Recommended size of logs to be split
Recommended size of logs are diameters
from 8 to 35 cm.
The diameter of the log is only indicative.
A small piece of wood can be difficult to
split if it has knots or if its fibres are very
tough. A larger piece of wood can be split
if its fibres are smooth and loose.
Never force the log splitter to split more
than 5 seconds with the cylinder under
pressure in order to split excessively hard
wood. Overheated oil under pressure
may damage the machine. It is very
important that if the log splitter does not
split in the first attempt, please stop the
machine and rotate the log 90 degrees. If
the wood still cannot be split, it means
that the hardness of the wood exceeds
the capacity of the machine and it must
be rejected in order not to damage the log
splitter.
When splitting both handles shall be used
as shown on picture.
Variable splitting length from 25-50 cm.
Height is adjusted by pushing down both
handles (vertically) to the requested size
of wood. Here you let go of one of the
handles. Loosen the knurled nut (shown)
and the bar indicating the height is pulled
up and the
knurled nut is refastened (shown).
