Frequently Asked Questions - BTLS 610 B EINHELL

The engine does not start, what should I do?

Check that the circuit breaker-protector has not tripped. If so, let the engine cool down then press the circuit breaker. Also make sure the air vent screw is loosened during operation.

The log does not split correctly, why?

Check that the log is correctly positioned on the support and does not exceed the maximum dimensions (diameter 320 mm, length 1040 mm). If the splitting wedge is blunt, sharpen it with a fine-toothed file.

The splitting wedge no longer cuts, how to sharpen it?

Use a fine-toothed file to remove burrs and flat spots from the edges of the splitting wedge. Disconnect the device before any sharpening operation.

There is an oil leak, what should I do?

Check that the air vent screw is tightened during transport and that the oil drain plug is securely tightened. If the seal is damaged, contact an authorized distributor.

The push plate vibrates or advances in jerks, why?

This may be due to air in the hydraulic circuit. Check the oil level and bleed if necessary. If the problem persists, contact an authorized distributor.

Which hydraulic oil to use?

We recommend the following oils: SHELL TELLUS T22, ARAL VITAM Gf22, SP ENGERGOL HCP22, MOBIL DTE11 or equivalent. The capacity is 3.8 liters.

How to bleed air from the hydraulic circuit?

Loosen the air vent screw (fig. 33/pos. A) by about 5 turns before each use. After use, retighten it. This prevents vibrations and jerks.

A log is stuck, how to free it?

Completely extend the splitting wedge. Place a wedge-shaped piece of wood on the support and lower the wedge. Repeat with increasingly larger wedges. Never hit the log with a tool and do not put your hands near it.

How to safely transport the device?

Completely lower the splitting wedge, turn off the device and unplug the cable. Fold down the hand protection plates and secure them with the Velcro closure. Transport the device upright only by the handle.

What is the correct procedure to start the splitter?

Make sure the air vent screw is loosened. Turn on the device using the green switch. Wait for the engine to build up pressure. Then place the log, press both levers together and lower them to split.

5. Before starting the equipment

5.1 Fitting the switch/plug combination (Fig. 4) Install the switch/plug combination on the wood splitter as shown in Figure 4. Use the four screws (Fig. 2 / Item 13) for this purpose.

5.2 Fitting the wheels (Fig. 5-10)

Push a split pin (Fig. 2 / Item 16) through one of the holes in the axle (Fig. 2 / Item 14) and bend it as shown in Figure 6. Now slide a washer (Fig. 2 / Item 15) and a wheel (Fig. 2 / Item 7) over it (Fig. 7). Guide the axle through the holes provided for it at the bottom on the rear of the wood splitter (Fig. 8). Now place the remaining wheel and washer on the axle (Fig. 9) and secure it with the other split pin (Fig. 10).

5.3 Fitting the control lever and hand guards (Fig 11a-14)

Remove the pre-assembled securing screws from the two hand guards by undoing the nuts and removing the screws as shown in Figure 11a. Guide the hand guards and control level, as shown in Figure 11b, from the front into the wood splitter so that the ends of the control lever project through the recesses provided for it in the control rods (Fig. 12). Then secure the hand guards using the previously unassembled securing screws as shown in Figure 13 - 14a. The safety bars (Item 22) and guard plates (Item 19) are fitted to the hand guards (Item 3) as shown in Figures 14b-14d.

5.4 Fitting the trunk holding plates (Fig. 15a-18)

Undo the star nuts on the two trunk holding plates (Fig. 2/Item 11) by turning these counter-clockwise as shown in Figure 15a. You now have the trunk holding plates, star nut A, washer B and fastening screw C (Fig. 15b). Push the trunk holding plates through the guide slots in the hand guards, as shown in Figure 16. As you do this, ensure that the oval holes in the trunk holding plates line up with the securing holes. Insert the securing screws A from below through the oval holes in the trunk holding plates and the holes in the hand guards as shown in Figure 17 and secure then by fitting the washers B and star nuts C to them from above (Fig. 18). The trunk holding plates can be adjusted to the trunk thickness using the oval holes.

5.5 Fitting the chain to adjust the splitter height (Fig. 19-21)

First undo the lock nut on the chain hook (Fig. 19). Secure the chain hook to the hole provided for it next to the chain holder behind the splitter as shown in Figure 20. The chain is designed to limit the height of the splitter. To do this, move the splitter approximately to the required position, switch off the machine (Fig. 29) and attach the chain in the appropriate position (Fig. 21).

5.6 Fitting the trunk support (Fig. 22-26)

The trunk support can be installed at three different heights (Fig. 22): Position A: Max. log length 520~mm Position B: Max. log length 770~mm Position C: Max. log length 1040~mm There are three attachment devices at different heights on the wood splitter for this purpose. Fit the trunk support (2) as shown in Figures 22 - 26.

