5
. Lift the front leg and carefully roll the base
unit off the pallet.
6
. Carefully stand the rail assembly in an
upright, vertical position.
Make sure the rail assembly is standing on
a flat, level area. If necessary, have a
helper steady the rail to prevent it from tip-
ping over. The rail assembly weighs
approximately 270 pounds and will cause
bodily injury if it falls on someone.
7
. Carefully align the base assembly, using
the front leg, with the rail assembly.
Have someone hold the rail assem-
bly to prevent it from falling during
this part of the assembly.
8
. Center the rail between the hinge plates
on the base assembly, as shown. Insert a
1/2-13 x 4-1/2 inch long hex head bolt
through rear top hole of the hinge plates
and rail. Install and tighten a 1/2-13 lock-
nut.
NOTE:
To prevent the rail from binding, do
not overtighten the locknut. This connection
serves as the pivot point for the log splitter
from the vertical to horizontal position.
