Electrical Requirements: The log splitter should be connected to a standard 230V ±10%/50Hz ±1Hz electrical supply which has protection devices of under-voltage, over-voltage, over-current as well as residual current device (RCD) with maximum residual current rated at 0.03A. Electrical connection rubber cables must comply with EN60245 which are always marked with symbol H 07 RN.

Following the diagrams above, carefully unpack the log splitter, using B and C to support package A. You should have the following contents:
Log Splitter Frame, Control Lever and Guard Assembly, Removable Support Table, Owner’s Manual.

to bleed the air out of the hydraulic system The cover of the oil tank should be loosened until air can move in tank filler should be detectable during operation. Failure to do this will keep the sealed air compressed in the hydraulic system and continuous air compression and decompression will blow the seals of the hydraulic system and cause permanent damage.
A Before moving the log splitter, make sure the oil tank cap is tightened to avoid any leakage. There are two wheels to facilitate moving. If using a crane to move the machine, lay the hoist around the housing, never the handle.

OPERATION
104cm
The splitter can accommodate logs up to 104cm in length. When cutting up limbs or large sections do not cut longer than 100cm. Place the support table into the position nearest to the log length - 52cm, 78cm or 104cm, and secure.
78cm 52cm
Work safely and save effort by planning your work beforehand. Position your logs so that they can be easily lifted onto the log splitter and, either stack close by or load onto a truck/trolley as soon as they are split. Inspect your logs and do not attempt to split logs containing nails, wire or debris which could damage the log splitter.
Before operation, apply a thin coat of grease to the surfaces of the ram. • Loosen the oil tank cover a few turns to allow air to move freely as described above. Re-tighten when you have •
• • •
Plug in the power cord, ensuring that it does not get in the way of the operating mechanism, and keep it out of the way of the operator’s feet. Start the motor - the wedge ram should rise to the highest position automatically. If operating in low temperatures, allow the engine to run for 15 minutes to preheat the oil. Check the operation of both control levers by lowering them so that the splitting ram lowers to approx 5cm above the highest table position. Release either lever and the splitting wedge will stay in the same position. Release both levers at the same time and the splitting wedge will return to the highest position.
To set the wedge ram stroke: • Move the splitting wedge to the desired position. The upper position of the ram wedge travel should be about 3-5cm over the logs to be split. • Turn off the engine. • Release the Handscrew (A). Raise the Adjusting Rod (B) until resistance is felt from the spring inside. Tighten the Handscrew. • Release both control levers and start the engine. • Check the upper position of the splitting wedge.

OPERATION, cont’d To operate: •
• • • •
Place a log on the Do not attempt to split a log at an angle and do not place the log across the splitter - always split in the direction of the grain. Adjust the Log Holders (A) to suit the diameter of the log. Hold the log closely with the clamping brackets in the control lever guards. Lower levers to start splitting. Releasing either of the levers stops the motion. Releasing both levers returns the splitting wedge to the upper position.
Hints and Tips: •
•
Never attempt to load the log splitter whilst the ram is in motion. Never try to split two logs at once. Keep your hands away from the splits and cracks which appear while the log is being split. Do not remove jammed logs with your hands - stop the engine and loosen the log with a downward strike on the log with a hammer. Do not force the tool and do not make alterations to the log splitter as this could be dangerous and invalidate your warranty. Do not try to split logs larger than recommended in the
