DELIVERING LOG SPLITTER TO WORK SITE
The log splitter is equipped with 2
wheels for minor moving. To move the
log splitter to the work site, grip the
handle (a) to tilt the log splitter slightly
after making sure the oil tank cover is
tightened.
If a crane is used, tie
the rope at the lifting
point below the blue
bundling label, then
hoist the machine
with the crane.
SPLITTER OPERATION
Plan your work site. Work safely and save effort by planning your work beforehand.
Have your logs positioned where they can be easily reached. Have a site located to
stack the split wood or load it onto a nearby truck or another carrier. Position the log
splitter on solid level ground.
Applying a thin coat of grease to the surfaces of the ram before operation will
lengthen the durability of the ram.
Bleed the air out of the hydraulic system
before starting the log splitter. The cover of
the hydraulic oil tank should be loosened by
some rotations until air can go in and out of
the oil tank smoothly.
Air flow thru the oil tank filler should be
detectable during the operations.
Before moving the log splitter, make sure the
cover of the oil tank is tightened to avoid oil
leaking from this point.
FAILED TO LOOSEN THE OIL TANK COVER WILL KEEP THE
SEALED AIR IN HYDRAULIC SYSTEM BEING COMPRESSED
AFTER BEING DECOMPRESSED. SUCH CONTINUOUS AIR
COMPRESSION AND DECOMPRESSION WILL BLOW OUT
THE SEALS OF THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM AND CAUSE
PERMANT DAMAGE TO THE LOG SPLITTER.
