Break the log in the direction of its growing grain. Do
not place log across the log splitter for splitting. It
may be dangerous and may seriously damage the
machine.
Do not attempt to split 2 pieces of logs at the same
time. One of them may be thrown by the machine
which could cause serious injuries to the user.
DANGER
Keep you hands away from the splitting area, live
area and heating area while working
!
FREEING A JAMMED LOG
•
Release both controls.
•
After the log pusher moves back and
completely stops at its starting position,
insert a wedge of wood under the jammed
log.
•
Start the logsplitter to push the wedge wood
and go completely under the jammed log.
•
Repeat above procedure with sharper sloped
wedges of wood until the log is completely
freed.
DANGER
Do not try to knock the jammed log off. This will
damage to the machine or may cause serious
injuries.
SHARPENING THE SPLITTING WEDGE
This logsplitter is equipped with a reinforced splitting wedge which is specially treated. After long periods of
operation, and when required; sharpen the wedge using a fine-toothed file removing any burrs or flat spots on
the edge.
