7. Fit the hook in the front edge of the
outfeed table in the cylindrical part of
the worktop and fit the other edge in the
cylinder head.

8. Screw in the two M6 screws with finger
grips in the corresponding holes in the
left and right log supports (the M6
screws must be undone to dismantle the
outfeed table).
9. Tap the 17 retaining nylon plugs (24) in
place in the front hood (11) and the end
cover (20) with a mallet. Carefully tap

legs or a stand, put it on a stable
workbench with a height of 850 mm.
USE
INTENDED USE
The log splitter is only intended for household
use. It is intended to be used in ambient
temperatures from 5 to 40°C and up to 1000
m above sea level. The relative humidity
should be less than 50% at 40°C. The log
splitter can be stored and transported at
ambient temperatures from –25 to 55°C.
VENTING
• Before starting the log splitter, undo the
vent screw (encircled) a few turns so that
air can flow in and out of the oil tank.
FIG. 7
• The flow of air through the vent hole
should be noticeable when the log splitter
is in use.
• Before moving the log splitter, check that
the vent screw is properly tightened to
avoid oil leaking out.
NOTE:
Compressed air will remain in the hydraulic
system if the vent screw is not unscrewed.
This will destroy the seals and permanently
damage the log splitter.
WARNING!
Do NOT adjust the adjusting screw for
maximum pressure. The permissible
maximum pressure is set at the factory and
the adjusting screw is sealed to ensure that
the splitting force never exceeds 49 kN (5000
kgf). If this adjustment is changed there
is a risk of serious personal injury and/or
material damage, or that the hydraulic pump
does not provide sufficient pressure.
HOW TO USE
To ensure the log splitter is safe to use the
control system needs both hands to be used
at the same time – one hand on the hydraulic
control lever and the other on the power switch.
The piston stops moving if either the lever or
the switch is released. When both the lever and
the switch are released the piston starts moving
back to the home position. The hydraulic
control lever also has a trigger lock, which
prevents it from being pressed accidentally. Pull
the trigger lock back with your forefinger before
pressing the hydraulic control lever forward.
NOTE:
Do not press the lever down for more than 5
seconds when attempting to split hard logs.
Pressing down the lever longer can cause the
hydraulic oil to overheat and damage the log
splitter. If the log will not split, turn it 90° and
