BEFORE USE
BLEEDING THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
Before operating the log buster, the
Bleed Screw should be loosened by
2-3 turns until air can go in and out of
the oil tank smoothly.
• Air flow through the Bleed
Screw hole should be
detectable when the log
buster is in operation.
Before moving the log buster, make
sure the Bleed Screw is tightened to
avoid oil leaking from this point.
POSITIONING THE LOGS
• Always place the logs on the log retaining plates.
• Make sure the logs do not twist, rock or slip while being split.
• Do not force the log buster by
splitting the log on the upper
part of the wedge. This will
break the wedge or damage
the machine.
• Break log in the direction of its
grain.
• Do not place the log across the
log buster for splitting. It may be
dangerous and may seriously
damage the machine.
• Do not attempt to split 2 logs at the same time. One of them may fly
up and hit you.
WARNING: FAILURE TO DO THIS WILL CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE
LOG BUSTER.
