Transport
Transport with a fork lift truck:
For shipment, the machine is fixed to a pallet by steel
bandings. It is protected by a plastic sheet cover.
At least two persons are required to lift it off the pallet.
Tilt it carefully to the side with the wheels and let it glide
off the pallet.
Attention: The log splitter has a high centre of gravity -
danger of tipping over!
Manual transport
To transport the log splitter, tilt it slightly, until the ma-
chine stands on its wheels and can be moved.
Transport with a crane, fig. 2
Use the 2 holes A in the upper section of the machine for
the transport on a crane-hook.
Never lift the machine at the
splitting knife!
