left or right applying slight
pressure.
Hydraulics
Never operate the machine in the event of any possible
danger from hydraulic fluid.
Ensure that the machine and working area are clean and free
of oil.
Danger of slippage or fire!
Check the hydraulic reservoir regularly to ensure that it
contains enough hydraulic oil (see "Care and maintenance").

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Additional
The log splitter may only be operated by a single person.
The machine may only be operated by persons over the age
of 18 years, and who have read and understood these
operating instructions.
Wear protective equipment (safety goggles/mask, gloves,
safety shoes) to protect yourself from possible injury.
Never try to split logs containing nails, wire or other similar
objects.
Already split wood and wood chips create a dangerous
working area. The operator may stumble, slip or fall. Always
keep the working area neat and tidy.
Never place the hands on or near any moving parts of the
machine when it is switched on. Maintain a safe distance from
the log, the ram and the wedge in order to protect your hands
from injury.
The machine should only be used for splitting logs with a
maximum length of 1350 mm.
Check before splitting if the splitting column has been
sufficiently lubricated to allow its trouble-free retraction and
extension.
What type of logs can I split?
Size of logs
Length:
max. 1350 mm
Diameter:
min. 80 – max. 450 mm
The log diameter is a recommended guideline figure, because:
− thin logs can be difficult to split if they contain knots or if the
fibres are too strong.
Do not try to split green logs. Dry logs are much easier to split,
and do not cause jams as often as green (damp) wood.
Hardwood tend to bursting: Exercise utmost caution!
Operation
Two-hand operation
Never operate the log splitter with two people.
Never block the control handles (clamping claws).

1. Press the green switch on the electric motor. Wait a few
moments until the motor has reached its operating revolutions
and the required pressure has been built up in the hydraulic
pump.
Check the direction of the motor in the log splitter with
three phase motor (400 V 3~), because operation in the
wrong direction damages the oil pump.
At temperatures below –5° C, let the log splitter run for at
least 15 min. in neutral to heat up the oil.
2. Place the log on the log splitter table.
Only split the logs in the direction of the wood fibres.
3. Hold the log tight with the clamping claws.
4. Press both operating handles down simultaneously:
The splitting blade falls down and splits the log.
5. Release the two control handles, the splitting blade returns to
its initial position.
If you only release one control handle, then the splitting
blade remains where it is.
Special instructions for splitting logs:
Preparations:
The logs to be split should be cut to the maximum dimensions.
Ensure also that the logs are cut straight and square.
Place the log properly on the log splitter, so as not to cause any
risk of stumbling or falling to the operator.
Adjusting the stroke height
In case of shorter wood pieces the efficiency can be increased by
shortening the return of the splitting cutter.
1. Place the log on the
splitting table and press
the two control handles
to bring the splitting
blade down to approx. 2
cm above the log.
2. Release one control handle so that the blade stays in this
position.
