Initial Setup
Step Three:
Add Hydraulic Oil
to Reservoir
(continued)
5. Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug. This prevents the engine from
starting until the hydraulic pump and cylinder are completely filled with oil. Make
sure the spark plug wire is held away from the spark plug with string or other
nonconductive material.
6. Push the valve control handle with one hand to the forward (extend) position
(towards the front of the cylinder). Pull on the starter grip recoil at least 20 times so
that hydraulic fluid has cycled through the pump.
7. Reconnect the spark plug wire to the spark plug.
8. Start engine and use control valve handle to extend and retract wedge five (5) times
to remove air from the high pressure lines.
9. With wedge retracted, shut off engine.
10. Check oil level again. Fill if necessary.
11. Replace hydraulic oil fill/vent cap.
WARNING: NEVER remove the hydraulic oil fill cap when the engine is running or
hot. Hot oil can escape causing severe burns. Allow log splitter to cool completely
before removing hydraulic oil fill cap.
Note: If the log splitter will be run for long periods of time in outdoor temperatures
above 70°F, we recommend changing the hydraulic oil to DEXRON III.
Step Four:
Lubricate Beam
Lubricate the surface of the beam with grease. This will help prevent wear between the
wedge keepers and the beam.
Apply grease to the top of the beam and underneath the edge of the
beam, where the wear pads travel.
