led by means of the two operating

levers. There are three possible

actions:

− Press both operating levers

downward – The work cycle

starts, and the splitting knife

moves downward to split the log.

− Press only one operating lever

downward – The splitting knife

stops.

− Release both operating levers –

The splitting knife moves back

upward to its start position.

The splitting knife stops automati-

cally in the upper or lower position

(end of travel).

5. When the log is split, release both

operating levers – The splitting knife

then returns to its start position.

6. Remove the split pieces of wood,

and place them off to the side and

out of the immediate work area –

Now you are ready to continue split-

ting.

7. If you do not intend to continue

working immediately, turn off the

splitter by pressing the RED

switch (16).

6.2 Changing the start posi-

tion of the splitting knife

In addition to the height options provided

by the three pivoting support tables, you

can also change the upper start position

of the splitting knife to even better

accommodate the length of the log to be

split. With the upper start position for the

splitting knife set lower, the knife

requires less time to approach the work.

The results in a shorter work cycle.

Lowering the upper start position

1. Turn on the splitter (press the

GREEN switch).

2. Press both operating levers down-

ward – As soon as the splitting knife

has reached the new desired height,

release the right lever.

3. Switch machine OFF

4. Loosen the wing nut (18) and pull

out the control rod (17) until it

reaches the stop. Retighten the

wing nut.

The upper start position is now set

as desired. Continue to operate the

splitter as previously described.

Resetting the splitting knife to its

upper start position

1. Switch machine OFF.

2. Loosen the wing nut (18) and push

in the control rod (17) until it reaches

the stop. Retighten the wing nut.

The upper start position is now reset

at the maximum height.

Danger!

DANGER! Directly after stopping the

splitter, the hydraulic oil and hydrau-

lic system parts may be hot! Let the
