Do not change the engine governor settings or over-speed the
engine. The governor controls the maximum safe operating
speed of the engine.
Do not run the engine at a high speed when you are not
working.
KEEP VISITORS AND CHILDREN AWAY:
The log splitter
must be always operated by one person only. Other people
should keep a safe distance from the work area, especially
when the log splitter is under operations. Never use another
person to help you with freeing jammed logs.
INSPECT YOUR LOG:
Make sure there are no nails or foreign
objects in logs to be split. The ends of the logs must be cut
square. Branches must be cut off flush with the trunk.
DON’T OVERREACH:
Floor must not be slippery.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Never stand on
log splitter. Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or
if the cutting tools is unintentionally contacted. Do not store
anything above or near the log splitter where anyone might
stand on the tool to reach them.
AVOID INJURY FROM UNEXPECTED ACCIDENT:
Always
pay full attention to the movement of the log pusher.
Do not attempt to load the log on until the log pusher has
stopped. Keep hands out of the way of all moving parts.
PROTECT YOUR HANDS:
Keep you hands away from splits
and cracks which open in the log; They may close suddenly
and crush or amputate your hands.
Do not remove jammed logs with your hands.
