During Operation
During Operation Safety
General Safety
•
The owner/operator can prevent and is responsible
for accidents that may cause personal injury or
property damage.
•
Wear appropriate clothing, including eye
protection; hand protection; long pants;
slip-resistant, substantial footwear; and hearing
protection. Tie back long hair and do not wear
loose clothing or loose jewelry.
•
Do not operate the machine while ill, tired, or
under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
•
Never carry passengers on the machine and keep
bystanders and pets away from the machine
during operation.
•
Before you start the engine, ensure that the
machine is secure from movement, the rail is
locked in the horizontal or vertical position, and
you are in the operating position.
•
Always operate the machine from the operator
zone specified in
Splitting a Log (page 13) . Keep
the operator’s area and adjacent areas clear for
safe, secure footing.
•
Keep your hands and feet away from moving parts.
Keep clear of the splitting wedge at all times.
•
Keep bystanders clear of all moving components
of the machine when activating the controls and
splitting logs.
•
Stop the machine, shut off the engine, wait for
all moving parts to stop, and inspect the splitting
wedge after striking an object or if there is an
abnormal vibration in the machine. Make all
necessary repairs before resuming operation.
•
Never run an engine in an area where exhaust
gasses are enclosed.
•
Never leave a running machine unattended.
•
Before leaving the operating position, do the
following:
– Fully retract the splitting wedge.
– Shut off the engine.
– Wait for all moving parts to stop.
•
Do not operate the machine when there is the risk
of lightning.
•
Use accessories, attachments, and replacement
parts approved by The Toro® Company only.
Splitting Safety
•
Place your hands on the sides of the log, not on the
ends. Never place your hands or any part of your
body between a log and any part of the machine.
•
Do not straddle or reach across the log-splitting
area when operating the machine.
•
Use only your hand to push the control lever
forward (toward the log). If the log moves before
the splitting wedge contacts it, do not touch the
splitting wedge while in motion. Release the
control lever, then position the log.
•
Operate the machine only from the operating
position by the control lever.
•
Only 1 adult should stabilize the log and operate
the control handle to ensure full control over the
log and splitting wedge.
•
Never attempt to split more than 1 log at a time.
•
Keep the work area clean; remove split logs from
around the machine so that you do not slip on
them.
•
Logs should be cut with ends as square as
possible prior to splitting. For logs that are not cut
square, the least-square end and longest portion
of the log should be placed toward the splitting
wedge and the square end placed toward the end
plate.
