist with raising or lowering the beam is recommended. Be sure to keep hands away from any
possible pinch points.
4. To place the beam in the Vertical Position proceed as follows:
WARNING! Always use the log splitter in the vertical position when splitting heavy logs.
1) Pull the horizontal beam lock out to release the beam and pivot the beam to the vertical position. See FIGURE 19.
2) To lock the beam in the vertical position, pull out the vertical beam lock and rotate it to secure the beam.
See FIGURE 20.
5. To place the beam in the Horizontal Position proceed as follows:
1) Pull the vertical beam lock out and rotate it down. Pivot the beam to the horizontal position. See FIGURE 20.
2) The horizontal beam lock is self-locking. The spring loaded lock will snap into place when the beam is lowered into
position.
