Releasing one of the control parts leads to the machine
stopping immediately. Releasing both control parts
causes the pressure plate to retract.
If a piece of log to be split cannot be split within 5 sec-
onds, stop the process immediately. The log is proba-
bly too hard for the capacity of your machine. Turn the
log 90° and try again. Caution: Continuous operation
for more than 5 seconds can pose a risk of overheating.
You device may become damaged.
10.4 Hoist limiting
It is reasonable to limit the hoist of the pressure plate
(10) for short splitting material. Thereto press the con-
trol lever (12) and the release button (6) and let the
pressure plate (10) move just in front of the splitting
material.
Release the release button now and mount the hoist
limiting ring (7a) to the housing and tighten it. After-
wards you can release the hydraulics lever.
The pressure plate will now be resting in the selected
position.
10.5 Wrongly placed log (g. 13)
work table. Make sure logs will not twist, rock or slip
while being split. Do not force the blade by splitting logs
on the upper part. This will break the blade or damage
the machine.
Do not attempt to split several pieces of logs at the
10.6 Jammed log (g. 14 + 15)
will damage the machine or may launch the log and
cause accident.
1. Release both controls.
2. After the log pusher moves back and completely
stops at its starting position, insert a wedge wood
3. Start the log splitter to push the wedge wood under
the jammed one.
4. Repeat above procedure with sharper slope
wedge woods until the log is completely freed.
11. Electrical connection
The electrical motor installed is connected and ready
for operation. The connection complies with the appli-
cable VDE and DIN provisions.
4. Fasten the guards (E + F) together using two Phil-
lips head screws, clamping brackets and nuts.
m IMPORTANT!
You must fully assemble the appliance before using it
10. Initial operation
Make sure the machine is completely and expertly as-
sembled. Check before every use:
• the connection cables for any defective spots
(cracks, cuts etc.).
• the machine for any possible damage.
•
• the hydraulic system for leakage.
• the oil level and
• the safety devices
10.1 Checking the oil level (Fig. 17)
The hydraulic unit is a closed system with oil tank, oil
pump and control valve. Check the oil level regular-
ly before every use. Too low an oil level can damage
the oil pump. The oil level must be within the middle
mark on the dipstick. The machine must stand on level
ground. Screw in the oil dipstick fully, to measure the
oil level.
10.2 Ventilation screw
Before operating your machine, the bleed screw (7)
should be loosened by some rotations until air can go
in and out of the oil tank smoothly. Failed to loosen the
bleed screw will keep the sealed air in hydraulic system
being compressed after being decompressed. Such
continuous compression/decompression will blow out
the seals of the hydraulic system and cause permanent
damage to your machine. Before moving your machine,
make sure the bleed screw is tightened to avoid oil
leaking from this point.
10.3 Splitting logs
this, proceed as follows:
1. Place the log plain onto the work table (9).
2. Your machine is equipped with Two-hands Control
System that requires to be operated by both hands
of the user – left hand controls the control lever (12)
while right hand controls the push button switch (6).
3. Simultaneously push button switch (6) to start the
splitting action.
