Lifting and moving the machine
When moving the machine, make
sure that the moving and lifting
capacity of your tractor or forklift is
sufficient for the machine’s weight.
Only lift the splitter by the indicated
lifting points or with the lifting
equipment of the tractor.
Figure 1. Lifting points
When connecting the machine to the tractor's lifting equipment, the tractor cabin must be free of people in
order to prevent any accidental contact with the controls. Check all connecting devices of the tractor and
the log splitter before connecting them. Never use faulty equipment. The pins that are used to connect the
pushbars and drawbars to the log splitter must be of the correct size, and the appropriate locking pins must
be used to secure them.
The splitter must be placed in the transport position if it is to be moved more than 5 metres. Exercise
extreme caution when moving the machine in the operating position. Always lower the machine to the
ground when you stop.
Note! Incorrect lifting may cause a hazardous situation or damage the machine.

Main components of the machine
The Hakki Pilke 38 Easy is a log splitter with fully hydraulic controls. In other words, all of the machine's
functions are controlled hydraulically with operating levers on the machine's control panel. The guard of the
cutting and splitting section is interlocked to the machine's operation: opening the guard stops all functions.
