Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
DO NOT use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased
risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
DO NOT expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
DO NOT abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use
of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

OPERATION
1. Read the Operator’s Manual completely before attempting to use this log splitter.
2. Do not allow anyone to operate your log splitter who has not read the Operator’s Manual or has not been instructed on the
safe use of the log splitter.
3. Never allow children or untrained adults to operate this machine.
4. Never leave the machine unattended with the electromotor running.
5. Never operate the machine when under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medication
6. Many accidents occur when more than one (1) person operates the log splitter. If a helper is assisting in loading logs to be
split, never actuate controls until helper is clear of the area.
7. Never allow anyone to ride on the machine during use or during operation.
8. Never transport cargo on the log splitter.
9. Always operate the log splitter with all safety equipment in place and all controls properly adjusted for safe operation.
10. High fluid pressures are contained in hydraulic log splitters.
Pressurized hydraulic fluid escaping through a pin hole opening can puncture skin and cause sever bleeding and result in
blood poisoning. Therefore, the following instructions should be heeded at all times.
– Be sure to confirm all hose connections and hose clamps are tight before each use. It is possible for connections to vibrate
loose over time
– Do not operate the unit with frayed, kinked, cracked or damaged hoses, fittings, or tubing.
– Stop the electromotor and relieve hydraulic system pressure before changing or adjusting fittings, hoses, tubing, or other
system components.
– Do not adjust the pressure settings of the pump or valve. The factory presets are tested for optimal system performance.
Tampering with or modifying these settings will render your product warranty nu,, and void.
– Do not check for leaks with your hand. Leaks can be detected by passing cardboard or wood over the suspected area. Look
for discoloration. If injured by escaping fluid, see a doctor at once. Serious infection or allergic reaction can develop if proper
medical treatment is not administered immediately.
11. Keep the operation zone and adjacent area clear for safe, secure footing.
12. Always keep hands and feet clear of moving parts.
13. Log splitters should be used only for splitting wood. Do not use for other purposes unless the manufacturer provides
attachments and instructions for such purposes.
14. When loading a ram-type log splitter, place your hands on the sides of the log, not the ends. Never place your hands or any
part of your body between a log and any part of the log splitter
15. Only split wood WITH the grain. NEVER split perpendicular to the grain.
16. On ram-type log splitters, never attempt to split more than one log at a time unless the ram has been fully retracted and a
second log is needed to complete the splitting of the first log.
17. On ram-type log splitters when the logs are not squared, the longest portion of the log should be rotated down and the
most squared end placed against the ram.
18. Use only your hand to operate the log splitter controls, never kick the handle with your feet.
Add Hydraulic Oil
DO NOT remove the hydraulic oil fill cap when the electromotor is running or hot. Hot oil can escape causing severe burns.
Always allow the log splitter to cool completely before removing the hydraulic oil cap.
High fluid pressure and temperatures are created in the hydraulic log splitters. Hydraulic fluid will escape through a pin-size
hole opening and can puncture skin.
Inspect hydraulic system regularly for possible leaks.
Never check for leaks with your hand while the system is pressurized. Seek medical attention immediately if injured by escap-
ing fluid.
To check hydraulic oil level, insert the dipstick into fill neck until it stops. Remove and read level. Do not thread dipstick into fill
neck when checking oil.
When the outdoor temperature is below 32°F , Dexron III transmission fluid can be used.
1. Make sure the log splitter is on a flat, level surface.
2. Remove the dipstick from the oil tank.
3. Add 1.6gallon of hydraulic oil - AW32 / AW46
4. Check hydraulic oil level with oil dipstick. The oil level should be on the dipstick.
5. Tighten the dipstick.
6. Start electromotor.
7. Extend and retract the cylinder to purge air from the hydraulic system. Cylinder motion should be smooth and continuous.
8. Shut-off electromotor.
9. Hydraulic oil can be added appropriately when the cylinder thrust is insufficient.
For safety reasons, hydraulic oil is not included in the package.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
1. Always shut off the power source while repairing or adjusting the splitter except as recommended by the manufacturer.
2. Clear debris from movable parts, but only when the power source is shut off.
3. Check to be sure all nuts and bolts are tight to assure the equipment is in safe working condition prior to each usage, and
periodically during usage. Electromotor vibration may shake screws and bolts loose during operation.
