After 5 seconds of operation, the pressurised oil will be overheated
and the machine could be damaged. In the case of an extremely
hard log, rotate it by 90
o
(around the central axis of the log) to see
whether it can be split in a different direction. In any case, if you
are not able to split the log, this means that its hardness exceeds
the capacity of the machine and thus that log should be discarded
to protect the log splitter.
NEVER
place a split log with
the split face or faces against
the bed of the log splitter, as
this can cause the log to jam
against the log guides as it
splits, thereby bending and
possibly breaking the log
guides and possibly the body
of the log splitter.
WARNING:
Never place the split face or faces of a log
against the bed of the log splitter.
IMPORTANT:
Never keep pressure on a log for more than
5 seconds to force it to split very hard wood.
