6. The log splitter must have at least seven feet of clearance from combustible material. It needs to
be on a dry and level surface with good footing. Do not work on mud, ice, brush or snow. When
using the log splitter the work zone must be maintained at all times.
NOTE: Serious accidents can happen when other people are allowed inside the work zone.
Keep everyone else outside the work zone while operating the control lever.
7. Always wear safety gear, eye protection, gloves and work boots when operating the log splitter
8. Start the engine and make sure the log splitter is on level ground before operating.
NOTE: The hydraulic oil needs to be above 10°F (-12C°) before starting the engine. Cold
hydraulic oil can damage the hydraulic pump. If outdoor air temperature is below 32°F (0C°)
allow the log splitter to warm up by extending and returning the wedge several times before
splitting wood.
9. Put both support legs in the down position to prevent the log splitter from moving during
operation and block both tires.
10. Set the log splitter in horizontal position.
NOTE: HORIZONTAL position is used for lighter logs that can easily be loaded onto the beam.
Back injury can result from lifting logs onto the log splitter if proper lifting techniques are not
used.
