SET-UP
FILL HYDRAULIC OIL
The log splitter is shipped without hydraulic fluid in the reservoir. Fill the reservoir before your initial use.
1. Remove the vented reservoir dipstick, which is located next to the engine on top of the reservoir tank.
See Figure 14.
2. Slowly fill the reservoir with the recommended hydraulic oil until oil reaches the maximum line on the dipstick.
3. Replace the vented dipstick in the reservoir.
4. Start the engine and use the control handle to engage the wedge to the farthest extended position and then
retract. Repeat this operation for 12 cycles. Much of the fluid will be drawn into the cylinder and hoses.
Stop the engine and check the oil level as instructed below.
NOTE: Make sure the oil level is above the bottom line on the dipstick. If not, refill the reservoir to prevent
damage to the hydraulic pump. DO NOT overfill. Some fluid may overflow from the vent plug as the
system builds heat and the fluid expands and seeks a balanced level.
5. However, you MUST check the fluid level before each operation. If not filled, proceed with above steps.
Please select the oil based on the outside temperature
range the log splitter will be used in. Refer to the chart
provided to select the appropriate hydraulic oil.
