Training
Please read carefully the Operating and Servicing
Instructions. Familiarise with the controls and proper
working of the appliance. You must know how the
appliance works and how to switch the controls
immediately off.
Never let children work with the appliance. Never let adults

Use as designated
The product (log splitter) that you have bought has solely
been designed for the following purposes:
The splitter has solely been designed to split saw-cut logs
of 52 cm in maximum length and 25 cm in maximum width
along the fibre.
This appliance must not be used to perform other works
than those for which the appliance has been designed and
which are described in the Operating Instructions.
Any other use is conflict with the designation. The
manufacturer is not responsible for any indirect damages

Assembly
Caution! The appliance needs to be switched off and
unplugged before servicing, cleaning and assembling. The
same procedure must be applied if the feeder cable is
damaged, cut or entangled.
System voltage must be adhered to: the source voltage
must correspond to the details on the appliance type label.
An extension cable with a too small conductor cross-
section significantly reduces the appliance performance. At
least 3 x 1,5mm² for cables within a length of 25m and at
least 2,5mm² for cables with a length exceeding 25m.
Caution! Extension cables not meeting the given
requirements must not be used. The extension cable, plug
and joint must be watertight and approved to be used
outdoors.
Cable joints must be dry and must not lie on the floor.
If a cable reel is used, it needs to be unwound to full
extent.
When the log splitter is delivered, some parts have been
disassembled for transport purposes.
Screws, nuts and distance rings are in a separate plastic
bag. The assembly is easy if instructions are followed
(pic. 2).
Operation
Loosen the bleed screw (2-3 turns) before starting to
split (pic. 1/14).
The screw must necessarily be tightened for
transport purposes.
Check the oil level in the splitter every time you are going
to use it.
Put the splitter to a vertical position.
Loosen the oil gauge plug using a socket wrench and put it
out to see the oil level.
The oil level must be between the two oil gauge marks.
Log dimensions
Log dimensions appropriate for the appliance and
mentioned in the "Technical specifications" are just of an
indicative nature. A small log may be difficult to split if
knotty.
If the log is not to be split immediately, it is very
important the splitting pressure is not applied for a long
time. That would cause the compressed oil to be quickly
overheated, which would subsequently damage the pump.
Step-by-step instructions
Plug the electric log splitter in.
When putting the feeder cable down, make sure it does
not lie over the telescopic beam or near the splitting knife;
places with a risk of damage or breaking also need to be
avoided.
Put the log on the beam. Guiders will help keep the knife in
the centre of the log. If the log does not fit well or tightly, it
needs to be turned around.
