GENERALREC0MMENDATIONS
Always observe
safety rules when performing
any
maintenance.
The warranty
on this log splitter
does not cover
items that have been subjected
to operator
abuse
or negligence.
To receive full value from the
warranty,
operator
must maintain
the equipment
as instructed in this manual.
Some adjustments
will need to be made
periodically
to maintain
your equipment
properly.
Follow the maintenance
schedule.
Periodically
check all fasteners
and make sure
they are tight.
WARNING: Always stop the engine
and
disconnect
and ground the spark plug
wire before performing any maintenance
or
adjustments.
Always
wear
safety
glasses
during
operation
or
while
performing any adjustments or repairs.
HydraulicFluid
Check the hydraulic
fluid level in the log splitter
reservoir
tank before each use. Maintain
fluid
level within the range specified
on the dipstick
at
all times.
Change
the hydraulic
fluid in the reservoir
every
100 hours of operation.
Disconnect
the suction
hose from the bottom
of the reservoir
tank and
drain the fluid into a suitable
container.
Refill
using only Dexron
III automatic
transmission
fluid
or 10W AW hydraulic
fluid.
NOTE:
Drain
the fluid and flush
the reservoir
tank
and hoses
with kerosene
whenever
any repair
work
is performed
on the tank, hydraulic
pump,
or valve.
Contaminants
in the fluid will damage
the hydraulic
components.
Any repair to the hydraulic
components
should be performed
by a Sears Service Center.

WARNING:
Use extreme
caution when
working
with
kerosene.
It
is
an
extremely flammable fluid.
HydraulicFilter
Change
the hydraulic
filter every 50 hours of
operation.
Use only a 10 micron hydraulic
filter.
BeamAndSplitting Wedge
Lubricate
both sides of the beam (where
it comes into
contact with the splitting wedge)
before each use with
engine oil. The wedge
plate on the log splitter
is
designed
so the gibs on the side of the wedge
plate
can be removed
and rotated and/or turned over for
even wear. Make certain
to readjust
the adjustment
bolts so wedge
moves
freely, but no excess
space
exists between
the wedge
plate and beam. See the
Adjustment
Section.
