Size of the logs to be split
The figure 1 shows the maximum log sizes that can be split.
The diameter of the log is indicative: a small log can be difficult to split if it has
knots or a particularly tough fiber. On the other hand, if the wood has regular
fibers it is not difficult to split logs with diameter greater than the maximum shown
in fig. 1.
It is important not to insist when the log does not split on the first attempt,
as the pump may be damaged by the overheating of the oil when the
machine is made to work under the maximum stress in the attempt to split
excessively hard wood.
