steel toed shoes and tight fitting gloves (without loose cuffs or draw strings). Always wear a protective hearing
device when operating this log splitter.
2.
NEVER
wear loose clothing or jewelry that can be caught by moving parts of the log splitter. Keep clothing and
hair away from all moving parts when operating this log splitter.

operate your log splitter in an open area. (Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide which can be
deadly when inhaled.)
6.
ALWAYS
operate your log splitter in daylight or under good artificial light.
7.
ALWAYS
operate your log splitter on level ground. (Operating on a slope could cause the log splitter to roll over
or logs to fall off.)
8.
ALWAYS
block wheels to prevent unintended movement.
9.
ALWAYS
lock beam in either the horizontal or vertical position.
10.
ALWAYS
keep the work area clean. Remove split wood around the log splitter immediately so that you don’t
stumble over it.
11. Check all nuts, bolts and hydraulic fittings are tight to be sure the equipment is in a safe working condition.
12. Both ends of the log should be cut as square as possible to help prevent the log from riding out of the splitter
during operation. Do not split logs greater than 25 inches in length. Uneven logs (e.g. knotted, curved, etc.)
should not be used.
13.
ALWAYS
check the oil level before you start the log splitter.

sufficient to inflict serious injury.

recommend a Wide Vision Safety Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard safety glasses with side
shields. Always use eye protection which is marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1.
