Initial Set-up
IMPORTANT!
Engine is shipped without oil. DO NOT start the engine before adding oil.
See Assembly Instructions section of this manual to assemble the log splitter before
setup.
Step One:
Inspect Log
Splitter
Components.
Closely inspect all log splitter components.
(See Machine Components section of this manual for diagram of components.)
If you have missing or damaged components, please contact Product Support at
1-866-443-2576.
Step Two:
Add Oil to Engine
Add oil to the engine.
Using a funnel, add SAE 10W-30 oil up to the FULL mark
on the dipstick. (See engine Owner’s Manual for oil capacity and location of fill cap.)
Step Three:
Add Hydraulic Oil
to Reservoir and
Prime the Pump
WARNING:
High fluid pressures and temperatures are developed in hydraulic log
splitters. Hydraulic fluid escaping through a pin hole sized opening can burn or puncture skin,
resulting in wounds that could cause blood poisoning, infection, disability, gangrene,
amputation, or death. Therefore, the following instructions should be heeded at all times when
inspecting or servicing the hydraulic components of the log splitter.
NEVER check for leaks with your hand. Leaks can be located by holding a piece of
cardboard or wood (at least two feet long) with your hand at one end and passing the
other end over the suspected area (wear eye protection). Look for discoloration of the
cardboard or wood.
NEVER adjust the pressure of the pump or valve.
If injured by escaping fluid, no matter how small the wound is, see a doctor at once. A
typical injection injury may be a small wound that does not look serious. However,
severe infection or reaction can result if proper medical treatment is not administered
immediately by a doctor who is familiar with injection injuries.
1.
Remove hydraulic oil dipstick.
2.
Refer to the
Specifications
section for approximate hydraulic oil capacity.
3.
Fill reservoir with 10 wt AW32, ASLE H-150, or ISO 32 oil. Use a funnel
4.
Replace hydraulic oil dipstick and check that oil level reads full. Note: Do not
thread in dipstick when checking oil level.
5.
Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug
6.
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 5 (five) times
to remove air from the high pressure lines.
9.
With wedge retracted, check oil level again.
