REPLACING THE HYDRAULIC OIL
Replace the hydraulic oil in the log splitter after every 150 hours of use.
When replacing the hydraulic oil, it is recommended to use one of the following:
• 10W AW32
• ASLE H-150
• ISO 32
• Check and make sure that all moving parts have
come to a complete stop.
• Turn off the log splitter and unplug it from the power
supply.
• Using the support leg handle, stand the log splitter on
the end with the wheels.
• Unscrew the oil drain bolt with dipstick and remove it.
• Tilt the log splitter onto the support leg over a 7-liter
container in order to drain the hydraulic oil (fig. 11).
WARNING! To avoid possible electric shock, always disconnect
log splitter from the power supply and tighten the bleed screw before
cleaning, making adjustments, or conducting maintenance work on
the log splitter.
Maintenance
• Using the support leg, tilt the log splitter
back onto the motor side.
• Using a funnel (not provided), refill the
oil tank with the proper volume of fresh
hydraulic oil (fig. 12).
