Height adjustment of the splitting blade
The splitting blade can be controlled mechanically by moving control lever F (Figure 11 and 20) up or down. The
splitting blade can be lifted by moving lever F to the left and vice versa. Logs should always be as centred as pos-
sible when passing the blade in order to keep the size of the firewood consistent.

(The splitting blade is detachable on the left and locked on the right)
The blade can be driven to the lowest position in one go by raising the blade and clearing the space under the
blade of firewood (Figure 20, right). The machine guard must be opened or the machine must be disconnected
from its power source for the duration of cleaning or blade replacement so that the splitting and sawing functions
are inoperable.

1.
Remove the firewood under the splitting blade and turn blade lock G to the left and pull it outwards to ena-

2.

3.
Open the guard and lift the splitting blade out of its slot.