5.7 Filling with hydraulic oil

The wood splitter must be filled with oil before it is started for the first time. Refer to section 10 "Changing the hydraulic oil"

6. Operation

6.1 Plan your work area.

To work in safety and save yourself a lot of effort, plan your work area in advance. Position the trunks where they are easy to reach. Allocate an area for stacking the split wood or load it onto a wheelbarrow or other means of transportation positioned to one side.

6.2 Prepare the trunks for splitting.

This splitter can hold trunks with a maximum length of 1040mm and a maximum diameter of 320mm . If you cut branches or large logs, never cut any lengths which exceed those specified. Never attempt to split fresh trunks. Dried timber which has been in storage is much easier to split than fresh (moist) wood and will not stick so often.

6.3 Lay out the power cable.

Make sure that you have a suitable socket outlet available and, if necessary, a suitable extension cable.

6.4 Setting up the splitter securely in an upright position.

The wood splitter may only be placed on a flat surface. To ensure the equipment's stability it is necessary to screw the wood splitter to a concrete floor with the two steel dowels (Item 28). Select a location at which the wood splitter can be operated permanently. Place the wood splitter in the desired position and mark the drill holes. For secure anchoring of the steel dowels, drill a hole with a diameter of 12mm and a depth of 60mm into the concrete floor at each of the fixing points (Fig. 27b and 27c/ Item 27). Push the steel dowels into the drilled holes, place the wood splitter in position and screw it to the floor. The wood splitter may only be operated at ground level. Do not place any material under the wood splitter to adjust the height of the machine or to attempt to improve its stability. If the wood splitter is on an angle and/or wobbly, move it to a different location. Do not operate the machine on soft surfaces such as a lawn or gravel since the machine could sink or tip over during operation.

6.5 Ventilate.

The ventilation screw (Fig. 33 / Item A) must always be undone during operation to ensure that the machine operates correctly. Undo the ventilation screw by 5 turns before you start the machine and then tighten it again after using the wood splitter.

See information label (Fig. 39).

6.6 Place the trunk in the wood splitter.

Only wood that has flat edges can be split in the machine. Position the trunk you wish to split vertically and centrally on the trunk support so that the splitter is over the center of the trunk. Adjust the trunk holding plates using the knurled screws so that the trunk can be held perfectly. Never attempt to split a piece of wood that is not secure, to split it at an angle or to split wood with angled edges. This can result in injury to the user and damage to the machine.

6.7 Two-hand operation.

Switch on the machine using the green ON switch (Fig. 28 / Item A). Move the cover over the ON/OFF switch (Fig. 29) to ensure that the Emergency Stop function is active. Wait a few seconds whilst the electric motor gets up to speed and the required pressure builds up in the hydraulic pump. The machine is ready for use when the splitter is fully extended.

Proceed as follows to split the trunk

Press the control levers together so that the trunk you wish to split is held secured by the trunk holding plates (Fig. 30)
Now push the two control levers down at the same time (Fig. 31). The splitter moves downwards and presses the wood you wish to split against the trunk support, splitting it as it does so. When the trunk has been split, release the control levers and the splitter will move upwards again. Important. Continue to hold the split wood with the trunk holding plates. It may be that long pieces of wood will not be split completely and will therefore move upwards with the splitter. These pieces of wood must therefore be split in several stages. You can start, for example, with the trunk support at its lowest position (Fig. 22 / Item C), continue by splitting the wood in the central position (Fig. 22 / Item B) and then finish splitting the wood with the trunk support in its highest position (Fig. 22 / Item A).

Switch off the machine at the red OFF switch (Fig. 28 / Item B) after completing the work or to adjust the trunk support.

Important!

If the trunk fails to split immediately, never attempt to force it to split by maintaining the pressure for more than a few seconds. This may damage the machine. It is far more advisable to try and reposition the trunk on the splitter or to remove the trunk altogether and place it to one side.

6.8 Stack while you are working.

By doing this you will make sure that you have a safe area in which to work because you will keep it clear of obstacles and prevent any risk of tripping over or of the power cable becoming damaged.

GB

6.9 Do not forget to retighten the ventilation screw (Fig. 33/Item A) when you have finished your splitting work.

6.10 Releasing a jammed trunk

1. Retract the splitter fully.
2. Position a wedge-shaped piece of wood on the trunk support.
3. Move the splitter downwards. The jammed trunk will be pushed forward by the wedge-shaped piece of wood.
4. Repeat this process with larger and larger wedges until the jammed is released.

Important!

Never hammer against the stuck trunk or place your hands anywhere near the trunk when trying to release it.

NEVER ASK ANYONE ELSE TO HELP WHEN TRYING TO RELEASE A TRUNK WHICH HAS BECOME STUCK.
NEVER ATTEMPT TO RELEASE THE TRUNK BY HITTING IT WITH A TOOL.

7. Cleaning, maintenance and ordering of spare parts

Always pull out the mains power plug before starting any cleaning work.
