Shipping List

The following chart contains the list of parts that should be shipped as part of the
BHH2003 or BHH3003 Log Splitter.

Refueling

ONLY refuel the log splitter outdoors in a clear area void of gas fumes or spilled
gasoline.

ALWAYS use an approved fuel container to carry gasoline.

ALWAYS replace the log splitter gas cap and the fuel container cap securely.

If gasoline is spilled, move the machine away from the area of the spill and
avoid creating any source of ignition until the spilled gasoline has completely
evaporated.

Take a class B fire extinguisher with you when operating the log splitter in dry
areas as a precautionary measure against possible flying sparks.

Always store gasoline in an approved, tightly sealed container.  Store the con-
tainer in a cool, dry place.  Do not store the container in a house or near any
heating appliance.

Do not smoke or have open flames when refueling the engine. 
Do not spill fuel.  If fuel should spill, quickly wipe up the spill and allow
the excess to evaporate before continuing.  Make sure gasoline
soaked rags are properly disposed of.

DO NOT fill the gas tank while the engine is hot or running.  Allow time for the
engine to cool down before refueling.

Preventing Fires

NEVER operate the log splitter near a flame or spark.  Oil and gasoline are
flammable and can explode.

NEVER smoke while operating or refueling the log splitter.  Gasoline, oil, and
even gas fumes can explode.

Important Notice

The log splitter is equipped with an internal combustion engine and should not
be used on or near any unimproved forest-covered, brush-covered, or grass-
covered land unless the engine’s exhaust system is equipped with a spark
arrester meeting local or state laws (if any).  If a spark arrester is used, it
should be maintained in effective working order by the owner and/or operator.
