Step Four:
Check Hydraulic
System
Check the hydraulic system carefully:
1.
Visually inspect all hoses, tubing, clamps/fittings, pump, and cylinder for cracks,
fraying, kinks, or other damage.
2.
Check all components for oily residue, which may indicate a leak.
Do NOT operate the log splitter if there is any indication of damage or oily residue.
Small leaks in hydraulic lines can cause severe injuries and can also be an indication of
catastrophic failure in the near future. The life of hydraulic hoses may be from a few
months to a few years, depending on use and storage patterns.
WARNING
: High fluid pressures and temperatures are developed in hydraulic
log splitters. Hydraulic fluid escaping through a pin hole sized opening can burn or
puncture skin, resulting in wounds that could cause blood poisoning, infection,
disability, gangrene, amputation, or death. Therefore, the following instructions
should be heeded at all times when inspecting or servicing the hydraulic
components of the log splitter:
Stop the engine, disconnect the spark plug, and move the split control lever
back and forth to relieve pressure before changing or adjusting hydraulic
system components such as hoses, tubing, fittings or other components.
NEVER check for leaks with your hand. Leaks can be located by holding a
piece of cardboard or wood (at least two feet long) with your hand at one end
and passing the other end over the suspected area (wear eye protection). Look
for discoloration of the cardboard or wood.
NEVER adjust the pressure setting of the pump or valve.
If injured by escaping fluid, no matter how small the wound is, see a doctor at
once. A typical injection injury may be a small puncture wound that does not
look serious. However, severe infection or reaction can result if proper
medical treatment is not administered immediately by a doctor who is familiar
with injection injuries.
WARNING:
NEVER remove the hydraulic oil fill cap when the engine is
running or hot. Hot oil can escape causing severe burns. Allow log splitter to
cool completely before removing hydraulic oil fill cap.
