Operating Instructions
IMPORTANT: Before operating the log splitter turn the bleed
screw as shown below one or two turns to allow air to be released
from the hydraulic system. A flow of air through the bleed screw
should be detectable while the log splitter is in use. Close the bleed
screw after operation. Make sure that the bleed screw is closed
before and during moving. Hydraulic fluid may leak through the
bleed screw opening if the bleed screw is not fully tightened.
Failure to loosen the bleed screw will cause pressure to build up
in the hydraulic tank and could damage the seals and affect the
operation of the log splitter.
