7.1 - Resetting of the thermal cut-out of the electric motor
In the case of machines with electric motor, a protection device applied to the motor and integrated in the main on/off switch is tripped in the
case of overloads, sudden increases in voltage or accidental faults in the electrical system. In this case, before calling your authorised
service centre, wait a few minutes and then try to reset the main on/off switch. If the problem does not re-occur, the log splitter can be used
normally. If the cut-out is tripped again, do not try to reset it and contact your ahthorised service centre.
DISMANTLING OF THE LOG SPLITTER
The log splitter must be dismantled complying with all safety regulations, designed to prevent injury and damage.
All parts of the log splitter must be scrapped and disposed of according to current legislation where the machine is dismantled.
Pay particular attention when eliminating hydraulic oil which must not be disposed of in the environment in that it is highly pollutant and must
be disposed of according to legal prescriptions.
