How to release a jammed log?
There is a risk of knotted logs getting stuck during the
splitting process.
1.
Switch machine off and disconnect the power.
2.
Do not remove jammed logs with your hand
s.
3.
Carefully move the stuck log with a crowbar backwards
and forwards to loosen it. Don´t damage the splitting
pillar.
Never hammer on the stuck log.
Never use a saw to cut the stuck log out of the machine.
Do not enlist the aid of a second person - this is a one-
man job.
Finishing work:
¾
Bring the splitting blade to the lower position (run-in
state).
¾
Release one of the control handles.
¾
Switch the machine off and disconnect the power.
¾
Follow the care and maintenance instructions.

Observe the following in order to keep the log splitter in
good working order:
Clean the machine thoroughly after you have
finished using it.
Remove any resin remains on the machine.
Lubricate the splitting column regularly or oil it using
environmentally friendly spray oil.
Check the oil level and change the oil as necessary.
Check hydraulic hoses and hose connections
regularly for any leaks and firm fitting.
Sharpening the splitting blade
After longer operating periods, for reduced splitting
performance or slight deformation of the cutting edge, grind
the splitting blade or sharpen it with a fine file (remove burrs).
How do I check the oil level?
1.
The splitting column must
be in run-in state. Now
remove the dipstick.
2.
Clean the dipstick and the
oil seal.
3.
Replace the dipstick fully
into
the oil reservoir.
4.
Now remove the dipstick
again and read off the oil
level.
If the oil level is between the two marking on the
dipstick, there is sufficient oil in the reservoir.
If the oil level is below the lower marking, more oil should
be added with the aid of a clean funnel.
6.
Check the oil seal and replace it if it is damaged in any
way.
7.
Replace the dipstick into the oil reservoir.
When should I change the oil?
The first oil change should be carried out after 50
operating hours, and then every 500 operating hours.
Two persons are required for this.
Changing the oil:
1.
The splitting column must be in run-in state.
2.
Now remove the dipstick.
