REPLACING HYDRAULIC OIL
The hydraulic system is a closed system with oil tank, oil pump and
control valve. Check oil level regularly with dipstick. Low oil levels
can damage the oil pump. Oil Level should measure approx. 1 ~ 2
cm lower than the upper surface of the oil tank.
The oil should be completely changed once a year.
•
Make sure moving parts stops and the log splitter is unplugged
from the power source.
•
Make sure that no dirt or debris finds its way into the oil tank
•
Use a drain pan to aid in the removal of all used oil and
particles.
•
Remove oil drain plug to drain oil from the hydraulic
transmission system. Examine oil for metal chips as a
precaution to future problems.
•
Following an oil change, activate the log splitter a few times
without actually splitting with the Oil Filler/Air Bleed removed,
to disperse any trapped air in the hydraulic system.
The following hydraulic oils or equivalent Type 22 are
recommended for the log splitter’s hydraulic transmission
system:
o
HANDY PARTS Logsplitter Oil WPL110 (1L), WPL113 (5L)
o
SHELL Tellus 22
o
MOBIL DTE 11
o
ARAL Vitam GF 22
o
BP Energol HLP-HM 22
•
Clean the Dipstick and put it back into the oil tank.
•
Never exceed the maximum level. Empty oil if the maximum
level is exceeded until the oil level is between the minimum &
maximum marks on the dipstick.
•
The machine will operate as designed with oil in between the
minimum & maximum marks.
•
Clean the dipstick before replacing it. Make sure it is
tightened to avoid leaks during transit.
Read dipstick to determine SHARPENING WEDGE the maximum
and minimum of the oil level. Low oil can damage the oil pump.
Overfilling can result in excessive temperature in the hydraulic
transmission system.
