25-TON LOG SPLITTER - OWNER'S MANUAL
Make sure the log splitter engine is off. Never move the log splitter with
its engine running.
2. Turn the fuel shut-off valve to the OFF position. This prevents carburetor flooding
and reduces the chance of fuel leakage. Refer to the engine manual for fuel valve
location.
3. Lock the support leg in the DOWN position before you move the log splitter.
4. Move the log splitter by hand to desired work site.
Never operate through the relief valve for more than 5 seconds.
Never allow anyone to sit or ride on the log splitter.
Never transport cargo or wood on the log splitter.
Towing by vehicle
1. Turn the fuel shutoff valve off. This prevents fuel from
flooding the engine.
2. Check the tires to ensure they are fully inflated to 30
PSI for proper functionality.
Do not over inflate tires. Serious injury can oc-
cur if tire explodes.
When seating a bead after repair, do not exceed
30 PSI. Pressures higher than 30 PSI can cause
the tire and wheel to rupture and explode.
3. Make sure hitch is in good working order.
4. Check safety chains. Two safety chains must be
used while towing. Cross safety chains under the
coupler, allowing only enough slack for vehicle
turns.
5. Pull out the lock lever and put the support leg in
the UP position, then release the lever and make
sure the leg is secured.
6. Tow the log splitter carefully to desired work site.
Be aware of the added length of the splitter.
Never tow this log splitter over 70 kmh (45 mph). Faster speeds may result in loss
of control.
