MAINTENANCE
Inspect and maintain the log splitter before each use. If the log splitter has been used

adjusting, or repairing the splitter. Relieve system pressure by moving the split con-
trol lever back and forth several times.

can be a fire hazard. Clean shaft and debris from the engine cylinder head, cylinder
head fins, blower housing rotating screen, and muffler areas.
Avoid contact with hot muffler.
Debris on moving parts can cause excess wear. Clear debris from the slide
beam, wedge, and end plate.
