Operation
However there is a possibility that, if the moving Duocut blade
encounters a knot at a shallow angle then rather than stopping, the
blade may be deflected off line and if splitting continues the moving
carriage arms can be bent out of alignment.
When splitting logs, you should therefore monitor the moving duocut
blade and if you observe the blade being deflected away from the
centreline of the splitter, you should stop splitting immediately. After
the blade has returned to its stop you should turn the log through
90 degrees about the long axis and try splitting the log again.
To minimise the possibility of a knot deflecting the blade, it is
recommended to place logs that have a visible knot, so that the knot
is vertical. Note however that as explained on page 13, you must
not place a log with a split face towards the bed of the log splitter in
order to position a knot vertically.
RAM STOP (FM10 All Models)
Loosen the knob on the ram stop so that
it is free to slide on the bar.
Operate the log splitter to move the ram
forward to the required length.
Holding the operating lever in place to
ensure the ram does not return, position
the ram stop against the front of the
splitter and tighten using the knob.
The ram stop can be adjusted by simply
unscrewing the knob and sliding along
the cradle bar, the ram may need to be
moved forward depending on the length
of log you wish to split. The operating
lever must be held in place when
unscrewing the ram stop or the ram will
return.
Ram Stop
IMPORTANT: Ensure the motor is switched off and only
use the operating lever to hold the ram in position when
adjusting the ram stop.
