*The diameter of the log is not indicative - a small log can be difficult 

to split when it contains knobs or a particularly tough fiber. On the 

other hand, it may not be difficult to split logs with regular fibers 

even if its diameter exceeds the maximum diameter described in the 

specifications chart.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Connect the main leads to a standard 110V ±10% electrical 

supply which has protection devices under-voltage, over-volt-

age, over-current, as well as a ground fault circuit interrupter 

(GFCI) or a ground fault interrupter (GFI) with a maximum 

residual current of 0.03A.
