Upon lower oil level, oil refilling is required.
Warning: Never mix oil with general waste!
Used oil must be disposed of according to
current regulations in the country where
the machine is used.
Sharpening the wedge
After using the log splitter for some time,
sharpen the wedge of the log splitter using a
fine-toothed file and smooth any burrs or
crushed area along the cutting edge.
FREEING A JAMMED LOG
1) Release both controls.
2) After the arm is back at the starting
position, insert a wood wedge under
the jammed log.
3) Start the log splitter to push the wood
wedge completely under the jammed
log.
4) If the log is still jammed, repeat the
above steps as needed using a
thicker angled wood wedge until the
log is completely freed.
NOTE: Never try to knock the jammed log
off the splitter. Doing so may damage the
tool or may cause the log to fly up and hit
someone causing injury.
DISPOSAL

2012/19/EU for Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment and its implementation
