This chapter describes routine maintenance, i.e. operations carried out by the operator, on the
Turbo 7 Log Splitter to keep it in perfect working order and therefore reliable for continuous, long-
term use.
All routine maintenance operations must be carried out with the machine off and in the case of log
splitters with electric motor with the power cable disconnected.
Any other maintenance operation not specifically outlined in this manual must be carried out by
authorised personnel as a hazardous situation may arise for which the operator is not prepared.
Where extraordinary maintenance or part replacement operations are not carried out by authorised
personnel, the guarantee shall be immediately null and void and the supplier shall be relieved of any
responsibility for injury to persons or animals or damage.
How to change the hydraulic oil
The spent oil must be replaced with new oil of the type indicated on page 8 every 400 hours of
operation. To change the oil, proceed as follows (see also diagram on page 5).
Make sure that the log pusher of the machine is fully retracted.
Unscrew the cap shown in fig. 7/A on page 5 and remove it completely.
Position a container under the Log Splitter that can hold 8 litres of oil; then tilt the machine to empty
the oil (fig. 7/B, page 5).
Tilt the machine in the other direction (fig. 7/C, page 5) and pour in 6 litres of oil of one of the types
indicated on page 8.
Clean the dipstick and insert it (fig. 7/D, page 5) to check that the oil level is between the two
notches on the stem.
Clean the cap and washer thoroughly and re-tighten completely but carefully so as not to break the
threading of the cap.
WARNING: NEVER MIX OIL WITH GENERAL WASTE! USED OIL MUST BE
DISPOSED OF ACCORDING TO CURRENT REGULATIONS IN THE COUNTRY
WHERE THE MACHINE IS USED.
