Stopping Engine
1. Push stop switch to OFF.
2. Disconnect spark plug wire and ground against the engine to
prevent unintended starting.
Starting Engine
1. Attach spark plug wire to spark plug. Make certain the metal cap on
the end of the spark plug is fastened securely over the metal tip on
the spark plug.
2. Push stop switch to ON.
3. Move choke control to CHOKE position.
4. Grasp starter handle and pull rope out slowly until engine reaches
start of compression cycle (rope will pull slightly harder at this
point).
5. Pull rope with a rapid, continuous, full arm stroke. Keep a firm grip
on starter handle. Let rope rewind slowly.
6. Repeat, if necessary, until engine starts. Slowly adjust choke
toward RUN position. Wait until engine runs smoothly before each
choke adjustment.
7. If engine falters, move control lever to CHOKE position, then slowly
back to RUN position.
8. If weather is cold, run wedge up or down beam 6 to 8 times to
circulate the hydraulic fluid.
OPERATION
WARNING: When starting a warm engine, the muf-
fler and surrounding areas are hot and can cause a
burn. Do not touch.
Using the Log Splitter
1. Place the log splitter on level, dry ground.
2. Place the beam in either the horizontal or vertical position and lock
in place with the appropriate locking rod.
3. Block the front and back of both wheels.
4. Place the log against the end plate and only split wood in the
direction of the grain.
5. To stabilize the log, place your hand only on sides of log. Never
place hand on the end between the log and the splitting
wedge.
6. Only one adult should stabilize the log and operate the control
handle, so the operator has full control over the log and the splitting
wedge.
Control Handle
1. Move control handle FORWARD or DOWN to split wood.
2. Release the control handle to stop the wedge movement.
3. Move control handle BACK or UP to return the wedge.
Log Dislodger
The log dislodger is designed to remove any partially split wood from
the wedge. This may occur while splitting large diameter wood or
freshly cut wood.
WARNING: Never remove partially split wood from
the wedge with your hands. Fingers may become
trapped between split wood.
1. To remove partially split wood from wedge, move control handle to
REVERSE position until wedge is fully retracted to allow split wood
portion to contact the log dislodger.
2. Once removed from wedge with log dislodger, split wood from
opposite end or in another location.
Vertical Position
1. Pull the horizontal beam lock out to release the beam and pivot the
beam to the vertical position.
2. To lock the beam in the vertical position, pull out on the vertical
beam lock and rotate it to secure the beam. See Figure 4-1.
3. Stand in front of the unit to operate the control handle and to
stabilize the log. See Figure 4-3.
