Use common sense. . Always be sure to stand inside the Operator Zone when running your log splitter. IMPORTANT: Before starting the splitting operation, cycle pressure plate of the splitter three to four times back and forth by pushing and releasing switches to help remove any air that may have mixed into the hydraulic fluid during handling, storage, etc. Oil is incompressible; therefore, to ensure the efficiency of the log splitter, it is important that the hydraulic system does not contain air bubbles. If there is an air bubble in the system, the force applied gets used compressing the air in the bubble rather than moving the piston. This can compromise the efficiency of the system. Splitting Wood 1. Place the log splitter on firm, leveled ground and block the wheels to prevent them from rolling. 2. Split wood in the direction of the grain; never place wood across the log splitter. 3. Do not hold the log by the ends when you are positioning it onto the log splitter. 4. Place the log on the pressure plate of the machine. Be sure that the body of the log is lying firmly against the vertical beam of the log splitter and the end of the log is well supported by the pressure plate. If the log tends to wobble, reposition it by turning it. The supporting guides help to keep the log at the center or the log splitter. NOTE: Maximum log size is 20" long and 12" diameter. 1. If the log moves away from the beam, retract the pressure plate and turn the log 90 degrees. Do not force the log on the tip part of the blade; this can damage blade welds and the body of the machine. While operating the log splitter, always be sure of safe and secure operating position and stand inside of the Operator Zone. Page 13 of 18 1. Activate pressure plate (see section on Foot-Operated Switch Plate) and keep holding until split pieces of the log fall away. Then release switch plate. This will cause the pressure plate to retract to its starting position. 2. When the job is finished and you are ready to store your log splitter, tighten the bleed screw to prevent oil leakage during storage time. NOTE: We recommend that wood be left to air dry, as it will make the splitting process much easier and faster. Wood which is well-seasoned also produced up to 44% more heat than green wood. Several things can limit the splitting capacity of the log splitting. Knotty wood, wood with twisted grain, or a stump with roots. The more of these characteristics present in a piece of wood, the more difficult it will be to split. A knot is that portion of a branch that has become incorporated in the bole of a tree. The influence of a knot on the mechanical properties of a wood member is due to the interruption of continuity and change in the direction of wood fibers associated with the knot. The diameter of a log does not necessarily indicate the difficulty of the split. A larger log can be split easier than a smaller log, if its fiber is straight. Foot-Operated Switch Box: . Make sure the log splitter is firm, level ground, and block the wheels. . Place the wood properly into the machine. . Place the foot-operated switch box on a flat, even surface, avoiding water and wet conditions. . Move hands away from working area; place them on the cart handle. . Step on the switch lightly and the machine with start to operate. Keep your foot on the switch through the entire wood-splitting operation. . Remove your foot from the switch box and the machine will return to its original position. WARNING! NEVER start the machine when hands are in the working areas! Removal of logs jammed on the wedge. Warning! . Never request the assistance of another person to help you remove a jammed log! . Never remove a log jammed on the splitting wedge with your hands! . Keep your hands and body parts away from the open splits and cracks in the log. The wood can close suddenly and cause injury. . Never try to remove the jammed log by hitting it with a hammer or any other object — this can damage the hydraulic pump cover, motor cover or other parts of the log splitter. Page 14 of 18 1. Release foot switch and wait until pressure plate is fully retracted and returns in the lowest position. 2. Place a piece of wood shaped as wedge under the jammed log and activate the pressure plate of the log splitter to push it up and under the jammed log. Repeat this process using larger wooden wedges until the jammed log is released. MAINTENANCE Warning! Before performing any maintenance, be sure that: • Log splitter is disconnected from the power source • Pusher plate is fully retractable (returned to the lowest position) and no residual hydraulic energy is left in the system. STORAGE . Clean Unit. . Lubricate for rust prevention. . Tighten the Air Bleed Screw. . Fold in the handle (optional). . Store in a sheltered/dry area not accessible to children.
