If the log splitter will not be used for longer than
two months, we recommend storing it. Be sure to
store the log splitter in a clean, dry, well-ventilated
area that is away from ignition sources and inac-
cessible to children.
Storage
Changing Hydraulic
Tank Filter
The hydraulic tank filter shown in
Figure 51
needs to be replaced every 500 operating hours,
but for convenience it should be done when you
change the hydraulic fluid (follow
Steps 1–13 from
Changing Hydraulic Fluid on Page 30).
The hydraulic tank filter can be purchased from
most local hardware stores, or replacement part
#PT27710040 can be purchased by contacting
the Grizzly Order Desk at (800) 523-4777.

Preparing Log Splitter for Storage

thoroughly with a clean, dry cloth. Do not use
water to clean log splitter, as it could damage
bearings or the engine.

components to prevent rust.
