operate. Keep this manual in a safe place for future and regular reference and for ordering replacement parts.
2. Be familiar with all controls and their proper operation. Know how to stop the machine and disengage them quickly.
3. Never allow children under 18 years of age to operate this machine. Children 16 and over should read and
understand the instructions and safe operation practices in this manual and on the machine and be trained and
supervised by an adult.
4. Never allow adults to operate this machine without proper instruction.
5. Many accidents occur when more than one person operates the machine. No helper is allowed to assist in stacking
logs.
6. Keep bystanders, pets, and children at least 25 feet from the machine while it is in operation.
7. Never allow anyone to ride on this machine.
8. Never transport cargo on this machine.
9. Hydraulic log splitters develop high fluid pressures during operation. Fluid escaping through a pin hole opening can
penetrate your skin and cause blood poisoning, gangrene, or death. Give attention to the following instructions at all
times:
a. Do not check for leaks with your hand.
b. Do not operate machine with frayed, kinked, cracked, or damaged hoses, fittings, or tubing.
c. Stop the engine and relieve hydraulic system pressure by cycling the valve control lever from forward to reverse
several times while engine is not running; returning to neutral before repairing or adjusting fittings, hoses, tubing, or
other system components.
d. Do not adjust the pressure settings of the pump or valve.
10. Leaks can be detected by passing cardboard or wood, while wearing protective gloves and safety glasses, over the
suspected area. Look for discoloration of cardboard or wood.
11. If injured by escaping fluid, see a doctor immediately. Serious infection or reaction can develop if proper medical
treatment is not administered immediately.
12. Keep the operator zone and adjacent area clear for safe, secure footing.
13. If your machine is equipped with an internal combustion engine and is intended for use near any unimproved forest,
brush, or grass covered land, the engine exhaust should be equipped with a spark arrestor. Make sure you comply
with applicable local, state, and federal codes. Take appropriate firefighting equipment with you.
NEVER
use this log splitter for any purpose other than
splitting wood. It is designed for this use only. Any other
use can cause serious injury or death.
