15. Maintenance
Attention!
Pull out the power plug before carrying out any main-
tenance work on the equipment.
When must the oil be changed?
First oil change after 50 operating hours, then every
250 operating hours.
Oil change
• Completely retract the splitting column.
• Put a container with a volume of at least 6 litres
under the splitter.
• Release the oil dipstick (8).
• Open the oil drain plug under the oil tank so the oil
can flow out.
• Afterwards, close the oil drain plug again.
• Remove the ventilation cap, pour in 4 litres of fresh
hydraulic oil using a clean funnel.
• Screw the oil dipstick in again.
Dispose of the used oil in a correct manner at a
public collection facility. It is prohibited to drop
old oil on the ground or to mix it with waste.
We recommend oil from the HLP 32 range.
Splitting spar
Before use, the spar of the splitter must be slightly
greased. Repeat this procedure every five operating
hours. Slightly apply grease of oil spray. The spar
may never run dry.
Hydraulic system
The hydraulic unit is a closed system with oil tank, oil
pump and control valve.
The system is complete when the machine is deliv-
ered, and may not be changed or manipulated.
