    GENERAL SAFETY ALWAYS keep the operator’s manual nearby for reference. Reread the manual periodically. ALWAYS keep all bystanders and pets a minimum of 10 feet away from your work area when operating this log splitter. Only the operator is to be near the log splitter during use. NEVER allow adults lacking proper instructions and understanding to operate this log splitter.
  • Page 6: General Repair

    ALWAYS block the wheels to prevent movement of the log splitter while in operation. KNOW how to stop the log splitter and disengage the controls before operating it. NEVER place hands or feet between the log and splitting wedge during forward or reverse stroke as this could result in serious injury or death.
  • Page 7: Maintenance & Safety

    MAINTENANCE & SAFETY The hydraulic system of your log splitter requires careful inspection along with the mechanical parts. Be sure to replace frayed, kinked, cracked or otherwise damaged hydraulic hoses or hydraulic components. NEVER check for leaks of hydraulic fluid with your hand. Fluid escaping from a small hole can be almost invisible. Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate skin causing SERIOUS INJURY or even DEATH. Leaks can be safely detected by passing a piece of cardboard over the suspected leak and looking for discoloration. NEVER remove the cap from the hydraulic tank or reservoir while the log splitter is running. The tank could contain hot oil under pressure which could result in serious injury.
