5.1.B - Switching on/off of the log splitter with premium graded fuel engine (PS 26 B&S - PS 42 B&S)
Set the switch (A on fig.5a, page 2) on the right of the motor to "ON".
•
Switching on: Turn the throttle control knob (C on fig.5b) to "CHOKE" if the engine is cold or to "RUN" if the engine is still warm.
•
Move the accelerator knob (D on fig.5c) completely to the left (tortoise).
•
Grasp the engine start-up knob (B in fig.5a) and holding it tightly pull it firmly. Repeat this operation until the engine starts. During this phase, be
very careful not to slip or cause injuries or distortions. Once the engine is running, the telescopic mast moves to the fully open position.
•
Slowly move the accelerator knob (D on fig.5c) to the right (hare).
•
After a few minutes from cold starting, move the throttle control knob (C on fig.5b) from "CHOKE" to "RUN".
•
Use the log splitter as explained in par.5.2.
•
If you are leaving the log splitter unattended or if you have finished working, switch off the log splitter using the switch A on fig.5a.
WARNING
When working and after switching off the log splitter, never touch any part of the engine as this could cause burns. After
switching off the machine, wait until the engine has cooled before performing any operation.
Refer to the attached manual for any other information regarding the BRIGGS & STRATTON engine.
5.1.C - Switching on/off of the tractor-driven log splitter (TS 26 GC - TS 42 GC - TS 26 IT - TS 42 IT)
•
Connect the log splitter to the power source (see chapter 4 "OPERATING THE MACHINE", page 22) and then check that the machine is firmly
positioned on the ground.
•
Start the tractor making sure it does not move. Start the log splitter by activating the power system (power take-off, cardan shaft, etc.).
•
Use the log splitter as explained in paragraph 5.2.
•
If you leave the log splitter unattended, switch off the transmission system of the tractor.
•
After using the log splitter, switch off the transmission system, switch off the tractor. Before moving the tractor, lift the log splitter to a sufficient
height so that it does not hit the ground.
WARNING
Never move the tractor with the power source of the log splitter activated or with the log splitter still on the ground.
5.2 – How to use the log-splitter
•
Place a log on the log retention brackets, making sure it is not larger than the dimensions indicated on page 2, fig.2.
•
Operate the control levers WITH BOTH HANDS, pulling them towards you: the log pusher will start to push the log against the wedge, and it will
split after a few seconds.
WARNING: Letting one or both of the control levers go will cause the log pusher to stop where it is. Pushing both levers away from you will cause
the log pusher to reverse direction returning to its initial position, maximum distance from the blade. The two levers will remain blocked in the return
position, enabling the operator to have both hands free and the levers will automatically return to the central position when the log pusher reaches
its end stop.
WARNING: The log splitter exercises a pressure of about 12 tonnes on the log, more than enough to split even very seasoned wood. Should a log
prove to be too hard for the machine to split it, do not force the cylinder for more than 30 seconds as the hydraulic oil could overheat and damage
the hydraulic circuit. In this case, remove the log and try to split it in another position (turning it 90°) otherwise reject it.
WARNING
It is also important that the operator works only in the permitted work area as shown in fig.1 on page 2 (pos.16) and that no
other person remains within a 5 metre radius of the machine when it is being used.
