PROTECTING CHILDREN.
Keep children
away from the log splitter at all times! It is
not a toy. Never allow any child to climb
onto the log splitter.
2. ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
The log
splitter engine produces carbon monoxide,
which is a poisonous gas. Make sure the
work area is adequately ventilated. Never
operate this machine indoors or in any type
of enclosed area including a carport.
3. HOT ENGINE.
Motor parts get hot
during operation. Allow to cool before
placing hands near motor, adding fuel, or
performing any service or maintenance.
4. FUEL SPILLS.
Fuel exposed to hot engine
components may ignite. Thoroughly clean
all fuel spills before starting the engine.
5. FLUID INJECTION.
Fluid pressures
developed from this machine are up
to 3000 PSI, which are high enough
to penetrate your skin and enter your
bloodstream. Hydraulic fluid injected into
your bloodstream is a medical emergency.
If not treated immediately, this blood
poisoning could result in an aggressive
infection, amputation, or death. Keep
body parts away from any high pressure
hydraulic leak.
6. TROUBLESHOOTING.
Some high pres-
sure streams can be almost invisible to the
naked eye. If you suspect a hydraulic leak,
DO NOT use your hand or fingers to locate
it. Instead keep your skin at least 12" away
from potential leaking areas and move a
strip of cardboard to the areas where the
leak may exist and watch to see if hydrau-
lic oil is sprayed onto the cardboard.
Additional Safety Instructions for Hydraulic
Log Splitters
7. HYDRAULIC PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE.
Adjusting the pressure limit screw may lead
to a hydraulic explosion and seriously injure
the operator and bystanders. The pressure
relief valve is factory set and should not be
adjusted unless by a professional hydraulic
technician.
8. TOWING.
This log splitter is not designed
to be towed on logging roads, forest ser-
vice roads, public roads, or highways. This
machine is designed for job site towing only
where maximum speed will not exceed 12
MPH.
9. CORRECT USAGE.
Never split wood across
the grain or use the log splitter to split con-
crete blocks, rocks, or to bend metal.
10. WORKPIECE SELECTION.
Logs with exten-
sive knotting may be difficult or impossible
to split. Making repeated attempts to split
an unsuitable log will increase wear on the
pressure relief valve, hydraulic lines, and
increase the risk of operator injury.
11. CORRECT USAGE.
Never attempt to split
more than one log at a time. Doing so may
cause logs to fly off the splitter with great
force, resulting in serious injury or death.

SUPPORTING LOGS BY HAND.
Never use
any part of your body to guide or steady a
log when the ram is moving. Failure to follow
this instruction can result in serious personal
injury, including loss of limbs.
13. MACHINE LOCATION.
Never leave the split-
ter unattended and running, always block the
wheels to prevent rolling, and store the unit in
a locked location.
