Set-Up
Gas and Oil Fill-Up
Service the engine with gasoline and oil as instructed in the Engine
Operator’s Manual. Read the instructions carefully.
WARNING!
Use extreme care when handling gasoline.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and the vapors are
explosive. Never fuel the machine indoors or while the
engine is hot or running.
NOTE:
Your log splitter is shipped with motor oil in the engine. You MUST
check the oil level before operating. Be careful not to overfill. Gasoline can
be added to the engine when the log splitter is in either the horizontal or
vertical position. However, it may be easier when the log splitter is in the
vertical position.
Preparing the Log Splitter
1. Lubricate the beam area (where the splitting wedge will slide)
with engine oil. Do not use grease.
2. Use a wrench to remove the vented dipstick, which is located in
front of the engine on top of the reservoir tank. See Figure 4-9.
Figure 4-9
NOTE:
The log splitter is filled to the proper operating level
from the manufacturer with Shell Tellus® S2 M 32 Hydraulic Fluid.
However, you MUST check the fluid level before operating. If not
filled, proceed with the following steps:
CAUTION:
Much of the original fluid has been drawn
into the cylinder and hoses. Make certain to refill the
reservoir to prevent damage to the hydraulic pump.
3. Check the fluid level using the dipstick. See Figure 4-9. Do not
overfill.
NOTE:
Approved fluids include Shell Tellus® S2 M 32 Hydraulic
Fluid, Dexron® III/Mercon® Automatic Transmission Fluid, Pro-
Select™ AW-32 Hydraulic Oil or 10WAW-ISO Viscosity Grade 32
Hydraulic Oil. It is not recommended that fluids be mixed. To top
off the reservoir tank during initial set-up, use Shell Tellus® S2 M 32
Hydraulic Fluid only.
4. Replace the dipstick securely, tightening it until the top of the
threads are flush with top of the pipe.
WARNING!
The next step requires two people to safely
remove the log splitter from the base of the crate.
2. Carefully move the log splitter off of the crate by lifting up on
the tongue tube, near the hitch coupling, and slowly pushing the
machine backwards — over the two rear wheel chucks — and off
the back of the crate base. See Figure 4-7.
