Only split the logs in the direction of the wood fibres.
The machine can be damaged if you try to split wood
across the grain.
Make sure that the fixing claw (14) is adjusted
according to the height of the log.
2. Hook the safety hook into the log lifter.
Remove split wood pieces from your direct working
area. This helps to avoid accidents.
Never try to split two logs at once.
Never try to remove or replace the log during the splitting
process.
Never try to force the splitting of the log by maintaining the
pressure for several seconds. This can lead to damage to the
machine.
Position the log again on the base plate and repeat the splitting
operation or put the log to one side.
How to release a jammed log?
There is a risk of knotted logs getting stuck during the splitting
process.
1. Switch machine off and disconnect the power.
2. Do not remove jammed logs with your hands.
3. Carefully move the stuck log with a crowbar backwards and
forwards to loosen it. Don´t damage the splitting pillar.
Never hammer on the stuck log.
Never use a saw to cut the stuck log out of the ma-
chine.
Do not enlist the aid of a second person - this is a
one-man job.
Finishing work:
Move the splitting blade to the highest position (retracted
state).
Switch off the machine and disconnect the mains plug.
Follow the care and maintenance instructions.
Maintenance and care
Before each maintenance and cleaning work
Switch off device.
Pull out power plug
Maintenance and repair work other than those described in this
chapter is only allowed to be carried out by service staff.
For maintaining and cleaning, removed security devices must
unconditionally be mounted properly and proved again.
Only use genuine spare parts. Other than genuine parts may
result in unpredictable damages and injury.
Be sure to have removed any tools from the machine after
completion of service work.
Wear protective gloves in order to avoid injury to the
hands.
Observe the following in order to keep the log splitter in
good working order:
Clean the machine thoroughly after you have finished
using it.
Remove any resin remains on the machine.
Check the oil level and change the oil as necessary.
Check the device for obvious defects such as
- loose fastening elements
- worn or damaged components
- correctly assembled and faultless covers and protec-
tive devices.
Check hydraulic hoses and hose connections regularly for
any leaks and firm fitting.
Lubricate the splitting column (18) regularly or oil it
using environmentally friendly spray oil.
Sharpening the splitting blade
After longer operating periods, for reduced splitting per-
formance or slight deformation of the cutting edge, grind
the splitting blade or sharpen it with a fine file (remove
burrs).
How do I check the oil level?
1. The splitting column must be in run-in state.
2.
Unscrew the oil dipstick
3. Clean the dipstick and the oil seal.
4. Screw the oil dipstick back into the opening and tighten it.
5. Unscrew the oil dipstick again.
The oil level must lie between MIN and MAX.
Replenish the same type of oil if the level is too low
(MIN or less).
6. Check the oil seal and replace it if it is damaged in any way.
7. Replace the dipstick into the oil reservoir.
Release the dipstick by a few turns to allow the air to
escape from the oil tank.
When should I change the oil?
The first oil change should be carried out after 50 operat-
ing hours, and then every 500 operating hours.
Two persons are required.
Changing the oil:
1. The splitting column must be in run-in state.
2.
Unscrew the oil dipstick.
3. Place a container under the log splitter to catch the old oil.
The container should have a capacity of at least 3.5 litres.
4.
Screw off the drain plug (29) to allow the oil to flow
out.
The entire oil will not drain but a residue will remain in
the oil circulation.
5. Insert the seal and drain plug again.
6.
Pour in the new hydraulic oil (Quantity, see "Technical
Data") using a clean funnel.
Fill in the oil slowly and not all at once.
Check the oil level in between.
