Troubleshooting
Problem Possible cause Suitable measure
Unsuccessfull splitting. The log is wrongly placed. Turn around or rotate the log.
The hardness or diameter of the log
is too great. Try decreasing the diameter or length
before splitting.
The splitter is blunt or damaged. Sharpen the splitter (see Maintenance ).
Oil leakage. Find the leakage and let a qualified
technician repair it. Top up the oil.
Pressure regulator wrongly adjusted. Let a qualified technician with access to
testing equipment repair it.
The pressure plate
moves abruptly with
a jarring sound and
strong vibrations. Oil pressure too low - air in
the system. Check the level and if required top
up the oil or repair leakage.
Oil leakage around
the piston or other
component. Air pockets in the hydraulic system
during operation. Loosen the bleeding screw 3–4 revolutions
before starting operation.
The air screw has not been tightened
before transport. Tighten the bleeding screw before transport.
The oil plug is not tightened sufficiently. Tighten the oil plug.
The hydraulic valve and/or packing
