CAUTION
Improper maintenance and storage of the log splitter may void your warranty.
MAINTENANCE
1. Before performing maintenance, the log splitter must be placed in maintenance mode. Turn off the engine
and move the control lever forward and backwards to release any hydraulic pressure.
2. After performing any maintenance, make sure all guards, shields and safety features are put back in
place before operating the log splitter.
3. Regularly (and as needed) grease the axle and wheel bearing area.
4. After greasing the wheel bearings, make sure the axle nuts and pins are in place and secure.
5. Periodically check all fasteners and hoses for tightness and leaks.
6. Annually (and as needed) clean and lightly lubricate all moving parts of the log splitter.
7. Use a glossy enamel spray paint to touch up any scratched/worn painted metal surfaces.
8. Never exceed the load capacity rating of 9 tons as doing so will damage the log splitter.
