Always set logs firmly on the log retaining plates and work table.
Make sure logs will not twist, rock or slip while being split.
Do not force the blade by splitting the log on the upper part.
This will break the blade or damage the machine.
Break log in the direction of its growing grain.
Do not place log across the log splitter for splitting.
It may be dangerous and may seriously damage the machine.
Do not attempt to split two pieces of logs at the same time.
One of them may fly up and hit you.
Freeing a jammed log
Release both controls. After the log pusher moves back and
completely stops at its starting position, insert a wedge wood
under the jammed log. Start the log splitter to push the wedge
wood to go completely under the jammed one. Repeat above
procedure with sharper slope wedge woods until the log is
com-pletely freed.
Do not try to knock the jammed log off. Knocking about will
damages the machine or may launch the log and cause accident.
MAINTENANCE
Replacing hydraulic oil
Replace the Hydraulic oil in the log splitter after every 150 hours of use. Take following steps to
replace it:
1. Make sure all moving parts stops and the log splitter is unplugged.
2. Unscrew Oil Drain Bolt with Dipstick to remove it.
3. Turn the log splitter on the Support Leg side over a 4 liters capacity container to drain the hydraulic
oil off.
4. Turn the log splitter on the motor side.
5. Refill fresh hydraulic oil at the volume as per the hydraulic oil capacity of a particular model indicat-
ed in above specifications table.
6. Clean the surface of Dipstick on the Oil Drain Bolt and put it back into the oil tank while keep the log
splitter vertically.
7. Make sure the level of the refilled oil is just between 2 grooves around the Dipstick.
8. Clean the Oil Drain Bolt before thread them back. Make sure they are tightened to avoid leakage
before place the log splitter horizontally.
