Log Splitting Safety
Always keep your fingers away from cracks that open in the log during the
splitting operation.
✔
ALWAYS keep full attention on the splitting zone to prevent injury. Hazards
can arise from wood defects (knots, irregular shapes, etc).
ALWAYS make sure that both ends of the log you are splitting are cut as square
as possible. This will prevent the log from sliding out of position while under
pressure. Logs should be 18 inches or shorter in length.
Never pile logs to be split in a manner that will cause you to reach across the
log splitter.
Refueling
DO NOT fill the gas tank while the engine is hot or running. Allow time for the
engine to cool down before refueling.
ONLY refuel the log splitter outdoors in a clear area. Avoid breathing gas fumes
or spilling gasoline on the engine. ALWAYS use an approved fuel container to
carry gasoline.
ALWAYS replace the log splitter gas cap and the fuel container cap securely.
NEVER smoke or have an open flame while refueling the log splitter.
Gasoline, oil, and even gas fumes can explode. Be careful not to spill
any fuel on the engine.
If gasoline is spilled, move the machine away from the area of the spill and
avoid creating any source of ignition. Clean up the spill and make sure any
gasoline-soaked rags are disposed of properly.
Always store gasoline in an approved, tightly-sealed container. Store the
container in a cool, dry place. Do not store the container in a house or near any
heating appliance.
Preventing Fires
Important Notice
The log splitter is equipped with an internal combustion engine and should not
be used on or near any unimproved forest-covered, brush-covered, or grass-
covered land unless the engine’s exhaust system is equipped with a spark
arrester meeting local or state laws (if any). If a spark arrester is used, it
should be maintained in effective working order by the owner and/or operator.
