Possible malfunction
when cleaving logs: The
log to be cleaved is not
cleaved right through, jams
on the cleaving blade and
is pulled up during the
blade's return movement. It
is no longer possible to
release the log manually.
In this case, proceed as
follows:
1. Switch off the device.
2. Depending on the log
still to be cleaved fix the table plate in the upper position
or swing aside the table.
3. Switch on the device and continue the splitting operation.
Never try to split two logs at once.
Never try to remove or replace the log during the splitting
process.
Never try to force the splitting of the log by maintaining
15
the pressure for several seconds. This can lead to damage
to the machine.
Position the log on the table again and repeat the splitting
phase, or put the log on one side.
How to release a jammed log?
There is a risk of knotted logs getting stuck during the
splitting process.
1. Switch machine off and disconnect the power.
2. Carefully move the stuck log backwards and forwards to
loosen it.
Never hammer on the stuck log.
Never use a saw to cut the stuck log out of the
machine.
Do not enlist the aid of a second person - this is a one-
man job.
