Safety instructions

Always pay full attention to the movement of the log pusher

Do not remove jammed logs with your hands

General safety instructions

Caution! Read all instructions. The non-observation of the instructions
mentioned below may cause an electric shock, fire and/or severe injuries. The
term “electric tool” mentioned below refers to mains-operated electric tools
(with power cord) and to rechargeable electric tools (without power cord).
Keep these instructions for use in a safe place.

1)

Workplace

(a)

Keep your workplace clean and tidy. Untidy and badly illuminated work
areas may lead to accidents.

(b)

Do not operate this machine in potentially explosive environments
containing combustible liquids, gases or dusts. Electric tools send out
sparks which may ignite dust or vapours.

(c)

Keep children and other persons away from the electric tool during use.
When distracted, you may lose control over the machine.

2)

Electric safety

(a)

The plug of the machine has to be suitable for the socket. The
connector may not be modified in any way. Do not use an adapter plug
together with earthed devices. Unchanged connectors and fitting
sockets reduce the risk of an electric shock.

(b)

Avoid body contact to earthed surfaces, such as pipes, radiator, stoves
and refrigerators. There is a higher risk of an electric shock, if your body
is earthed.

(c)

Keep the machine clear of rain or humidity. The penetration of water
into an electrical device increases the risk of an electric shock.

(d)

Do not use the cable for unintended purposes, to carry or suspend the
machine or to pull the connector out of the socket. Keep the cable clear
of heat, oil, sharp edges or any moving parts. Damaged or entangled
cables increase the risk of an electric shock.

(e)

When using an electric tool in the open, use an extension cable only
which has been approved for outdoor use. The use of an extension
cable suitable for use in the open will reduce the risk of an electric

Periodically check oil level to ensure it is between the 2 grooves
around the dipstick.

Sharpening the wedge

After using the log splitter for some time, sharpen the wedge of the log splitter
using a fine-toothed file and smooth any burrs of crushed area along the cutting
edge.

Cleaning

Regularly clean the machine housing with a soft cloth, preferably after each use.
Keep the ventilation slots free from dust and dirt.

Storage and transportation

Keep the machine in a well-ventilated dry room. It can be stored or transported
under ambient temperatures between -25ºC and 55ºC. Place the splitter horizon-
tal on a flat and stable surface during transportation. The wheels of the log split-
ter are suitable for minor moving only.

Faults

Should a fault occur, please contact the address on the warranty card. On the
back page of this manual you find an exploded view showing the parts that
can be ordered. 

Environment

In order to prevent the machine from damage during transport, it is delivered
in a sturdy packaging. Most of the packaging materials can be recycled. Take
these materials to the appropriate recycling locations.
