REPLACING HYDRAULIC OIL FOR MODEL KS 27THG 65/55
Replace the hydraulic oil in the log splitter after every 150 hours of use. Take the following steps to replace
the oil:
1. Make sure all moving parts are stopped and the log splitter is unplugged.
2. Unscrew the oil drain bolt.
3. Place a drip tray under it to drain spent oil.
4. Fill with fresh hydraulic oil. As stated in the Specifications Table on page 2 the correct oil capacity is 20 L.
5. Clean the surface of the dipstick, which is attached to the oil drain bolt, with a clean lint free cloth and
put back into the tank to check the new level. Make sure the level of the refilled oil is just between the two
grooves around the dipstick.
6. Clean the oil drain bolt before screwing it back. Make sure it is tightened to avoid leakage before placing
the log splitter horizontally.
