In the automatic mode, the flap comes up during the cutting operation and
receives the cut-off billet. When the crosscut saw-bar is raised using the
control lever, first the flap goes down and guides the billet to the splitting
chute, then the saw-bar starts going up again. This helps the billet settle
correctly in the splitting chute before the automatic splitting is launched
(applies provided that the automatic launch feature is also active).
The flap can be operated manually using the control lever 5 irrespective of
the position of the ON-OFF lever 12.
6.4 Disturbances during the splitting operation and their
remedy
A stuck log:
If the logs are big and have big branches, the force of the pusher may not be
sufficient.
If the log sticks to the wedge, reverse the pusher using the control lever.
Raise the splitting-wedge and retry the splitting using the manual control.
Changing the position of the log often helps.
If the log does not split, turn the splitting lever to the right to reverse the
cylinder and enable safe removal of the log.
Open the protective net and hit the stuck wood loose using another piece of
wood.
If the log has a big branch, make the branch split by turning the log and
pushing it towards the wedge with the root end first. Doing it this way
requires the least power..
6.5 Re-splitting the logs safely
If you want to process small-sized firewood from large logs, even pieces split
in 8 or 12 ways may still be too large.
Proceeding in the following way will help you to split the wood safely into
even smaller pieces.
1. Open the protective net for splitting chute
2. Place the logs to be split into the splitting chute.
3. Close the protective net.
4. Start the splitting operation with the manually-operated start lever.
7 OPERATION OF THE SPLITTING MECHANISM
The splitting mechanism can either be operated manually or set to operate
automatically.
