OPERATION
16.1
Preparatory activities
16.1.1 Greasing the splitting wedge
Apply a thin layer of grease to the splitting wedge of your log splitter before starting work. This will
prolong the life of the tool.
16.1.2 Bleeding the hydraulic system
Never forget to loosen the oil tank cap! Otherwise the air in the system will be
compressed and released again and again, which will destroy the seals of the
hydraulic circuit and make the log splitter unusable.
16.1.3 Checking the rotation direction of the motor –
for models ZI-HS16E, ZI-HS22EZ and ZI-HS30EZ only
Never run the motor in the wrong rotation direction. This will damage the pump and
void the warranty.

N O T I C E
Vent the hydraulic system before starting the log splitter.
To do this, loosen the cover of the hydraulic oil tank by a
few turns until the air can flow in and out gently.
The air flow through the oil tank should be visible during
operation.
To prevent oil from leaking out, the oil tank cover must be
tightly closed before each transport!
