Oil dipstick
If the hydraulic system is not vented, the trapped air will
damage the seals and cause permanent damage to the log
splitter.
Mains connection
Compare the voltage given on the machine model plate
e.g. 230 V with the mains voltage and connect the
machine to the relevant and properly earthed plug.
Only use connection cables with sufficient cross-
sections.
Connect the machine via a 30 mA fault current safety
switch.
Fuse protection
400 V 3~
16 A
Switching on / off
Prior to every use, check the function of the
disconnection mechanism (by switching on and off).
Do not use any device where the switch can not be
switched on and off. Damaged switches must be
repaired or replaced immediately by the customer
service.
Switching on
Press
the
green
button.
Switching off
Press the red button.
Lock in case of power (zero-voltage
initiator)
The equipment will switch off automatically if there is a power
cut. Repress the green button to switch it on again.
Log splitter with 400 V 3~
Make sure that the motor turns in the correct direction
(see motor arrow), because operation in the wrong
direction damages the oil pump.
Switch on motor; the splitting blade automatically moves
to the highest position.
If the splitting blade is already in its highest position: grip
both operating handles and push them down. The
splitting blade moves downwards.
If the splitting blade does not move after the motor has
started, switch off the motor and change the direction of
rotation.
You can change
the direction by
placing a screw-
driver in the slot
provided in the
plug collar, and
adjust the correct
direction
by
moving to the left
or right applying
slight pressure.
Hydraulics
Never operate the machine in the event of any possible
danger from hydraulic fluid.
Ensure that the machine and working area are clean and
free of oil.
Danger of slippage or fire!
Check the hydraulic reservoir regularly to ensure that it
contains enough hydraulic oil (see "Care and
maintenance").
Capacity: approx. 9.5 litres

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Additional
The log splitter may only be operated by a single person.
The machine may only be operated by persons over the
age of 18 years, and who have read and understood
these operating instructions.
Wear protective equipment (safety goggles/mask, gloves,
safety shoes) to protect yourself from possible injury.
Never try to split logs containing nails, wire or other
similar objects.
Already split wood and wood chips create a dangerous
working area. The operator may stumble, slip or fall.
