Troubleshooting
Use this troubleshooting information to remedy problems that may occur during
the operation of the log splitter.

The problem may be with the log or with the machine:
• Make sure the log is properly positioned on the worktable. See
Select/prepare a log for splitting
in the Operation section.
• The size or hardness of the log may exceed the capacity of the splitter.
Reduce the log size before placing it on the splitter.
• Splitting wedge cutting edge is blunt. See
Sharpen the splitting wedge
in the
Maintenance section.
• The bleed screw was not loosened and air is trapped in the hydraulic tank.
Loosen the bleed screw one or two turns.

Check the
hydraulic fluid level
in the Maintenance section.
• The maximum pressure limiting adjustment setting has changed. Contact the
dealer.
