BEFORE USING THE LOG SPLITTER
•
Always block the wheels to prevent movement of the
log splitter while in operation.
•
Clear the work area.
•
Check that all nuts, bolts and hydraulic fittings are tight
to be sure the equipment is in a safe working condition.
•
Make sure your outlet type, voltage, and frequency
match the data stated on the model plate (or “Technical
Specifications” in this manual).
•
Check that the switch, power cable and plug are not
damaged (no cracks, etc.) to prevent the risk of electric
shock or a short circuit.
•
Wear non-slip safety shoes, safety goggles, safety
gloves protective hair covering and suitable work
clothing. Never wear jewelry, necktie and other loose
clothing.
Loosen the hydraulic vent plug to release any trapped
air that may have accumulated during shipping. Operate
the log splitter for several cycles to repel the air. Do not
move the splitter while the vent plug is loosened as the
hydraulic fluid could spill out.
NOTE: Failure to loosen the hydraulic vent prior to
operation of this product may cause abnormal splitting or
the seals in the hydraulic system to blow out. Blown seals
could cause permanent damage to the log splitter.

used.
Oil the wedge and upper side of the machine body . This

Always check the oil level before you start the log splitter.
To check the oil level:
•
Unplug the log splitter.
•
Using the lift handle, stand the log splitter on the end
with the wheels (see
FIGURE 8 ).
•
Using a 6mm hex key, remove the oil drain bolt.
•
Wipe the dipstick clean then reinsert it back into
the oil tank.
•
Remove the dipstick and check to see if the oil
level is between the first and second groove on the
dipstick (see
FIGURE 7 ).
•
If there is not enough oil in the oil tank, add oil until
the proper level is reached.
•
If there is the proper amount of oil in the oil tank,
wipe the dipstick clean then replace it in the oil
tank and tighten the oil drain bolt securely.
NOTE: See “Replacing Hydraulic Oil” in the Maintenance
section for recommended oil type .
