1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Keep these instructions for future reference
1) The log splitter must always be used by one operator only.
2) Nobody must be allowed to use the log splitter unless they have read the instruction manual
and have been instructed in the regulations to follow for correct and safe use.
Operators must receive necessary training and instructions.
3) The machine must be used by adults only. Use of the log splitter by apprentices of not less
than 16 years of age must be supervised by an adult authorized to use the machine.
4) Never wear loose, unbuttoned clothing which may become trapped in moving parts.
5) Check that the logs to be split are free from nails or wire, which may fly up or damage the
machine, branches must be cut off flush with the trunk.
6) Never try to split logs larger than those indicated in the technical specifications. This could be
dangerous and may damage the machine.
7) Break wood in the direction of the grain, do not place wood across the log splitter and leave it
in that position for splitting; it may be dangerous and may seriously damage the machine.
8) Never attempt to cut two logs at once, one may fly up and hit you.
9) If the log moves away from the blade, retract the blade and turn the log through 900.
10)Do not attempt to load the log in the log splitter while the blade is in motion, you could get
trapped and injured.
11)Keep your hands well away from any splits and cracks which open in the log; these may close
suddenly and crush or amputate your fingers.
12)Never force the log splitter for more than 5 seconds keeping the cylinder under pressure in the
attempt to split excessively hard wood. After this time interval, the oil under pressure is
overheated and the machine could be damaged. It is thus better to stop and rotate the log by
900to see whether it can be split in a different position. In any case, if you are not able to split
the log, this means that its hardness exceeds the capacity of the machine and thus that log
should be discarded so as not to damage the lop splitter.
13)Do not force the blade by pushing the log on the upper part, as this can cause the blade to
break or damage the body of the machine. Always set the log on the guides.
14)Never leave the machine unattended while it is running. If you leave the machine, even for a
short time, remove the power supply or any possible cause of accidental start-up.
15)The log splitter must never be used by an operator who is under the influence of alcohol, drugs,
medicines, or who is tired. A clear mind is essential for safety.
16)Never request the assistance of another person to help you remove a jammed log.
17)Do not use machines with electric motor if natural gas, petrol fumes or other inflammable
vapors are present.
18)Check that the electric circuit is adequately protected and that it corresponds with the power,
voltage and frequency of the motor, check that there is a ground connection, and a regulation
differential switch upstream.
19)Check on the functioning of the machine.
20)Never open the switch box on the motor. Should this be necessary, contact a qualified
electrician.
21)Make sure that the machine and the cable never come in contact with water.
22)Treat the power cable with care, do not attempt to move the machine by pulling the cable, do
not yank the cable to unplug it; keep the cable away from excessive heat, oil and sharp objects.
23)Never leave the machine unattended with the power supply “on”, also disconnect the power
cable when not in use, when carrying out maintenance work, when changing attachment or
moving the machine.
24)Before starting work, hydraulic pipes and hoses shall be inspected and the stopping devices
shall be tested.
25)Stop the machine before cleaning or making adjustments.
26)The hazards may arise from particular characteristics of wood when being split (e.g. knots, logs
of irregular shape etc.).
27)Operator must receive necessary training and instruction from a qualified person before
3

handling the tool.
28)Use the tool only for the intended use. Misuse (such using material other than log) can damage
the tool and cause accidents and injuries.
29)The splitting operation of the machine is designed to be activated by one person. While there is
the possibility that additional operators could be working with the machine (e.g. for loading and
unloading), only one operator should activate splitting operations;
30)The machine shall not be used by children
31)Wear suitable personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety footwear close fitting
clothing and suitable work gloves, eye protection and hearing protection.
32)Tests of the machine's safety devices before use the tool. If safety devices do not work
properly, do no use the tool and bring it to a qualified technician for inspection and reparation.
33)The working area shall be free from obstructions; before installation and operation, clear the
working area. Keep the working area free from obstructions, e.g. logs, split wood, etc.
34)Do not reach into the splitting zone.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING! Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.
WARNING! Connect the main leads to a standard 230V±10% (50Hz±1Hz) electrical supply
which has protection devices of under-voltage, over-voltage, over-current as well as a
residual current device (RCD) which maximum residual current rated at 30mA.
Replacing cables or plugs
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Immediately throw away old cables or plugs when they have been replaced by new ones. It is
dangerous to insert the plug of a loose cable in the wall outlet.
Using extension cables
1) As a supply for this machine always use an unloaded line and/or extension with conductor of at
least 2.5mm2and protected with a 20A fuse. Be sure that this extension cable is no longer than
10 meters. Excessively long cables or inadequate section can cause voltage drops that prevent
motor from developing its full power.
2) Only connect your machine and/or extension cable to earthed electricity mains.
Grounding
In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock. Use switch
socket with grounding please.
INTENDED USE
This log splitter is only intended to be used to split logs! Serious injury may occur if this log splitter
is used for any other purpose.
RESIDUAL RISKS
The machine is built according to the current state of technology and generally recognized safety
standards. However, individual residual risks may occur when working with the machine.
Risk of injury to fingers and hands from the cleaver, in the event of improper guidance or support
of the wood.
Risk of injury from the ejection of the work piece, in the event of inappropriate support or guide.
Exposure to electric current, when using inappropriate electric connecting cables.
Furthermore, unapparent risks may remain, despite of all the measures taken.
Residual risks can be minimized, if the safety instructions, the proper use and the
operating instructions are observed.

