▪Before starting work, make sure you are familiar with all accessories and
operating controls and their functions.
▪Take into account the actual working conditions and the task at hand. Using
power tools for purposes other than those intended can lead to dangerous
situations.
▪Before use, check the connecting wire for any signs of damage.
▪Do not use electrical wires with defective switches.
▪If you use an extension wire, keep the connection between the powerwire and
the extension wire away from water, excessive heat, oil and sharp objects.
•Improper use of extension wires can cause the wood splitter to operate
inefficiently, which can lead to overheating. Make sure the extension wire is no
longer than 10m and its cross section is no smaller than 2.5mm to allow
sufficient current flow to the engine.
•Never pull on the power wire to move the splitter.
•Avoid using loose and improperly insulated connections. Connections must be
made with materials suitable for outdoor use.
•Never open the control panel or engine cover.
•Never attempt electrical repairs yourself.
•Never use the splitter on a slippery, wet, muddy or icy surface.
•Keep your work area clean and well lit. Congested areas increase the risk of
injury .
•Do not use the splitter in wet areas or expose it to rain.
•Check that the electrical circuit is properly protected and that it corresponds to
the power, voltage and frequency of the engine.
•The splitter must be connected to a grounded outlet.
•Never open the button box on the engine. If this is necessary, contact a
qualified electrician.
•Never, under any circumstances, remove, bend, cut, fit, weld or otherwise
modify the standard parts of the splitter. Modifications to your machine could
cause personal injury and property damage and will void your warranty.
•If the machine starts to make an unusual noise or vibration, stop the engine,
disconnect the power wire. Wait 5 minutes for the splitter to cool, then check

EN

or disconnecting the splitter.
•The plug must be disconnected from the electrical outlet in case of
maintenance, malfunction or when left unattended.
•The splitter must always be operated by one person. Other people should keep
a safe distance from the work area, especially when the splitter is in operation.
Never ask other people to help you release stuck wood.
•Make sure there are no nails or foreign objects in the logs to be cut. The ends
of the logs must be cut parallel. Branches should be cut at the same level as
the trunk.
•The floor/seating surface must not be slippery.
•Use the splitter only during the day.
•Always pay full attention to the movement of the log pusher.
•Do not attempt to load until the splitter has stopped.
•Keep hands away from all moving parts.
•Keep your hands away from the cracks and fissures that open in
the logs; They can snap shut and crush or amputate your
hands.
•NEVER remove jammed logs by hand.
•Never attempt to split logs larger than the dimensions indicated in the
specification table. This could be dangerous and damage the splitter.
•Do not leave the splitter until it comes to a complete stop.
•Unplug the splitter from the mains when in use, before making
adjustments, changing parts, cleaning or transporting the
splitter; Consult the technical user manual before servicing the
splitter.
•Use only original RURIS parts.
•Keep the splitter clean for optimal and safer performance.
•Before storage, disconnect the splitter from the power source.

•The splitter is equipped with two wheels for easy transport. Make sure that the
surface on which you transport the machine is not inclined, to avoid tilting over
and damaging it.
•Do not remove/override the safety devices of the splitter. Check regularly that
they are working properly.

6. USE
The hydraulicsplitteris only suitable forstationary operation. Logs must be splitvertically
in the direction of the strings.
The splitter may only be used, maintained and repaired by persons who are familiar with
it and who have been informed of the dangers associated with it.
The splitter must only be used with original accessories from the manufacturer.
Any other use is considered improper. The manufacturer assumes no responsibility for
any resulting damages, the user being solely responsible.
Place the log on the splitting table of the machine, hold it firmly with the two handles,
press both operating handles simultaneously. Once the splitter blade penetrates the log,
push the handles outward. This prevents pressure being exerted on the operating handle
plates.
Split the logs vertically, do not try to split horizontally or crosswise.

EN
17
7. PRE-OPERATION CHECKS
The splitter must be installed on a flat, stable and firm surface.
Make sure the splitter is fully and correctly assembled before each use and check that:
. The electrical cables and hydraulic hoses are in good condition (no cracks, cuts, etc.).
. The machine has damaged components.
. All screws are tight.
. There are leaks in the hydraulic system.
. The machine has enough hydraulic oil.
. The protective elements are in proper condition.
Venting the hydraulic system, Fig.5
Vent the hydraulic system before operating the log splitter as follows:
- Loosen the screw (A) a few turns so that the air can be released from the oil tank.
- Leave the screw open during operation.
- Close the cover again before moving the splitter.
- If the hydraulic system is not vented, the air will damage the seals and thus the splitter.
Start/stop, Fig.8/9
Open the protective cover (C).
Press the green button (A) to start the splitter.
Press the red button (B) to turn off the splitter.
Press the emergency stop (D) in case of emergency.

EN
18
Note: Before each use, check the operation of the on/off switch by turning the splitter on
and off.
Restart protection in case of power failure
The equipment will automatically shut down in the event of a power failure, accidental
unplugging, or triggering of a fuse. Press the green button on the switch to restart the
splitter.
At the end of the work:
. Bring the splitter blade to the down position.
. Release one of the operating handles.
. Stop the machine and disconnect the power.
. Tighten the vent screw.
. Follow general maintenance instructions.
Electrical connection
Regularly check the electrical connection cables for possible damage. When checking
the cables, make sure they are not connected to the mains.
If the power supply to which you connect the splitter is not equipped with a residual
current circuit breaker, use a portable safety circuit switch.
Mains supply voltage must be 230V/50HZ.
If you use an extension cord, it must have a minimum cross-section of 3x1.5mm2,
depending on its length.

8. TRANSPORT, STORAGE
Before transporting the splitter, the cylinder (No. 1) must be lowered from the upper
position to the lower position and fixed in the cylinder fixing part (No. 2).
Press the two operating handles down, the splitting wedge starts to descend until it
touches the cylinder fixing part, release one operating handle, loosen the No.4 screws
and the two inner No.3 screws, move the fixing piece No. 5, then release the two
operating handles, press the return support, the cylinder starts to descend, to the
corresponding position, then stop the splitter.
Returning the cylinder back to the working position.
Press the two operating handles down, the splitting wedge starts to rise, up to the upper
position, release one operating handle, insert the fixing piece No.5 and tighten the two
screws No.4, then tighten the inner screws No. 3, release the operating handles, then
press the return support, and the splitting blade starts to rise.
When the blade reaches the upper part, remove the cylinder fixing part (No.2).
