The printing of the type designation on the connec
-
tion cable is mandatory.
For single-phase AC motors, we recommend a fuse
rating of 16A (C) or 16A (K) for machines with a high
starting current (starting from 3000 watts)!
AC motor 230 V/ 50 Hz
Mains voltage 230 Volt / 50 Hz.
The mains connection and the extension cable have
to be three-core cables = P + N + SL. - (1/N/PE).
Extension cables must have a minimum cross-section
of 1.5 mm².
Mains fuse protection is 16 A maximum.
12. Cleaning
Attention!
Pull out the power plug before carrying out any clean
-
ing work on the equipment.
We recommend that you clean the equipment imme
-
diately after you use it.
Clean the equipment regularly with a damp cloth and
some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or sol
-
vents; these may be aggressive to the plastic parts in
the equipment. Ensure that no water can get into the
interior of the equipment.
13. Transport
The log splitter is equipped with two wheels for easy
transport.
The machine can be transported on the wheels at an
angle. Use the transport handle, lift and pull or push.
(Fig. 14)
14. Storage
Store the device and its accessories in a dark, dry and
frost-proof place that is inaccessible to children. The
optimum storage temperature is between 5 and 30˚C.
Cover the electrical tool in order to protect it from
dust and moisture.
Store the operating manual with the electrical tool.
15. Maintenance
Attention!
Pull out the power plug before carrying out any main
-
tenance work on the equipment.
We recommend:
• The splitting wedge is a wearing part that needs to
be sharpened or replaced after wear.
• The combined gripping and controlling device must
remain smooth running. Lubricate with a few drops
of oil when necessary.
10.5 Wrongly placed log (Fig. 11)
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
logs on the upper part. This will break the blade or
damage the machine.
Do not attempt to split 2 pieces of logs at the same
time. One of them may fly up and hit you.
10.6 Jammed log (Fig. 12 + 13)
Do not try to knock the jammed log off. Knocking
about will damage the machine or may launch the log
and cause accident.
1. Release both controls.
2. After the log pusher moves back and completely
stops at its starting position, insert a wedge wood
under the jammed log (see figure 13).
3. Start the log splitter to push the wedge wood un
-
der the jammed one.
4. Repeat above procedure with sharper slope
wedge woods until the log is completely freed.
11. Electrical connection
The electrical motor installed is connected and ready
for operation. The connection complies with the ap
-
plicable VDE and DIN provisions.
The customer‘s mains connection as well as the ex-
tension cable used must also comply with these reg
-
ulations.
Damaged electrical connection cable
The insulation on electrical connection cables is of
-
ten damaged.
This may have the following causes:
• Passage points, where connection cables are
passed through windows or doors.
• Kinks where the connection cable has been im
-
properly fastened or routed.
• Places where the connection cables have been cut
due to being driven over.
• Insulation damage due to being ripped out of the
wall outlet.
• Cracks due to the insulation ageing.
Such damaged electrical connection cables must not
be used and are life-threatening due to the insula-
tion damage.
Check the electrical connection cables for damage
regularly. Make sure that the connection cable does
not hang on the power network during the inspection.
Electrical connection cables must comply with the
applicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use con
-
nection cables with the marking „H07RN“.
