Once removed from wedge with log dislodger, split wood from opposite end or in another location. Vertical Position 1. Pull the horizontal beam lock out to release the beam and pivot the beam to the vertical position. 2. To lock the beam in the vertical position, pull out on the vertical beam lock and rotate it to secure the beam. See Figure 4-1. 3. Stand in front of the unit to operate the control handle and to stabilize the log. See Figure 4-3. Horizontal Position 1. Pull the vertical beam lock out and rotate it down. See Figure 4-1. Pivot beam to the horizontal position. The beam will lock automatically in horizontal position. 2. Stand behind the reservoir tank to operate control handle and to stabilize the log. Operating Tips Always: 1. Use clean fluid and check fluid level regularly. 2. Use an approved hydraulic fluid. Approved fluids include Dexron® III / Mercon® III automatic transmission fluid, a 10 Weight AW hydraulic oil or Pro-Mix™ AW-32 Hydraulic Oil. 3. Use a filter (clean or replace regularly). 4. Use a breather cap on fluid reservoir. 5. Make sure pump is mounted and aligned properly. Before Each Use 1. Remove the dipstick and check hydraulic fluid level. Refill if necessary. Approved fluids include Dexron® III / Mercon® III automatic transmission fluid, a 10 Weight AW hydraulic oil or Pro-Mix™ AW-32 Hydraulic Oil. 2. Check engine oil level. Refill if necessary. 3. Fill up gasoline if necessary. 4. Lubricate the beam area where splitting wedge will slide with engine oil. Do not use grease to lubricate. Make sure to lubricate both the front and the back of the beam face. 5. Attach spark plug wire to the spark plug. Using the Log Splitter 1. Place the log splitter on level, dry ground. 2. Place the beam in either the horizontal or vertical position and lock in place with the appropriate locking rod. 3. Block the front and back of both wheels. 4. Place the log against the end plate and only split wood in the direction of the grain. 5. To stabilize the log, place your hand only on sides of log. Never place hand on the end between the log and the splitting wedge. 6. Only one adult should stabilize the log and operate the control handle, so the operator has full control over the log and the splitting wedge. 4 Operating Your Log Splitter WARNING Never remove partially split wood from the wedge with your hands.
