Be careful not to spill fuel when filling the engine. If fuel should spill,
quickly wipe off and allow the excess fuel to evaporate before continu-
ing. Fuel and fuel vapors are highly flammable and can cause personal
injury or even death when ignited.
6. Fill the engine’s fuel tank with fresh, clean, lead-free automotive gasoline.
7. Attach the spark plug wire and start the engine per the manufacturer’s instructions.
8. With the engine running, cycle the log splitter several times.
9. Push the valve control handle to the retract position and retract the cylinder piston.
The cylinder valve will automatically stop the cylinder from retracting when it reaches
the end of its stroke.
10. Check the fluid level in the hydraulic tank and add oil as needed. Replace and tight-
en the fill cap.
11. Your log splitter is now ready to use.

retract position. The splitting wedge will

retracts. When the cylinder is fully retract-
ed, the control valve will automatically shift
to a neutral position.
h. DO NOT load another log or remove split
pieces until the wedge has completely
stopped and the control handle automati-
cally returns to the neutral position.
