Engine Controls

The beam locks are used to secure the beam in either the horizontal
position or the vertical position. The vertical beam lock is located next
to the engine. The horizontal beam lock is located on the beam support
latch bracket.

Use the control handle to move the log splitter wedge forward and
backward along the beam. It has three positions; FORWARD, NEUTRAL
and REVERSE. See the Operation section for instructions.
Vented Dipstick

Log Dislodger
The log dislodger is designed to remove any partially split wood from
the wedge while it is retracting. This may occur while splitting large
diameter wood or freshly cut wood.
Log Tray

Hitch Coupling
Use the hitch coupling to attach the log splitter to a towing vehicle for
transportation.
Jack Stand
The jack stand supports the log splitter while in the operating position.
