Jobsite
Considerations
Work Location
Always use the log splitter in a well-lit area and
on a flat, stable work surface. Operating your log
splitter is easiest when the controls are waist high.
At minimum, your work area must safely support
the combined weight of the log splitter and the
heaviest log you intend to split.
Work Clearances
Allow enough room on all sides to move logs to
and from the log splitter. Refer to the
Machine
Data Sheet on Page 5 for the dimensions of your
log splitter.
Children and visitors may
be seriously injured if
unsupervised around this
machine. Lock entrances to
storage location and unplug
power connection to prevent
unsupervised use.
To move and lift log splitter:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Close air bleed screw (see Figure 4) by turn-
ing it clockwise until it stops. This prevents
hydraulic fluid from leaking out during move.
Lifting & Moving
The wheels on the Model T28192 make it
possible for one person to move the log splitter
short distances; however, we suggest that you get
assistance whenever lifting it.
Assembly
The Model T28192 is shipped from the
factory fully assembled. Before running the
log splitter, you MUST fill the hydraulic fluid
tank to the required level with hydraulic fluid
(refer to
Checking/Adding Hydraulic Fluid on
Page 21). Remove the shipping tag from the
hydraulic control lever after adding hydraulic fluid.
Damage caused by running this machine
without hydraulic fluid will not be covered
under warranty.
3. To move log splitter, raise frontend of machine
by transport handle (see
Figure 4) and pull
log splitter to new location.
4. To lift log splitter, get an assistant to help
you. Use transport handle (see
Figure 4) and
support rearend of machine. DO NOT lift log
splitter by hydraulic control lever.
