Why is my Yardworks Log Splitter log pusher moving jerkily?
If the log pusher on your Yardworks Log Splitter moves jerkily, makes unusual noises, or vibrates excessively, it could be due to insufficient hydraulic oil and too much air in the hydraulic system. Check the oil level and refill if needed.
What to do if oil leaks from my Yardworks 060-3895-8 Log Splitter?
If you notice oil leaking from your Yardworks Log Splitter, it could be due to a few reasons. Air might have been sealed in the hydraulic system during operation, in which case you should loosen the bleed screw by 3 or 4 rotations before operating the log splitter. Ensure the bleed screw is tightened before moving the log splitter. Also, check if the oil drain bolt with dipstick is tight and tighten it if necessary.
Why does my Yardworks 060-3895-8 not split logs?
Your Yardworks Log Splitter might fail to split logs due to several reasons. Ensure the log is correctly positioned according to the operation instructions. The log's size or hardness might exceed the machine's capacity, requiring you to reduce its size. Check if the wedge cutting edge is blunt and needs sharpening. There may be an oil leak that needs to be located. An unauthorized adjustment to the maximum pressure limiting screw could also be the cause.
