Start-Up Procedure
Important Notice
Follow all the instructions listed below before starting or operating your log
splitter. Failure to do so may result in engine and hydraulic pump damage.
Also read the Briggs & Stratton Operating & Maintenance Instructions. If you
do not have this manual, contact Briggs & Stratton at 800-233-3723 to obtain
another one or download a copy from their web site at
www.briggsandstratton.com.
If this log splitter is purchased without an engine, the customer assumes all liabilities that
might arise from an engine that is incompatible with the design of the log splitter. Also,
any unauthorized changes or modifications to the log splitter will void all warranties.
1
. Fill the hydraulic tank with 3.8 gallons of SAE 10W or AW-32 tractor hydraulic oil or
automatic transmission fluid such as Dexron VI, Mercon V, or equivalent. The tank is
full when the oil level is approximately one inch from the top of the tank. Do not tight-
en the fill cap at this time.
NOTE:
The total hydraulic system oil capacity for this unit is 5.4 gallons.
2
. Fill the engine’s crank case with the engine manufacturer’s recommended oil.
3
. Lubricate the surface of the slide rail with grease. This will help to prevent wear
between the slide plates and the slide rail.
4
. Remove the spark plug wire from the engine. This prevents the engine from starting
until the hydraulic pump and cylinder are completely filled with oil. Make sure the
spark plug wire is held away from the spark plug with string or other nonconductive
material.
5
. Push the valve control handle with one hand to the forward (extend) position (towards
the front of the cylinder). Pull the engine starter cord with the other hand
(approximately 15 times) until the cylinder piston moves forward. (Keep everything
away from the pusher plate and slide wedge during this step).
NOTE:
Extending the cylinder piston draws the hydraulic fluid through the system
and expels any trapped air in the system.
6
. Check the fluid level in the hydraulic tank and add oil as needed.
WARNING
Be careful not to spill fuel when filling the engine. If fuel should spill,
quickly wipe off and allow the excess fuel to evaporate before
continuing. Fuel and fuel vapors are highly flammable and can cause
personal injury or even death when ignited.
