changing or adjusting fittings, hoses, tubing, or other system
components.
iii. Do not adjust the pressure settings of the pump or value.
iv. Never use your hand. Leaks can be located by passing
cardboard or wood over the suspected area. Look for
discoloration. If injured by escaping fluid, see a doctor at once.
Serious infection or reaction can develop if proper medical treatment
is not administered immediately.
g) Keep the operator zone and adjacent area clear for safe,
secure footing.
h) Log splitter should be used only for splitting wood. DO NOT use
for other purposes unless the manufacturer provides attachments and
instructions.
i) Make sure the log splitter is on a level surface. Block the splitter
as required to prevent unintended movement.
j) Always operate the splitter from the manufacturer's indicated
operator zone.
k) Logs to be split on ram-type units should be cut as squarely as
possible.
l) The machine owner should instruct anyone assisting him or her
in safe log splitting operation.
m) Always operate the log splitter with all safety equipment in
place and all controls properly adjusted for safe operation.
n) Always operate the log splitter at manufacturer's
recommended speed.
o) When loading a ram-type log splitter, place your hands on the
sides of the log not at the ends. Never place your hands or any
part of your body between a log and any part of the log splitter.
p) On ram-type log splitters, never attempt to split more than one log
at a time unless the ram has been fully extended and a second log is
needed to complete the separation of the first log.
q) On ram-type log splitters on which the logs are not square, the
longest portion of the log should be rotated down and the most
square end placed against the ram.
r) Clear debris from moving parts but only when the power source
is shut off.
s) Use only your hand to operate the log splitter controls. Always
unplug from the power source while repairing or adjusting the splitter
except as recommended by the manufacturer.
t) Circuit capacity and fuses:
i. Use only an electrical circuit having adequate capacity as
recommended by the log splitter manufacturer.
ii. "Blowing" a fuse or tripping a circuit breaker is usually a warning
that you are overloading the machine or have too many devices
taking power from the circuit, or both. Do not install a higher capacity
fuse!
u) Learn and understand all controls and the proper use of the
equipment.
v) Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use to
instruct other users. If you loan someone this tool, loan them these
instructions also.
