OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR HLS USER
Familiarise yourself with the hydraulic log splitter and its
controls.
Wear safety glasses, or helmet visor combination, loose
fitting gloves, hearing protection and safety work boots.
PPE (Personal Protection
Equipment) is mandatory
before operating this machine.
ALWAYS make certain that all control levers are in the
disengage position prior to starting the engine.
Disconnect the retaining pin from the headstock and lower
the lifting table onto the lifting frame.
DO NOT allow by-standers near the hydraulic
logsplitter while in operation. OPERATING THIS
MACHINE IS A SINGLE PERSON OPERATION.
It is the responsibility of the operator to keep
bystanders and animals a minimum of 6 metres (18 feet)
away from the hydraulic log splitter while in operation.
Open fuel shut off valve, if engine is equipped.
Move choke control to CHOKE or START position.
Note: Choke must be fully closed. Move throttle
control to RUN or FAST position. If engine is equipped
with rocker style stop switch, push RUN or I (I = Ignition)
before starting. Rewind Starter: Grasp rope handle and
pull slowly until resistance is felt to prevent kickback. Then
pull cord rapidly to overcome
compression and start engine.
Repeat if necessary with choke
off and throttle control in FAST
position. Operate engine in fast
position.
Place or roll log / wood onto lifting table (DO NOT EXCEED
250KGS/550LBS).
Lift the log / wood and roll the log / wood between the head
stock and the splitting head. NEVER have your hands or
fingers between the log / wood and the splitting head or
head stock.
NEVER place your hands or fingers
between the end of the log / wood and the
headstock. (See inside reference photo).
NEVER place your hands or fingers between the end of the
log / wood and the splitting head.
NEVER position the log by placing your hands or fingers at
the ends of the log / wood.
Position the log by placing a hand on the top of the log /
wood as close to the centre of the log / wood as possible.
NEVER have your hands or fingers close to the headstock
or splitting head while the machine is in operation.
REMEMBER OPERATING THIS MACHINE IS A SINGLE
PERSON OPERATION. Keep all bystanders a minimum of
6 metres (18 feet) away.
ALWAYS position the log / wood to split with the grain of the
log / wood.
When splitting wood always operate the hydraulic logsplitter
in front of the axle on the hydraulic valve side of the main
beam only. Use caution whilst standing in this position as
certain logs / wood can spring back under tension, and exit
from the hydraulic logsplitter with force.
Engage the splitting head control lever until it comes in
contact with the log / wood. Slowly ease the splitting head
into the log / wood. Do not try to force the split. Once the
log / wood is secured between the splitting head and head
stock remove your hand from the top centre of the log / wood
and proceed to split. NEVER PLACE YOUR HANDS OR
FINGERS AT THE END OF THE LOG / WOOD.
SPLIT WOOD IN THE DIRECTION OF THE GRAIN ONLY.
Log / Wood to be split should be cut as squarely as possible.
NEVER attempt to load the hydraulic log splitter when the
ram is in motion.
NEVER straddle or climb over the hydraulic log
splitter while in use.
NEVER insert hands or fingers into the cracks
of the log / wood during the splitting procedure.
Once the log / wood has been split return the
splitting head clear all debris and repeat the procedure
STOP ENGINE: Do not move choke control to Choke
position to stop engine. Backfire or engine damage may
occur. Move throttle control to SLOW
position, then push rocker switch to O
(STOP), or turn key to off if equipped.
AFTER USE
Turn fuel tap to “OFF” position
Allow machine to cool down (minimum 5 minutes)
Clean with warm soapy water. Ensure no water

* Use only approved fuel containers and funnels.
Remember, fuel is a potential hazard .
Be sure Tyne Control Lever is set to “Neutral”
while loading and unloading the rotary hoe
and when moving to or from jobsite.
Ensure that all grass and weeds have been cut
as low as possible.
2)
If the rotary hoe is to be used in clay or hard
ground conditions, it is recommended to water
the area thoroughly and allow sufficient time
for earth to soften.
