objects, or burns.
Remove hands

lever.
Hand activate

use any other body part, or a rope, cable, or other remote device to actuate the

Second person
. Many accidents occur when there is more than one person
involved in loading and operating the log splitter. Only one person should
operate the controls.
If a second person is assisting in loading logs, the operator
must NEVER actuate the split control lever until the assistant and all bystanders
are at least 10 feet away. NEVER allow an assistant to hold the log in place
while the operator actuates the Split Control Lever.
