About Your Log Splitter

Thank you for purchasing your NorthStar log splitter!
About Your Log Splitter:
This log splitter is a machine designed to split wood logs using a hydraulically powered moving wedge.
The log splitter’s gasoline engine is used to pressurize the hydraulic system
.
This log splitter is designed to split logs
lengthwise with the grain only.
Your splitter can be used in either a vertical or horizontal splitting position:
•
When the splitter is set up to operate in the horizontal splitting position, a log is placed on the
horizontal beam and the wedge moves horizontally into the end of the log to split it.
•
When the splitter is set up to operate in the vertical splitting position, the log is placed on the
endplate, upright on its end, and the wedge moves down into the top of the log to split it.
The horizontal splitting position is used for lighter logs that can be easily loaded onto the beam. The
vertical splitting position is used for heavier logs that are difficult to load onto the beam.
The technical specifications for your log splitter are provided in the Specifications section of this
manual.
WARNING

force.
