Protecting Yourself and Those Around You
Safety for Children and Pets
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children and pets. Children are often attracted to the
machine and the splitting activity.
Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them. Always follow these
precautions:
Keep children and pets at least 50 feet from the working area and ensure they are under the watchful care of a responsible
adult.
Be alert and turn the machine off if children or pets enter the work area.
Never allow children to operate the Log Splitter.
