CHECKING THE DUOCUT BLADE ALIGNMENT
Before splitting any logs, the alignment of the Duocut blade should
be checked and adjusted if necessary. The Duocut blade should
point along the centreline of the splitter bed and align with the
edge of the fixed blade.
To adjust the alignment of the
Duocut blade, tighten or loosen
the nuts on the forward end of the
each of the cradle arms to increase
or decrease their tension.
To increase the tension, turn the
rear nut anti-clockwise to loosen it
then turn the front nut clockwise
to tighten it.
To decrease the tension, turn the
front nut anti-clockwise to loosen
it then turn the rear nut clockwise
to tighten it.

Maintaining The Duocut Blade Alignment In Use
When using your Duocut electric log splitter there will normally not
be a problem if the blades encounter a knot, as the log splitter
will simply stop splitting at the blade that encounters the knot and
continue splitting at the other blade.
