SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ATTENTION!
Acquaint yourself with all warnings and safety instructions and with operation instructions for the power
tool.
ATTENTION!
Not adhering to warnings or safety instructions may result in injury by electrical shock, a fire and/or serious
injury.
ATTENTION!
Store all warnings and safety instructions in a practical location for future reference.
Note: The term "power tool" in all hereafter provided warnings is defined as an electric power tool powered
from the power grid (via a flexible power cord).
Safety in the work area
Keep the work area tidy and well illuminated. Untidiness and dark locations in the workplace are sources of
accidents.
Do not use the power tool in environments where there is a explosion hazard, where there are flammable
liquids, gases or dust. The power tool generates sparks which could ignite dust or vapours.
When using the power tool, prevent children and other persons access to the power tool. If you become
distracted, you may lose control over the power tool.
Safety when working with power tools
The plug on the flexible power cord must correspond to the power socket outlet. Never modify the plug in any
way. Never use any socket adapters with power tools that have a safety earth grounding connection. Plugs
that are not damaged by modifications and that correspond to the power socket will limit the danger of injury
by electrical shock.
Prevent your body from coming into contact with grounded objects, such as pipes, central heating radiators,
stoves and refrigerators. The risk of injury by electrical shock is greater when your body is connected to the
ground.
Do not expose the power tool to rain, dampness or wetness. The entry of water into the power tool increases
the danger of injury by electrical shock.
Do not use the flexible power cord for other purposes. Never carry or pull the power tool by its power cord or
pull the plug out of the socket by the power cord. Protect the power cord against heat, grease, sharp edges
and moving parts. Damaged or tangled power cords increase the danger of injury by electrical shock.
If the power tool is used outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Using extension cords
designed for outdoor use limits the risk of injury by electrical shock.
If you will be using the power tool in a damp environment, use a residual current device (RCD) in the power
supply circuit. The use of a residual current device reduces the risk of injury by electrical shock.
Note: The "residual current device" (RCD) may be substituted for by the term "ground fault circuit
interrupter" (GFCI) or "earth leakage circuit breaker" (ELCB).

connected and used correctly. The use of such equipment may limit the danger posed by the created dust.
Using power tools and their maintenance
Do not overload the power tool. Only use power tools that are appropriate for the work being performed.
Appropriate power tools for the given task will do the job better and more safely.
Do not use power tools that cannot be turned on and off with a switch. Any electric power tools that cannot
be controlled using a switch are dangerous and must be repaired.
Before adjusting the power tool, before replacing accessories or if you will not be using the power tool, pull
the power plug out of the power socket. These preventative safety measures limit the danger of accidentally
turning on the power tool.
When not used, store the power tool out of children’s reach and do not permit person not acquainted with
the power tool or these instructions to use the power tool. A power tool in the hands of inexperienced users is
dangerous.
Perform maintenance on the tool. Check the adjustment of moving parts and their movement, focus on
cracks, broken parts or any other circumstances that may threaten the proper operation of the power tool.
If the power tool is damaged, have it repaired before using it again. Many accidents are caused by
insufficiently maintained power tools.
Keep cutting power tools clean and sharp. Correctly maintained and sharpened cutting power tools are less
likely to get stuck on material or to jam and they are also easier to control.
Use power tools, accessories, working tools, etc. in accordance with these instructions and in such
a manner as prescribed for the specific power tool with respect to the given work conditions and the type
of work being carried out. Using power tools for tasks other than for which they are designed may lead to
dangerous situations.

SPLITTER OPERATION
11. SPLITTER OPERATION
Before operation, fix the machine using Bolts M10×30 on level
ground.
1. Plan your work site. Work safely and save effort by
planning your work before hand. Have your logs positioned
where they can be easily reached. Have a site located to
stack the split wood or load it onto a nearby truck or other
carrier.
2. Prepare the logs for splitting. This splitter accommodates
logs up to 55cm in length. When cutting up limbs and large
sections, do not cut sections any longer than 55cm.
ATTENTION!
Do not attempt to split green logs. Dry, seasoned logs split
much more easily, and will not jam as frequently as green
wood.
3. Applying a thin coat of grease to the surfaces of the ram
before operation will lengthen the durability of the ram.
Grease
