Maintain and storage
Before performing maintenance, the log splitter must be placed in maintenance mode.
1. Turn off engine.
2. Move the control valve handle forward and backward to relieve hydraulic pressure.
After performing maintenance, make sure all guards, shields, and safety features are put
back in place. Failure to follow this warning can result in serious injury.
Refer to the engine owner's manual for engine maintenance.
