Use
Connect the Log Splitter to the power supply.
Never pass the power cable over the log pusher, close to the wedge or anywhere where it may be
damaged or severed.
Position the log on the beam as shown in fig. 6, page 4. The supporting guides (9 in fig. 1, page 3)
help to keep the log at the centre of the wedge.
If the log tends to wobble, it must be repositioned turning it so that is remains firmly on the beam.
With your right hand,
THOROUGHLY
press the starter button of the electric motor (1), and with
your left hand press the control lever (2) all the way down as shown in fig. 6 on page 4. The log
pusher will go into action and split the log.
The control lever enables you to manage the work speed and power to adapt to the type of wood
to be split in the best way possible. If the wood is soft, press the lever about halfway down: the
log pusher is activated faster but works with reduced thrust. If the wood is particularly hard or
seasoned, press the lever all the way down: the log pusher is slower but has the maximum power,
with greater possibility to break hard wood.
The speed can be varied during the operation by simply raìsing or lowering the lever.
Warning: the button must be pressed thorougly in order to avoid burning of the inside
contacts.
Repeat the operation with the pieces obtained so as to split the log into several parts.
Never force the Log Splitter for more than a few seconds keeping the cylinder under pressure ¡n
the attempt to split excessively hard wood. Under pressure, the oil will overheat and the machine
could be damaged. It is thus better to stop and rotate the log by 90
o
to see whether it can be split
in a different position. In any case, if you are not able to split the log, this means that its hardness
exceeds the capacity of the machine and so that log should be discarded so as not to damage the
Log Splitter.
On completing the work, pull the plug. Never yank the plug using the cable. Grasp the body of the
plug and pull it firmly.
When not in use, store the machine where it is protected from atmospheric agents.
To move the machine for short distances use the appropriate handle (no. 10, fig. 1, page 3).
When transporting (e.g. loaded on motor vehicles), ensure that all parts of the machine have
cooled down completely, and that the bleeder screw is screwed tight, and the machine is positioned
horizontally.
