c. Use a suitable tool to slacken star grip (A). Set the stroke adjusting rod so that it
will act as a stop at the desired position. After that, re-tighten star grip (A).
d. Release both operating levers or restart the motor
e. Check your newly set positions.
8. Now, place vertically under the splitting blade the log to be split. Make sure that the log is
even and does not fall over on the splitting table. Never try to split canted logs.
9. Adjust the two levers, depending on the
log diameters.
10. Hold the log with both levers to guaran-
tee a stable standing position of the log.
Then move both levers down to split the
log. Releasing one of the two levers will
induce the splitting blade to stop. If you release both levers the splitting blade will auto-
matically move to its topmost position. (Refer to Fig. 8.)
11. Immediately remove the split log parts from your working area and pile them up, if neces-
sary. Thus you can reduce the riskof working accidents.
12. After you have finished your work, allow the splitting blade and the arm move to their
topmost positions (parking positions). Then stop the motor and unplug the machine from
your power supply source. Allow the machine to cool down. After that, you should clean
and, if necessary, lubricate your machine. This log splitter may only be stored in vertical
position and at a dry and clean place. Ensure that the oil tank cap is well closed and that
no oil will emerge during storage.

Always split your logs along the
grain. Never load the logs cross-
wise to the grain, as this can lead
to severe damage to the mechani-
cal and hydraulic systems.
