5. Hold the control lever, extending the
pusher plate, until the log is split or the
cylinder rod stops at its maximum travel
position. Stop the log splitter (forward
movement), at any point in the splitting
process, if you feel an unsafe log splitting
condition is occurring. As the log is being
split, DO NOT reach forward and attempt
to catch the split wood — let it fall to the
ground.
6. Once the pusher plate reaches its full
forward travel, pull back on the control
lever to the full retract position. The ram
of the cylinder will automatically retract
into the cylinder.
It is not necessary to hold the control lever
as the cylinder retracts. Stop the pusher
plate if the log sticks (see caution below).
When the cylinder is fully retracted, the
control valve will automatically shift to a
neutral position.
Depending on the type of wood being split, a log may not always split
into two pieces and fall to the ground. If a log sticks to the wedge or
pusher plate, place the valve handle in the neutral position (stop the
pusher plate from retracting), stop the engine, and carefully remove the log from
the wedge or pusher plate. Allowing the log to remain attached to the pusher
plate when it is fully retracted could lead to possible injury and/or damage to the
log splitter.
