Safe handling with fuels ÂÀ Fuels and fuel vapours are inflammable and may cause serious injury on the skin or when inhaled. Therefore be careful and provide sufficient ventilation when handling with fuels. =" Stop the engine and allow the device to cool down before fuelling it. Do not smoke and avoid open flames when fuelling. Wear gloves when fuelling. Do not fuel in closed rooms (risk of explosion). Avoid spilling of fuel or oil. Clean the device immediately when you have spilled fuel or oil. Change your clothes immediately when you have spilled fuel or oil on them. “Make sure that no fuel can come into the soil. "_ Carefully close the tank cap after fuelling and check that it does not get loose during operation.

Transport Instructions À Move the splitting blade right down every time before the machine is transported or change to another work place . To transport the machine, grasp the handle and tilt the log splitter slightly towards you. The log splitter can be easily transported in this position. transport belt Make sure that the oil tank cap is securely tightened to prevent oil from leaking during transport. Before each change to another work place © Stop the engine, disconnect the spark plug connector and close the fuel valve. Before each transport: © Stop the engine, disconnect the spark plug connector, close the fuel valve and allow the engine to cool down. © Drain the fuel tank to prevent fuel spilling. © Secure the machine within or on the vehicle against getting out of place.

"Never ty 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 ofthe machine when itis 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 1300 mm. " © Check before splitting if the splitting column has been sufficiently lubricated to allow its trouble-free retraction and extension. 1 Whattype of logs can | split? Size of logs Length: max. 1300 mm Diameter: min. 120 - max. 400 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. — logs with a diameter of over Z 400 mm can be split ifthe fibres are smooth and open. 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. ra Operation Two-hand operation Never operate the log splitter with two people. À Never block the control handles (clamping claws).

1. Start the 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. (O) 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.

(O) 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. . Release the two control handies, the splitting blade returns to its initial position. © # you only release one control handle, then the splitting blade remains where itis. 1& 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

3. Release the second control handle.

4. Shorten the return path at the rod fitted to the side by

fixing the holding screw atthe necessary height.

1. Switch off the device.

2. Depending on the log still to be cleaved fix the table plate

in the upper or the table in the middle position.

3. Switch on the device and continue the splitting operation.

À Never try to split two logs atonce. Never try to remove or replace the log during the splitting process. © Never try to force the splitting of the log by maintaining the pressure for several seconds. This can lead to damage to the machine. Position the log on the table again and repeat the splitting phase, or put the log on one side. How to release a jammed log? There is à risk of knotted logs getting stuck during the splitting process.

1. Switch machine off and remove the spark plug connector.

2. û Do notremove jammed logs with your hands.

3. Carefully move the stuck log with a crowbar backwards

and forwards to loosen it. Don't damage the splitting pillar. À Never hammer on the stuck log. À Never use à saw to cutthe stuck log out of the machine. À Do not enlist the aid of a second person - this is a one- man job. Finishing work: > Bring the splitting blade to the lower position (run-in state). > Release one ofthe control handles. > Switch the machine off and disconnect the power. > Follow the care and maintenance instructions. Care and maintenance mn, Before each maintenance and cleaning work | — Stop the engine. — Remove the spark plug connector. CN Do not carry out maintenance work close to open CG flames. Risk of fire. For maintaining and cleaning, removed security devices must unconditionally be mounted properly and proved again. Use only original parts. Other parts can result in unexpected damages and injuries. Wear protective gloves in order to avoid injury to the hands. Be sure to have removed any tools from the machine after completion of service work. Maintenance and repair work other than those described in this chapter is only allowed to be carried out by service staff. To guarantee a long and reliable usage ofthe product carry out the following maintainance works regularly. @ observe the following in order to keep the log splitter in good working order: " Clean the machine thoroughly after you have finished using it. "Loose fastening elements. = Wom outor damaged parts. =“ Leaks from the fuel tank cap or fuel lines. (es 7

“Remove any resin remains on the machine. “_ Lubricate the splitting column regularly or oil it using environmentally friendly spray oil. “ Check hydraulic hoses and hose connections regularly for any leaks and firm fitting. " Correct assembly and faultless covers and protective devices. Sharpening the splitting blade After longer operating periods, for reduced splitting performance or slight deformation of the cutting edge, grind the splitting blade or sharpen it with a fine file (remove burrs).
