Oil changing
First oil change after 50 operating hours, then every 500
operating hours.
• Completely retract the splitting column.
• Put the log splitter elevated and put a bin with enough
capacity underneath the drain screw (B).
• Release the venting cap (A, Fig. 9).
• Release the drain screw (B) so the oil can come off.
• Reconnect the drain screw (B).
• Fill of new oil in with the help of a clean funnel.
• Refit the venting cap.
Dispose of the used oil in a correct manner at a pub-
lic collection facility. It is prohibited to drop old oil
on the ground or to mix it with waste.
We recommend the following hydraulic oils:
Aral Vitam gf 22
BP Energol HLPHM 22
Mobil DTE 11
Shell Tellus 22
or oils of same quality.
Do not use any other types of oil
as they would infu
ence the function of the hydraulic cylinder.
Splitting spar
Before use, the spar of the splitter must be slightly
greased. Repeat this procedure every five operating
hours. Slightly apply grease of oil spray. The spar may
never run dry.
Hydraulic system
The hydraulic unit is a closed system with oil tank, oil
pump and control valve.
The system is complete when the machine is delivered,
and may not be changed or manipulated.
Regularly check the oil level.
Too low an oil level damages the oil pump.
Regularly check the hydraulic connections and bolts for
tightness. Retighten if necessary.
Before undertaking any maintenance or checking work,
the working area must be cleaned. Keep the necessary
tools within the reach of your hand.
The intervals mentioned herein are based on normal
conditions of use. An excessive use of the machine
shortens the intervals accordingly.
Clean the panels, screens and control levers with a soft
cloth. The cloth should be dry or slightly humid with a
neutral cleaning agent. Do not use any solvents like al
cohol or benzene as they could damage the surfaces.
Store oil and grease outside the reach of unauthorized
personnel. Strictly follow the instructions on the bins.
Avoid direct contact with the skin. Rinse well after use.
