Assembly
Attach thewheels using theprovided fasteners.
Preparations
1. Place thelog splitter on afirm, level surface providing acomfortable working height. Ensure that there is
adequate lighting for thework to be carried out safely.
2. Plug themains lead into anelectrical socket, preferably via anRCD. Take care to position themains lead
where it will not hinder thework or be damaged by thework with thelog splitter.
3. Unscrew thebleed screw (7) 3 or 4 turns to ensure adetectable flow of air to theoil tank while thelog splitter
is in operation.
Setting the desired splitting length
Thelog splitter returns to theset splitting length automatically. Thesplitting length can be set by using areturn
stop which prevents thepiston from returning all theway.
1. Runthepiston out without apiece of wood, release thepower switch (11) but hold thepiston in
theextended position using thecontrol lever (1).
2. Undothereturn stopscrew.
3. Movethereturn stop to thedesired splitting length and tighten thescrew.
Operating the log splitter
1. Always place theleast knotty end of thelog toward
thewedge, always split along thegrain.
2. Position thelog in such away that it is stable, use
thelog retaining plate to help.
3. Start themotor by pressing and holding in thepower
switch (11).
4. Start thehydraulic ram by depressing thecontrol lever
(1) (with thepower switch pressed in).
5. Thepressure plate will force thelog against thesplitting
wedge.
6. Release thecontrol lever and thepower switch to
discontinue thesplitting operation once thelog has
been split.
Note: Thepressure plate will automatically stop at about
16 cm / 6 inches before it reaches thewedge.
• Note: If thewood does not start to split after 5 seconds despite full pressure, release thecontrol lever and
thepower switch and let thepressure plate return to thestarting position. Turn thelog through 90 degrees
and try to split it again.
• Note: Make sure that thebleed screw (7) is closed before thelog splitter is moved or put away, otherwise oil
could leak out.
• If thebleed screw is left open when thelog splitter is stored away, theoil will absorb moisture form theair.
This can cause thehydraulic system to rust from theinside.
• Note: Do not use just thetop half of thewedge for splitting, thelog splitter can be damaged by
unbalanced loading.

Maintenance
Changing the hydraulic oil
Thehydraulic oil should be changed at regular intervals (about every 150 hours)
as follows:
1. Make sure that thepressure plate is in its starting position before pulling out
theplug.
2. Remove thedrain bolt.
3. Tilt thelog splitter with thewedge end down over acontainer capable of
holding at least 4 litres of oil and wait until theoil has drained out.
4. Tilt thelog splitter theother way, so that themotor end is down and pour in
about 3.5 litres of good quality new hydraulic oil.
5. Wipe thedipstick, dip it into thetank with thelog splitter in thevertical
position, pull it out and read it. Theoil level should be between thetwo
grooves on thedipstick.
6. Clean thedrain bolt and screw it in back in tight.
7. Recheck theoil level regularly and top up theoil if necessary.
Sharpening the wedge
Thesplitting wedge should be kept sharp by filing it regularly with afine-toothed file.
Other maintenance
• Always unplug themachine before carrying out any adjustments or maintenance.
• Ensure that themains lead, plug and on/off switch are all in good condition and undamaged.
• Clean all theparts of thelog splitter with abrush and dry rags.
• Store themachine in adry, clean, non-corrosive environment and out of children’s reach. Make sure that
thetemperature of thestorage area does not fall to below −25°.
• Make sure that all thenuts and bolts are tightened, especially thenuts on thepull rods (by thehandle).
If the log jams
1. Stop thelog splitter.
2. Once thepressure plate has returned to its starting posi-
tion: place awooden wedge under theend of thelog
nearest thepressure plate.
3. Start thelog splitter and force thewedge under thelog
using thepressure plate.
4. Repeat theprocedure with alarger wedge if necessary.
Note: Never try to dislodge alog which is under pressure,
it could split and fly off with great force and damage thelog
splitter or cause aninjury.
