4.5.1.
Max pressure was set before the log splitter ex work and the max pressure limiting screw is sealed with glue to ensure the log splitter
works under pressure no more than 4 tonnes (LS370H.V2) and 5tonnes (LS520H.V2). The setting was done by qualified mechanic
with professional instruments. Unauthorized resetting will cause the hydraulic pump fail to output enough splitting pressure or ResUlT
IN SERIOUS INJURY AS WELL AS DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE.

5.1.1.
This log splitter is a home use model. It is designed for operating under ambient temperatures between +5°C and 40°C and for
installation at altitudes no more than 1000m above M.s.l. The surrounding humidity should be less than 50% at 40°C. It can
be stored or transported under ambient temperatures between -25°C and 55°C. Before operation, put the log splitter on a 72-85cm
high, stable, flat and level work bench or high stand and make sure it is bolted to the ground. Fix the support leg of the log splitter with
two bolts M8X35(A) on to a worktop between 720mm and 820mm above the ground (fig.14).
Warning! Must only be used correct height. log splitter must be securely mounted so that the hold-to-run two-hand control device
‰
shall be located so that the height control actuators shall be between 850 mm to 1650 mm from the ground.

Splitting - tWo HanDS operation (fig.12)
5.2.1.
This log splitter is equipped with "ZHB" control system that requires to be operated by both hands of the user: left hand controls the
hydraulic control lever while right hand controls the push button switch. The log splitter will freeze upon absence of either hand. only
after both hands release the controls, the log pusher starts to return backward to the starting position (fig.13).
5.2.2.
Trigger type lock-out device is adopted to avoid accidental Hydraulic Control lever pushdown. To operate the Hydraulic Control lever,
draw the Trigger backward with the index finger before pushing the Hydraulic Control Lever forward.
Warning! never force the log splitter for more than 5 seconds by keeping pressure on it to split excessively hard wood.
‰
5.2.3.
After this time interval, the oil under pressure will be overheated and the machine could be damaged. For such extremely hard log,
rotate it by 90° to see whether it can be split in a different direction. Always set logs firmly on the log retaining plates and work table.
Make sure logs will not twist, rock or slip while being split.
