Splitting wood
Perform the splitting motion as follows:
You can also start the splitting motion with the pedal G (in Figure 19) by briefly depressing the pedal. Do not
keep the pedal pressed for long – about one second is enough. The foot pedal is primarily intended for
splitting the last piece of wood. By using the pedal, the operator has no need to unnecessarily lower the
cutting flange. Instead, the splitting can be activated more quickly and easily with the pedal.
If there is a problem with splitting and the splitting beam must be prematurely returned to the initial
position, do the following:
1. Move the splitter's
operating lever C to the RUN
position. (The splitter's guards
must be closed).
2. Press the lever A to
the lower position and
then let it return to the
initial position.
3. Ensure that the splitting beam
moves close to the splitting blade
and returns to the initial position –
i.e. the splitting motion works.
Move the splitter's
operating lever C to
the right to reverse
the splitting beam
back to the initial
position.
IMPORTANT! Using the
machine is strictly prohibited
if the splitter's operating
lever is in the RUN position
and the guard of the splitting
section can be opened! The
faulty locking mechanism
must be repaired
immediately. It should only
be possible to open the
guard of
the splitting section
if the control lever is in the
STOP position.
NEVER PUT YOUR
HAND
IN THE CUTTING
OPENING IF THE
SPLITTER IS
RUNNING.
