adopted to avoid accidental Hydraulic
Control Lever pushdown. To operate
the Hydraulic Control Lever, draw the
Trigger backward with the index finger
before pushing the Hydraulic Control
Lever forward.
After this time interval, the oil under
pressure will be overheated and the
machine could be damaged. For such
extremely hard log, rotate it by 90° to
see whether it can be split in a different
direction. In any case, if you are not
able to split the log, this means that its
hardness exceeds the capacity of the
machine and thus that log should be
discarded to protect the log splitter.
Always set logs firmly on the log
retaining plates and work table. Make
sure logs 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.
The splitting force and speed are
governed by the 2-stage control lever.
Push the lever in the 1st stage about
half way for faster speed at less splitting
force to split usual logs; Push the lever
in the 2nd stage all way for maximum
splitting force at slower speed to split
particularly hard and seasoned logs.
These stages can be shifted by simply
raising and lowering the lever.
Never force the log splitter
for more than 5 seconds
by keeping pressure on it
to split excessively hard
wood.
