Add Hydraulic Oil

1 .  Make sure the log splitter is on a flat, level surface .
2 .  Remove the oil plug from the oil tank . (A)
3 .  Add 5 gal . (18 .9 L) of hydraulic oil - 10W AW32, ASLE 

H-150, or ISO 32 are all acceptable types of fluid .

4 .  Check the hydraulic oil level using the oil sight 

glass .  Oil level should visibly fill the glass sight . (B)

5 .  Replace and tighten the oil plug and orient the vent 

hole away from the operator zone .

 High Pressure Hose 

– This is the only hose with steel connectors crimped on 

both ends . 

– One end connects to the control valve (sealed with 

teflon tape) .

– Other end connects to the top of the pump (sealed by 

O-Ring) .

– Because of the male/female ends, this hose only fits 

the correct way . 

Suction Hose 

– This is the clear hose that connects the hydraulic tank 

to the pump inlet . 

– Both ends of the hose are secured with hose clamps . 

Oil Return Hose 

– This hose returns the oil exiting the cylinder to the tank

– It has no connectors crimped onto it .

– The hose ends push over barbed fittings on the control 

valve and the oil filter . 

– Both ends are secured with hose clamps . 

– Notice how the hose is placed through the retainer 

ring on the beam . This holds the hose close to the 
frame so it does not flop out beyond the wheels (and 
catch on things while towing) .

The pump outlet connection does NOT require teflon 
tape . The o-ring seals against the face of the fittings on 
the pump and hose . Tighten to approximately 12 ft-lb . 
Over-tightening can damage the pump .
