Before working with the log splitter, vent the hydraulic
system.
• Release the venting cap 6 by a few revolutions so
the air can escape from the oil tank.
• Leave the cap open during the operation.
• Before you move the log splitter, close the cap again
in order not to lose any oil.
If the hydraulic system is not vented, the enclosed air
will damage the gaskets and with it the complete log
splitter.
