5. Operation
OPERATING SAFETY
• Read and understand owner's manual before
starting. Review safety instructions annually.
• Close and secure all guards, deflectors and shields
before starting and operating.
• Do not allow anyone within 20 ft (6 m) of machine
or logs during operation. Wood chips can be
ejected and injure others. Keep children away.
• Move controls to neutral or off position, stop
engine, remove ignition key and wait for all
moving parts to stop before servicing, repairing or
maintaining.
• Do not try to process more than one log at a time.
The extra log can be ejected and cause injury.
• Keep your fingers and hands away from cracks in
the log that can open or close while splitting.
• Always handle cut logs by holding onto the sides,
not the top and bottom.
• Do not load the splitting chamber while the wedge
is in motion.
• Do not try to split logs across the grain. Some logs
can burst or splinter and fly out of the machine
causing injury.
• For unevenly cut logs, always place the wide end
down and the most square end against the splitting
wedge.
• Never stand directly in line with the winch rope
while winching.
• Do not touch winch rope during operation.
• Check rope condition before using winch. Rope
may break during operation if it is cut, knotted, has
broken strands or worn. Replace rope if damaged.
• Never consume alcoholic beverages or drugs
which can hinder alertness or coordination
while operating this equipment. Consult your
doctor about operating this machine while taking
prescription medications.
• Operate only on level ground.
• Do not exceed winching angle of more than 25°.
• Always winch up a slope. Do not winch across a
slope.
• Do not operate on hillsides or when working area is
cluttered, wet, muddy or icy to prevent slipping and
tripping.
• Use care when pulling logs from a pile for splitting
as they can roll when attaching rope or winching
toward wood processor.
• Position machine so prevailing winds blow engine
exhaust fumes away from operator's station.
• Keep working area clean and free of debris to
prevent tripping. Operate only on level ground.
• Stop engine when leaving unattended.
• Do not exceed a safe travel speed when
transporting.
• Read the chainsaw operator's manual and follow
all safety instructions.
The operator has the responsibility of being
familiar with and following all operating and safety
procedures.
Although the Wood Processor is easy to use, each
operator should review this section to get familiar with
the detailed safety and operating procedures. When
using this machine, follow this procedure:
