ELECTRICAL INFORMATION 

WARNING: TO AVOID ELECTRICAL HAZARDS, FIRE HAZARDS, OR 
DAMAGE TO THE LOG SPLITTER, USE PROPER CIRUIT PROTECTION.  
THIS LOG SPLITTER IS WIRED AT THE FACTORY FOR 120V AC OPERATION. 
CONNECT TO A 120V AC, 20 A CIRCUIT OUTLET. TO AVOID SHOCK OR 
FIRE WHEN THE POWER CORD IS WORN, CUT OR DAMAGED IN ANY 
WAY, REPLACE IT IMMEDIATELY.

This log splitter has a 3-prong plug that is intended for use on a circuit that has a 
receptacle like the one illustrated in Fig. A.  Do not modify the power cord plug.
If it does not match the electrical outlet, have the proper outlet installed by 
a qualified electrician.

APPLICATION CONDITIONS

This log splitter is a home use model. It is designed for operating under ambient temperatures between 5˚ C - 40˚ C (41˚ F and 104˚ F) and 
for installation at altitudes no more than 1,000 metres (3,281 feet) above M.S.L.  The surrounding humidity should be less than 50% at 40˚ 
C (104˚ F). It can be stored or transported under ambient temperatures between 10.5˚ C - 55˚ C (13˚ F and 131˚ F).

* The diameter of the log is indicative – a small log can be difficult to split when it has knobs or a particularly tough fiber. On the other hand, 

it may not be difficult to split logs with regular fibers even if its diameter exceeds the max figure indicated above. 

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Connect the main leads to a standard 230V+10% (50Hz+1Hz) electrical supply which has protection devices of under-voltage, over-volt-

age, over-current as well as a residual current device (RCD) with a maximum residual current rated at 0.03A. 

1. 3-Prong plug

2. Receptacle with grounding conductor
