Maintenance

CLEANING:

After every use, wipe down the Log Splitter to remove any tree sap or dirt that has

accumulated  during use.  This will extend the use of the Log Splitter.  Keep machined parts lightly greased.
Prevent wood, dust and debris from accumulating on the Log Splitter.

STORAGE

:

Childproof the machine and work area.  Make sure to use padlocks (not included) and to secure

the Log Splitter after operation.
