ALWAYS

 wear safety glasses.  

 

NEVER 

activate the control until all people are clear of the work area. 

 

NEVER

 only an electrical circuit having adequate capacity as recommended by the log splitter manufacturer.  

 

“BLOWING”

 a fuse or tripping a circuit breaker is usually a warning that you are overloading the machine or 

have too many devices taking power from the circuit, or both. Do NOT install a higher capacity fuse!
