4. Press and hold ON button, then push and hold
hydraulic control lever down. Hydraulic ram
will drive log into splitting wedge. When
hydraulic ram stops, immediately release
both ON button and hydraulic control lever.
5. Clear pieces of split wood away from log
splitter.
Note: A piece of split wood set crossways on
log table makes a good wedge, but it must be
thin enough to slide under end of jammed log.
2. Start splitter to push wedge under jammed
log until log lifts off splitting wedge.
Note: If first wedge does not free log, repeat
process with a second wedge until log is free.
Removing Stuck Log
Occasionally, logs will not split and become
stuck on the splitting wedge. When this happens,
DO NOT try to remove it by hand or by kicking it.
This can result in personal injury and damage the
log splitter.
To safely remove a stuck log:
1. With hydraulic ram in start position, set a
wooden wedge flat side down on log table
with narrow end pointing under log, as shown
in
Figure 7.
NOTICE
DO NOT continue to hold controls in ON
position after hydraulic ram stops. Doing
so will damage the hydraulic system.

Never use your hands to remove a stuck
log, as hydraulic ram could crush hands
and fingers during accidental startup.
Always use a wooden wedge to remove
a stuck log. If log is still stuck, turn log
splitter OFF and use a hammer and crow
bar to remove stuck log.