4.5 Fitting the tray table (fig. 9)
Push the tray table (3) into the holder provided.
IMPORTANT! You must fully assemble the appliance before using it for the first time!
5. OPERATION
Before start-up, place the splitter on a stable, level and flat workbench so that the control button
sits at a height of 72 - 85 cm.
Make sure the machine is completely and expertly assembled. Check before every use:
the connection cables for any defective spots (cracks, cuts etc.).
the machine for any possible damage.
the firm seat of all bolts.
the hydraulic system for leakage.
the oil level and
the safety devices
5.1 Checking the oil level (Fig. 10)
The hydraulic unit is a closed system with oil tank, oil pump and control valve. Check the oil level
regularly before every use. Too low an oil level can damage the oil pump. The correct oil level is
approx. 10 to 20 mm below the oil tank surface.
If the oil level is at the lower notch, then the oil level is at a minimum. Should this be the case, oil
11

must be immediately added. The upper notch indicates the maximum oil level. The machine must
be on level ground. Screw in the oil dipstick fully, to measure the oil level.
5.2 Ventilation screw
Before operating your machine, the bleed screw should be loosened by some rotations until air
can go in and out of the oil tank smoothly. Failed to loosen the bleed screw will keep the sealed air
in hydraulic system being compressed after being decompressed. Such continuous
compression/decompression will blow out the seals of the hydraulic system and cause permanent
damage to your machine.
Before moving your machine, make sure the bleed screw is tightened to avoid oil leaking from this
point.
5.3 Splitting logs
Only split logs that have been sawn off straight. To do this, proceed as follows:
1) Place the log plain onto the work table.
2) Your machine is equipped with Two-hands Control System that requires to be operated by both
hands of the user –left hand controls the control lever (1) while right hand controls the push
button switch (6).
3) Simultaneously push button switch (6) to start the splitting action.
The log splitter will freeze upon absence of either hand.
Never force your machine for more than 5 seconds by keeping pressure on it to split excessively
hard wood.
After this time interval, the oil under pressure will be overheated and the machine could be
damaged. For such extremely hard log, rotate it by 90°to see whether it can be split in a different
direction. In any case, if you are not able to split the log, this means that its hardness exceeds the
capacity of the machine and thus should be discarded to protect the log splitter.
5.4 Wrongly placed log
Always set logs firmly on the log retaining plates and work table. Make sure logs will not twist, rock
or slip while being split. Do not force the blade by splitting logs on the upper part. This will break
the blade or damage the machine.
Do not attempt to split 2 pieces of logs at the same time. One of them may fly up and hit you.
5.5 Jammed log
Do not try to knock the jammed log off. Knocking about will damage the machine or may launch
the log and cause accident.
1. Release both controls.
2. After the log pusher moves back and completely stops at its starting position, insert a
wedge wood under the jammed log.
3. Start the log splitter to push the wedge wood under the jammed one.
4. Repeat above procedure with sharper slope wedge woods until the log is completely freed.

Lubricate slide rails with grease.
When must the oil be changed?
Change the oil after 150 working hours.
Oil change (fig. 11)
1) Move the log splitter into the start position and pull out the mains plug.
2) Remove the tray table beforehand.
3) Undo the oil drain screw with dipstick (K) and put it to one side.
4) Turn the log splitter on the support leg side as shown in fig. 11 over a 4,5 liter capacity
container to drain the hydraulic oil off. Recycle carefully! Dispose of the waste oil in an
environmentally friendly manner!
5) Turn your machine on the motor side as shown in Fig. 10 to refill about 4,2 l fresh oil.
6) Clean the oil drain screw with dipstick (K) and screw it back in to the machine that is still in
a vertical position. Unscrew it again; there should be an oil film between the notch.
7) Now screw the oil drain screw with dipstick back in tightly. Afterwards start splitting without
actually splitting log several times.
8) Check the oil level one last time and top up with a little oil if required.
Dispose of the used oil in a correct manner at a public collection facility. It is prohibited to
drop old oil on the ground or to mix it with waste.
