TOWING SAFETY 

 

 

 

Do not allow persons to ride on splitter.  Do not carry any cargo or wood on your 
splitter.  It may fall off and endanger vehicles that are following you. 

 

 

Be sure support leg is in the travel position and coupling secure.  This must also be 
retracted so not to interfere while towing.  Retract support leg by removing pin, 
pivoting up, and replacing pin. 

 

 

Never exceed 45 MPH while towing your splitter.  Be extra cautious when traveling 
over rough terrain, especially over railroad tracks. 

 

 

Always be careful while backing your splitter.  You could jackknife your log splitter 
if not careful. 

 

 

Before using splitter, disconnect it from tow vehicle.  A log could easily be pushed 
forward into the vehicle. 

 

 

See tire and wheel specifications for PSI while towing. 

 

 

Be aware of the extra length of splitter while turning, parking, crossing intersections, 
and in all driving situations.
