10. Initial operation
If you still want to work without a base frame, then
place the splitter on a stable, level and flat workbench
so that the control button sits at a height of 72 - 85
cm. If the machine should slip during splitting work,
fasten it to the table with two screws (M8 x X = thick-
ness of the table). To do so, use the two holes on the
foot.
Make sure the machine is completely and expertly
assembled. Check before every use:
•
the connection cables for any defective spots
(cracks, cuts etc.).
•
the machine for any possible damage.
•
the firm seat of all bolts.
•
the hydraulic system for leakage.
• the oil level and
•
the safety devices
10.1 Checking the oil level (Fig. 10)
The hydraulic unit is a closed system with oil tank, oil
pump and control valve. Check the oil level regularly
before every use. Too low an oil level can damage
the oil pump. The correct oil level is approx. 10 to 20
mm below the oil tank surface.
If the oil level is at the lower notch, then the oil level is
at a minimum. Should this be the case, oil must be im
-
mediately added. The upper notch indicates the max-
imum oil level. The machine must be on level ground.
Screw in the oil dipstick fully, to measure the oil level.
10.2 Ventilation screw
Before operating your
machine, the bleed screw
should be loosened by some rotations until air can go
in and out of the oil tank smoothly. Failed to loosen the
bleed screw will keep the sealed air in hydraulic sys-
tem being compressed after being decompressed.
Such continuous compression/decompression will
blow out the seals of the hydraulic system and cause
permanent damage to your
machine.
Before moving your
machine, make sure the bleed
screw is tightened to avoid oil leaking from this point.
10.3 Splitting logs
Only split logs that have been sawn off straight. To do
this, proceed as follows:
1. Place the log plain onto the work table.
2. Your machine
is equipped with Two-hands Con-
trol System that requires to be operated by both
hands of the user – left hand controls the control
lever (1) while right hand controls the push button
switch (6).
3.
Simultaneously push button switch (6) to start the
splitting action.
The log splitter will freeze upon absence of either
hand.

Be
fore starting the
equipment
At least two people are required to install the de
-
vice.
9.1 Fitting the machine foot (fig. 2)
•
Mount the machine foot (5) using two hexagon
screws (b) and washers on the holes provided.
9.2 Fitting the handle (fig. 2)
•
Mount the handle (4) using two Allen screws (b),
two washers and two thin nuts on the holes provid
-
ed on the machine foot.
9.3 Fitting the wheels (fig. 3)
•
Fit the wheels (7) on the axles.
•
Secure the wheels (7) using the provided locking
rings (c).
•
Fit the wheel caps (d) on the wheels.
9.4 Installing the protective guard (Fig. 4 - 8)
•
Mount the lower cover (B) to the right side of the
machine using four Allen screws (e). (fig. 4)
•
Mount the lower cover (C) to the left side of the ma-
chine using three Allen screws (e) (fig. 4)
•
Fit the side cover (D) into the lower cover (B) and
secure it with five Allen screws (e) and five hexagon
nuts (g). (fig. 5)
•
Fit the side cover (F) into the lower cover (C) and
secure it with three Allen screws (e) and three hex-
agon nuts (g). (fig. 5)
•
Connect the holders of the side flaps (E) with the
hinges of the side cover (D) and (F). (fig. 5)
•

and into the side cover (D) and secure it with two
Allen screws (e) and two hexagon nuts (g). (fig. 6)
•
Secure the rear side cover (G) with the hexagon
screw (f). To do this, you have to move the control
handle (1) away to facilitate access for the hexagon
screw (f). (fig. 7)
