manual abstract


ALWAYS use your hand to operate the control lever on the valve. NEVER use your foot, a rope or any extension device. NEVER move the log splitter while the engine is running. Shut off the engine even if you are leaving the log splitter for a short period of time. ALWAYS avoid contact with the muffler and other hot areas of the engine during operation to prevent burns. REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE SAFETY NEVER operate your log splitter when it is in poor mechanical condition or in need of repair. Periodically check that all nuts, bolts, screws, hydraulic fittings and hose clamps are tightened. NEVER alter your log splitter in any manner such as adding a rope or extenstion to the control lever or adding to the width or height of the wedge. Such alterations may cause your log splitter to be unsafe and will void the warranty. Perform all recommended maintenance procedures before using your log splitter. Replace all damaged or worn parts immediately. NEVER tamper with the engine to run it at excessive speeds. The maximum engine speed is preset by the manufacturer and is within safety limits. ALWAYS remove the spark plug wire before performing any service or repair on your log splitter. ALWAYS check the level of hydraulic oil and engine oil before operation. ALL replacement parts must meet manufacturer’s specifications. Page 4 HYDRAULIC SAFETY HYDRAULIC SAFETY NEVER check for leaks of hydraulic fluid with your hand. Fluid escaping from a small hole can be almost invisible. Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate skin causing serious personal injury or even death. Leaks can be detected by passing a piece of cardboard over the suspected leak and looking for discoloration. ALWAYS seek professional medical attention immediately if injured by escaping hydraulic fluid. Serious infection or reaction can develop if proper medical treatment is not administered immediately. ALWAYS be sure to relieve all pressure by shutting off the engine and moving the valve control handle back and forth should it become necessary to loosen or remove any hydraulic fitting. NEVER remove the cap from the hydraulic tank or reservoir while the log splitter is running. Hot oil under pressure could result in serious injury. NEVER adjust the hydraulic valve. The pressure relief valve on your log splitter is preset at the factory. Only a qualified service technician should perform this adjustment. FIRE PREVENTION NEVER operate your log splitter near a flame or spark. Hydraulic oil and gasoline are flammable and can explode. NEVER fill the gas tank while the engine is hot or running. Allow the engine to cool before refueling. NEVER smoke while operating or refueling your log splitter. Gas fumes can easily explode. ONLY refuel your log splitter in a clear area with no gas fumes or spilled gas. ALWAYS use an approved fuel container. ALWAYS replace the gas cap securely. If gasoline has spilled, move the log splitter away from the area of the spill and avoid creating any source of ignition until the spilled gas has evaporated. ALWAYS take a Class B fire extinguisher with you when operating this log splitter in dry areas as a precautionary measure against possible flying sparks. ALWAYS drain the fuel tank prior to storage to avoid the potential fire hazard. ALWAYS store gasoline in an approved, tightly sealed container. Store the container in a cool, dry place. NEVER store gasoline in the house or near a heating appliance. Page 5 IMPORTANT NOTE: IMPORTANT NOTE: TOWING SAFETY ALWAYS check all local and state regulations regarding towing, licensing, and lights before towing your log splitter. ALWAYS check before towing to make sure that the log splitter is correctly and securely attached to the towing vehicle and that the safety chains are secured to the hitch or bumper of the vehicle with enough slack to allow turning. Always use a Class I, 2” ball with this log splitter. NEVER carry any cargo or wood on your log splitter. NEVER allow anyone to sit or ride on your log splitter. ALWAYS disconnect your log splitter from the towing vehicle before operating it. ALWAYS be careful when backing up with your log splitter in tow. It could jackknife. ALWAYS allow for added length of your log splitter when turning, parking, crossing interesections and in all driving situations. NEVER exceed 45 mph when towing your log splitter. Towing the log splitter at speeds higher than 45 mph could result in loss of control, damage to the equipment, serious injury or death. Adjust towing speed for terrain and conditions. Be extra cautious when towing over rough terrain especially railroad crossings.
