Site Considerations
Work Location
Always use the log splitter in a well-lit area and on
a flat, stable work surface. At minimum, your work
area must safely support the combined weight of
the log splitter and the heaviest log you intend to
split.
Work Clearances
Allow enough room on all sides to move logs to
and from the log splitter. Refer to the
Machine
Data Sheet on Page 5 for the dimensions of your
log splitter.
Children and visitors may
be seriously injured if
unsupervised around this
machine. Lock entrances to
storage location and unplug
power connection to prevent
unsupervised use.
To move and lift log splitter:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Close air bleed screw (see Figure 4) by turn-
ing it clockwise until it stops. This prevents
hydraulic fluid from leaking out.
3. To move log splitter, raise front end of
machine by transport handles (see
Figure 4)
and pull log splitter to new location.
4. To lift log splitter, get an assistant to help you.
Use transport handles (see
Figure 4) and
support rear end of machine. DO NOT lift log
splitter by hydraulic control lever.
Lifting & Moving
The wheels on the Model T32305 make it
possible for one person to move the log splitter
short distances; however, we suggest that you get
assistance whenever lifting it.
Assembly
The Model T32305 is shipped from the
factory fully assembled. Before running the
log splitter, you MUST fill the hydraulic fluid
tank to the required level with hydraulic fluid
(refer to
Checking/Adding Hydraulic Fluid on
Page 21). Remove the shipping tag from the
hydraulic control lever after adding hydraulic fluid.
Damage caused by running this machine
without hydraulic fluid will not be covered
under warranty.
This machine is heavy.
Get help whenever
moving the machine
between jobsites or
lifting it to an elevated
work surface.
