20 TRANSPORT
For easier transport over short distances, the log splitter is equipped with two wheels and a transport
handle.
21 OPERATION
Never adjust the pressure relief screw! The maximum splitting force of the log splitter
is factory set and the pressure limiting screw is sealed with adhesive to ensure that the
pressure does not exceed the preset maximum. Adjustment was made by a qualified me-
chanic using professional instruments. Unauthorized adjustment of the pressure relief
screw may result in serious injury or damage to the machine!
Preparatory activities
21.1
21.1.1 Greasing the splitting wedge
Apply a thin layer of grease to the splitting wedge of your wood splitter before starting work. This will
prolong the life of your tool.
21.1.2 Bleeding the hydraulic system
Never forget to loosen the breather screw before starting to operate the log splitter! Oth-
erwise, the air in the system will be released and compressed again and again, which will
destroy the seals of the hydraulic circuit and make the log splitter unusable.
To bleed the hydraulic system, loosen the bleed screw a few turns so that the air can
flow gently into and out of the oil tank.
The air flow through the oil tank should be visible during operation.
Important: Tighten the air-vent screw before each transport to prevent oil leakage.

Before moving the log splitter, make sure that the vent screw is tightened!
When using a crane for lifting (e.g. when loading the splitter onto
a truck), attach the hoist only to the intended places - see illus-
tration on the left.
Observe the applicable regulations regarding load securing!
Never hang the hoist on the transport handle!
Never transport the log splitter when loaded!
To move the log splitter over short distances, hold it by the
transport handle and tilt it slightly - see illustration on the left.
