Remove the screw + dipstick (14). Be careful with the gasket for the screw! 
Wipe clean the stick. 
Put it back (don´t wind it back!) 
Again, pull out: 

  If the level is between the two markings, the level is OK. 

  If the level is at the lower marking, oil has to be added. Use a funnel! 

  Check the gasket for damages.  

  Put back the screw + dipstick. Pull tight.  

 
 
Replacing the hydraulic oil (Fig. 6 + 7) 
First replacement of oil to be done after the first 50 hours operation time, then every 150 hour of operation. 

Push plate in point of departure. (1) Disconnect the equipment from mains. 
Put a suitable container (volume 4 liters) under the splitter. 
Remove the drain screw (14) and dipstick. Be careful not to damage the gasket. 
Tilt the splitter to drain the oil into the container. (Fig.6) 
Tilt the splitter (Fig. 7) back to upright position, the drain opening pointing upwards. (14) 

WARNING! Two persons are 

required to lift up and secure the equipment. 

Refill with new oil (3, 2 liter). Use a funnel. 
Wipe clean the dipstick and gasket.  
Check the gasket for damages. If required: replace it! 
Put the screw + dipstick back, pull tight. 
 

Old hydraulic oil must be treated in a way which is environmentally correct. Submit the oil to a recycling depot or 
follow the instructions in force for the local country. Oil may never be disposed of in moldering beds or any other 
water streams, sewage or earth deposits. 

 

 

 

If the equipment is not going to be used for a longer period (more than three months) it should be cleaned and lubricated 
and placed under a tarpaulin on a covered and dry location.  

 

Electrical system 
All type of works in the electrical system is only allowed by an authorized electrician.

Hydraulic system diagram 

 
 

AC Motor 250V/50Hz 

Main voltage 230V/50Hz – power supply socket and extension cables must be of 3-wire type: phase, neutral and 
protection earth. 
 

Extension cables must have a lead area of 2, 5 mm

²

. The wall socket should be safeguarded for 16A at the most. 

 
ADVICE 

Extension cables with a length of 10 meters or more, give rise to voltage losses. As a result, the motor will not deliver max 
power. The performance of the equipment is limited. Always unfold all cables completely to not create heat and possible 
short circuit in the rolled-up cable. 
 

TROUBLE SHOOTING 

Before all trouble shooting: 

  Switch off the equipment 

  Pull the mains plug 

 
 

Motor doesn´t run or 
switch off

 

 

RCBO trips 

Call authorized electrician 

Log doesn´t split up

 

The log incorrectly placed 

 
Adjust the location of the log (see 

OPERATION

The dimension of the log exceeds 
the capacity of the motor 

Use smaller logs
