Maintenance
• Wipe the dipstick clean and insert it back into the oil tank to check for the oil level.
• Remove the dipstick and check for oil level. The level of the refilled oil should be between
the 2 grooves of the dipstick. If not, add or decrease the amount of oil in the tank until the
level is between the 2 grooves of the dipstick.
• After verifying that the oil level is
correct, insert the bolt with dipstick
back into the oil tank. Tighten the
drain bolt in order to avoid leakage,
and then place the log splitter back
to its normal horizontal position.
Note:
• Check the oil level regularly and before starting the log splitter. Ensure that the oil level is
between the 2 grooves on the dipstick. When the oil level is below the lower groove, refill
the oil tank before operating the log splitter.
• Dispose of used oil only at an authorized collection point, or follow the regulations that
are in effect in your area.
Maintenance
SHARPENING THE BLADE
After using the log splitter for some time, sharpen the blade or wedge using a fine-toothed
file. Smooth out any burns or crushed areas along the cutting edge.
CLEANING
• Use a clean cloth to remove dirt, dust, oil, and grease. Use a soft brush on the splitting
area and the motor ventilation area to remove any wood debris.
• DO NOT immerse the log splitter in water or other cleaning agents.
STORAGE
• Turn off the motor and unplug the log splitter from the power supply.
• Close the bleed screw to prevent oil leakage and clean any debris from the log
splitter before storing.
• Store the log splitter in a cool, dry location that is not accessible to children and
other unauthorized persons. Secure the log splitter and make sure it cannot fall
over and cause damage or injury.
