Splitting lever
Splitting force and splitting speed are controlled by the splitting lever. The splitting lever is simply
raised or lowered for operation.
The first half stroke of the splitting lever is idle speed; press the
splitting lever to the half stroke for maximum splitting force at
slower speed to split the log at the beginning or particularly hard
and seasoned logs.
Press the splitting lever to the end for faster speed at less splitting
force to finish the splitting or to split usual logs.

so that it lies flat on its face. Press the left

fixing claw can be adjusted to fit logs with
different heights.
2.
Hold the left press lever. Meanwhile, move
the splitter wedge down by pressing the right
splitting lever to the half stroke to split the
log slowly first and then press it to the end
until the log is completely split.
