10.1 Checking the oil level (Fig. 15)
The hydraulic unit is a closed system with oil tank, oil
pump and control valve. Check the oil level regularly
before every use. Too low an oil level can damage
the oil pump. If the oil level is at the lower notch, then
the oil level is at a minimum. Should this be the case,
oil must be immediately added. The upper notch in-
dicates the maximum oil level. The machine must
be on level ground. Screw in the oil dipstick fully, to
measure the oil level.
10.2 Ventilation screw
Before operating your machine, the bleed screw (7)
should be loosened by some rotations until air can go
in and out of the oil tank smoothly. Failed to loosen the
bleed screw will keep the sealed air in hydraulic sys-
tem being compressed after being decompressed.
Such continuous compression/decompression will
blow out the seals of the hydraulic system and cause
permanent damage to your machine.
Before moving your machine, make sure the bleed
screw is tightened to avoid oil leaking from this point.
10.3 Splitting logs
Only split logs that have been sawn off straight. To do
this, proceed as follows:
1. Place the log plain onto the work table (9).
2. Your machine is equipped with Two-hands Con-
trol System that requires to be operated by both
hands of the user – left hand controls the control
lever (12) while right hand controls the push but-
ton switch (6).
3. Simultaneously push button switch (6) to start the
splitting action.
The log splitter will freeze upon absence of either
hand.
Never force your machine for more than 5 seconds by
keeping pressure on it to split excessively hard wood.
After this time interval, the oil under pressure will be
overheated and the machine could be damaged. For
such extremely hard log, rotate it by 90° to see wheth-
er it can be split in a different direction. In any case,
if you are not able to split the log, this means that its
hardness exceeds the capacity of the machine and
thus should be discarded to protect the log splitter.
10.4 Hoist limiting
It is reasonable to limit the hoist of the pressure plate
(10) for short splitting material. Thereto press the con-
trol lever (12) and the release button (6) and let the
pressure plate (10) move just in front of the splitting
material.
Release the release button now and mount the hoist
limiting ring (7a) to the housing and tighten it. After-
wards you can release the hydraulics lever.
The pressure plate will now be resting in the selected
position.
2. Ensure that the table and the protective guard are
level in relation to each other.
3. Undo the screw on the left of the foot.
4. Fasten the other end of the strut to the protective
guard using the Phillips head screw and nut, align
everything and tighten the screws rmly.
5. Now guide the open end of the strut (N) between
the screw and the foot bracket, tighten the screw
slightly.
6. Repeat the process on the other side.
7. Align both tables in relation to each other and use
the Phillips head screws and nuts (e) to afx them.
9.5 Installing the guard (E - J) (enclosed
accessories bag f) (g. 9 + 10)
1. Connect the guards (H) and (I) together, use two
Phillips head screws, clamping brackets and nuts
to afx it.
2. Fasten the guards (H, I, J) to the holes provided
for this. These are on the side of the table and
the protective guard. Fasten the guard with seven
Phillips head screws, clamping brackets and nuts.
Fit the protective guard (G) to the control lever
protection (11) and use a Phillips head screw and
a nut to afx it.
3. Now fasten the guards (E + F) on the top. Fasten
them with eight Phillips head screws, clamping
brackets and nuts.
4. Fasten the guards (E + F) together using two
Phillips head screws, clamping brackets and nuts.
m IMPORTANT!
You must fully assemble the appliance before using it
for the rst time!
10. Initial operation
Before start-up, place the splitter on a stable, level
and at workbench so that the splitter tray table sits
at a height of 72 - 85 cm. If the machine should slip
during splitting work, fasten it to the table with two
screws (M8 x X = thickness of the table). To do so,
use the two holes on the foot (16).
Make sure the machine is completely and expertly
assembled. Check before every use:
• the connection cables for any defective spots
(cracks, cuts etc.).
• the machine for any possible damage.
• the rm seat of all bolts.
• the hydraulic system for leakage.
• the oil level and
• the safety devices
