The 8T log splitter can accommodate logs up to 106cm in length and with diameter from
70 to 400mm.
The support table 3 positions allow the splitter to work on logs of 58cm, 77cm or 106cm
in length.
Insert the support table in the position nearest to the log length, and secure the support
table with the locking hooks.
When cutting up limbs and large sections, do not cut sections any longer than 100cm.
6.
Apply a thin coat of grease to the surfaces of the ram before operation will lengthen the
durability of the ram.
7.
Route the power cord.
Route the cord from the power source to the splitter in a way that safeguards against
tripping on the cord, or the cord becoming damaged during the work session.
Protect the power cord from impacts, pulling or corrosive materials.
8.
Open the Air Bleed.
Loosen the oil tank cover a few turns whenever the splitter is being used.
Retighten this cover when you finished.
9.
While operating under extremely low temperature, let the log splitter run under no load
for 15minutes to preheat the hydraulic oil
10.
Reminder: The log splitter is strictly designed for one-man operation. Never allow more
than one person approach and work on the machine at the same time.
6.4- Placing the log on the splitter
Prepare the wood to be split by pre-cutting it to the maximum cutting capacity of the splitter
and make sure that the wood is cut straight.
Put the wood on the splitter so as not to endanger you (e.g. tripping hazard).

Set the log firmly on the log retaining plates and work table (4).
Make sure the log will not twist, rock or slip while being split.
Do not force the blade by splitting the log on the upper part. This will break the blade or
damage the machine.

a) Place the log vertically and sitting flat onto the support table (4).
Be sure the wedge and support table will contact the log squarely on the ends.
Never attempt to split a log at an angle.
b) Adjust the Log Holders Claws (A) according to the diameter of the log to obtain most
comfortable Control Levers angle (Fig.21).
c) Hold the log with clamping brackets closely in the control lever guards (Fig.26).
Never open clamping brackets while ram is moving (Fig.26)
