that could to lead to personal injury, or harm the splitter or environment.

3 CONNECTING THE SPLITTER TO A TRACTOR
The operator must read and understand all the operation, maintenance, and safety
instructions in this manual before operating the log splitter.
A tractor-powered log splitter must be connected to a tractor at all times during use!
3.1 Cardan shaft
When connecting and using the cardan shaft, always
follow all the instructions related to safe use and
maintenance as provided by the cardan shaft
manufacturer.
Never connect an unprotected shaft to the log splitter!
The required power of the log splitter is
approx. 15 kW, so that the cardan shaft
should generate power of at least twice
that amount.
Check that the shaft is properly locked into
the splined shaft of the angle transmission!
Attach the chain that prevents the guard from rotating to the base of the angle transmission
(Figure 310).
