WARNING! Connecting to mains supply
Do not connect to the mains before all assembly is done. The motor is dimensioned for the voltage and frequency as
stated in the Technical Specifications. Normally the equipment can handle the tasks as far as the voltage doesn´t deviate
more than +/- 10% from this value.
Operating the equipment outside these limits may cause overheating or short circuit in the motor. Heavy load calls for a
voltage which doesn´t fall below this stated value. Only connect the equipment to a mains supply which fulfills the
following conditions:
•
Connect over a RCBO (Residual Current Breaker with Overload) with max 30 mA error current.
•
The wall socket shall be of the prescribed type, with safety lead (earth connection) and approved in installation.
•
Locate the power cables so they will not become damaged during operation.
•
Protect the cable for heat, aggressive liquids and sharp edges.
•
Only use extension cables with sufficient area (2, 5 mm
²
).
•
Never pull out the plug by pulling the cable, just pull the plug.
Connecting/disconnecting
Connecting
Push the green switch (7). The motor is running as long as the switch is pushed.
Disconnecting
Release the switch (7).
Never use equipment where this security switch is not operating. Faulty parts shall without delay be replaced or
repaired by an authorized workshop.
Hydraulics
The hydraulic system is a closed circuit system with oil tank, oil pump and a pressure relief valve. These components may
in no way be modified or tampered with.
Connections and junctions should with regular intervals be checked for leakage. If needed: pull tight!
Keep the equipment and the working site clean from oil and grease.
Risk for slipping and fire!
Never use the equipment when there is a risk for oil leakage.
Before every occasion of use, check that the oil level in the container is sufficient (see Attendance and maintenance)
Volume of oil: 3, 5 liter
OPERATION
Advice:
Carefully read the safety instructions.
(See Safety Instructions)
PLEASE NOTE! Before taking into operation – ensure airflow in the hydraulics!
Before taking into operation, it is outmost important that the air bleed screw (13) is loosened some turns to ensure air
circulation in the oil container. After finishing the work, pull the screw tight again. If the screw remains closed during work,
the hydraulics builds up a pressure which might harm the equipment.
Before every transportation, this screw (13) has to be pulled tight to prevent oil leakage.
Only use wood logs which are cut straight at both ends.
Recommended sizes for suitable wood logs
HOS 5A
Capacity (L) max 520 mm
Capacity (Ø) max 50 – 250 mm
ADVICE
The diameter for the logs is just a recommendation. The real capacity depends on the type of wood, the length, type of
fibers and number of branches.
Operation
TWO-HAND OPERATION
The two-hand operation can only protect two hands. Never by-pass any safety devices in the attempt to speed up the
working process! Never work two persons at the same time at the splitter.
