screw will keep the sealed air in hydraulic
system being compressed after being
decompressed. Such continuous air
compression and decompression will blow out
the seals of the hydraulic system and cause
permanent damage to the log splitter.
WARNING!
Max. pressure was set
before the log splitter ex work and the
max pressure limiting screw is sealed
with glue to ensure the log splitter works
under pressure no more than 4 tons. The
setting was done by qualified mechanic
with professional instruments.
Unauthorized resetting will cause the
hydraulic pump fail to output enough
splitting pressure or result in serious
injury as well as damage to the machine.
OPERATION
Plug the power cable.
Load log between log cradles and on the
tank.
Move control handle down with left hand
and switch on the motor with right hand
until the log is split.
Release any hand to stop the ram
extending.
Release both hands to retract the ram for
loading next log.
After log splitting, unplug the power
cable.
Ensure the horizontal distance between
splitter and outlet is more than 3m in
case of the dust influence.
Allow only responsible adults who have
read and understood the manual to
operate this machine.
Be familiar with all controls and proper
operation. Know how to stop the machine
quickly in the event of an emergency.

the influence of alcohol, drugs or
medication.
Only a single operator is allowed to load
and operate this log splitter. Keep
bystanders, helpers, pets and children at
a sufficient distance to the machine.
Only use your hands to operate the
control handle and the switch. Arms, feet,
knees, rope, heavy objects and extension
device are not allowed.
Never put any part of your body between
the extending ram and the wedge.
Don’t step over the splitter when the
motor is running.
Always split log along its grain. If across
the grain, some types of wood may burst
or fly out resulting in injury.
If the log is clipped on the wedge, release
both hands and unplug the power cable
immediately. Knock off the log with a
hammer slightly (not with your hands).
Never attempt to split more than one log
at a time unless the ram has fully
extended and a second log is needed to
complete the separation of the first log.
Never attempt to split one log on top of
another.
Regularly clear the split wood to keep
work area tidy for firm footing.
Never operate your splitter on wet,
muddy or icy surface. Safe footing is
essential in preventing accidents.
Never leave the machine unattended with
the motor running.
Never use this machine in damp or rainy
environment to avoid electric shock or
short circuit.
Operate log splitter in proper lighting.
Switch off and unplug power cable quickly
when the machine is out of order. For
example : the noises becoming louder
and the ram running erratic indicate
there’s excessive air or a shortage of
hydraulic oil in your tank for you to
release vent bolt or add hydraulic fluid.
Don’t pull on power supply cable to
unplug.
