Operation
g. Repeat steps b through f for the other logs.
h. When the splitting of all logs is complete
or if the machine will be unattended for any
period of time, unplug the cord from the
power supply (fig. 8).
i. To avoid oil leakage, tighten the bleed screw
when moving the log splitter or when the log
splitter is no longer in use (fig. 8).
4. FREEING A JAMMED LOG
• Release both the switch and the hydraulic control lever.
• After the log pusher moves back to its starting position
and comes to a complete stop, insert a piece of wood
or wood wedge that fits on the splitter behind or under
the jammed log (fig. 9).
• Simultaneously hold down the switch using your right
hand and push the hydraulic control lever to the right
using your left hand to start the log splitter. The piece
of wood will move forward freeing the jammed log.
• If the log is not freed, repeat this procedure with a
steeper sloped piece of wood until the log is free.
WARNING! Do not try to knock the jammed log off the log splitter
(fig. 10). Doing so will damage the machine or cause the log to fly out
of the splitter which could result in an injury.
