7.1 - How to free a jammed log (Fig.7, page 3)
Should the log you wanted to split become jammed onto the wedge, remove it as follows.
Fig. 7/A: Retract the log pusher completely (push two hands control levers away from the operator).
Fig. 7/B: Take a previously split wedge of wood and insert it crosswise, underneath the jammed log. Now operate the log pusher so that the wooden
wedge is pressed fully underneath the jammed log. This should be enough to release the log.
Fig. 7/C: If the log is still jammed, remove the wooden wedge and put a whole log underneath. Now operate the log pusher until the jammed log is freed.
Fig. 7/D: If the log is not split when the log pusher has completed its run, retract it and place another log in front of the jammed log, Now operate the
log pusher: the second log will push against the jammed one and split it.
