to allow sufficient current flow to the motor.
Avoid use of loose or inadequately insulated connections.
Connections must be made with a protected material suitable for
outdoor use.
z
AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK
Check that the electric circuit is adequately protected and that it
corresponds with the power, voltage and frequency of the motor.
Check that there is a ground connection, and a regulation
differential switch further up the circuit.
Ground the log splitter. Prevent body contact with grounded
surfaces: pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerator enclosures.
Never open the pushbutton box on the motor. Should this be
necessary, contact a qualified electrician.
Make sure your fingers do not touch the plug’s metal prongs
when plugging or unplugging the log splitter.
z
KEEP VISITORS AND CHILDREN AWAY
The log splitter must only be operated by one person. Other
people should keep a safe distance from the work area,
especially when the log splitter is under operation. Never use
another person to help you with freeing a jammed log.
z
INSPECT YOUR LOG
Make sure there are no nails or foreign objects in logs to be split.
The ends of the logs must be cut square. Branches must be cut
off entirely so that the trunk is relatively smooth.
z
DON’T OVERREACH
Floor must not be slippery.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Never stand on the log splitter. Serious injury could occur if the
tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is unintentionally contacted. Do
not store anything above or near the log splitter so that someone
might stand on the tool to reach them.
z
AVOID INJURY FROM ACCIDENTS
Always pay full attention to the movement of the log pusher.
Do not attempt to load the log on until the log pusher has
stopped.
Keep hands out of the way of all moving parts.
z
PROTECT YOUR HANDS
Keep your hands away from splits and cracks which open in the
log. They may close suddenly and crush your hands.
Do not remove jammed logs with you hands.
