Log Splitter Start-Up
NOTICE
The hydraulic oil needs to be above 10°F (-12C°)
before starting the engine. Cold hydraulic oil
can damage the hydraulic pump. If outdoor air
temperature is below 32°F (0C°) allow the log splitter
to warm up by extending and returning the wedge
several times before splitting wood.
1. Put the support leg in the down position and install
lock pin. Block both tires to prevent the log splitter
from moving during operation.
2. Set the log splitter in either the horizontal or
vertical position and lock with pin.
NOTICE
The HORIZONTAL position is used for lighter logs that
can easily be loaded onto the beam. The VERTICAL
position is used for either light logs or heavy logs that
are difficult to load onto the beam.
CAUTION
Back injury can result from lifting logs onto the log
splitter if proper lifting techniques are not used.
3. Load a log onto the beam against the endplate.
Grasp the log from the sides and not the ends.
(Max Log Length-26"). (See fig. 11)
4. Make sure hands are clear from the wedge and
crush hazard areas.
WARNING
Wedge can cut through skin and break bones. Keep
both hands away from wedge and beam slide. Serious
accidents can happen when other people are allowed
inside the work zone. Keep everyone else out of the
work zone while operating control lever.
DO NOT wear loose clothing. It can get tangled in
moving parts of log splitter. Only use the log splitter in
daylight so you can see what you are doing.
5. Using one hand, push control lever forward to split
the log.
6. Using one hand, pull control lever backward to
return wedge to its original position.
7. Always keep work zone clean and free of split wood
and debris.

WARNING
To avoid hand or finger injury, always keep hands clear
of the log and wedge while it is retracting. Always keep
fingers away from any cracks that open in the log while
splitting. They can quickly close and pinch or amputate
your fingers.
If a log gets stuck, embedded or will not split
completely, push the control lever in the reverse
direction and allow the splitter to strip the log
from the wedge.
