BEFORE SPLITTING WOOD
• Read and understand your Dosko owner’s manual.
• Lock and block the log splitter to prevent unintended
movement.
STARTING LOG SPLITTER
• Flip switch (located on log splitter) to “On” position.
• Turn switch (located on engine) to “On” position.
• Rotate fuel on-off lever (located on engine) to “On” position.
• Rotate choke lever (located on engine) to choking position.
If engine is warm this step may not be necessary.
• Set throttle (located on engine) about ¼ open.
• Pull recoil rope (located on engine) to start engine.
• When engine starts — rotate choke lever to “Off” or
“Open” position.
• Allow engine to warm up prior to splitting wood. Increase
engine speed by moving throttle lever to full open position.
SPLITTING WOOD
• Load log onto beam between the wedge and endplate.
This log splitter is equipped with a unique double-edged
splitting wedge, which is capable of splitting wood on
either the extension or retraction stroke of the wedge.
Use a chainsaw to cut logs square on each end before
splitting. Logs not cut square can slide out while splitting
and become a safety hazard.
Hold the bark side of the logs when loading or
positioning, never the ends.
• With log placed appropriately, pull split control lever
to move splitting wedge in towards log.
• After completion of splitting, turn off unit.
Flip switch (located on log splitter control panel) to “Off”
position.
Turn on-off switch (located on engine) to “Off” position.
Rotate fuel on-off lever (located on engine) to “Off”
position.
• After use, with unit turned off and exercising extreme
caution near HOT components, clean debris from around
engine area as a hot engine can be a fire hazard.
