Maintenance and care

Maintain your log splitter carefully. Clean
the machine after each use. To guarantee
the best possible and safest performance
keep your log splitter clean. Lubricate the
machine according to the instructions.
Check all seals, pipes and couplings for
leakage before you start your log splitter.
Keep the operating levers and the mains
switch clean, dry and free of oil or grease.
Cleaning the Log Splitter
5. Unplug the power cord.
6. Use a moist cloth to clean the
plastic parts. Do not use any
cleaning agents, solvents or
pointed objects.
7. Use a soft brush to remove dust
deposits from the motor ventila-
tion slots and from moving parts
at regular intervals.
8. Apply some oil to all moving parts
at regular intervals.
Hydraulic Oil Change
IMPORTANT: The oil tank is factory-filled
with high-grade viscosity class 20 hydrau-
lic oil. Take waste oil to a public receiving
depot or observe the relevant disposal
regulations of your country where this log splitter is used. Do not dispose of the oil into sewerage
systems, into the soil or into water bodies of any kind.
The hydraulic system is a closed system consisting of an oil tank, an oil pump and of control
valves. Too low an oil level can damage the pump. The oil level should not be lower than 1 – 2 cm
above the lower surface of the oil tank.
Change the oil completely once per year.
•
Ensure that no foreign particles will get into the oil tank.
•
Properly dispose of the waste oil after each oil change.
•
Allow your log splitter to run idle for a few minutes after each oil change before you place
it into operation again.
The following oil grades are suitable for this log splitter:

• Always disconnect your power supply
source from your machine before you
begin to release any jammed logs.
• Do not allow any other persons to as-
sist you in releasing a jammed log.
• When releasing a jammed log, never
stick into your log splitter any means
such as foreign objects of any kind.
Please
• do not maltreat the jammed log with
your feet or with any objects either, as
a sudden release of the jammed piece
will cause the log pusher to give way
which can lead to personal injuries or
damage to your machine, respectively.
• All safety rules contained in the "Gen-
eral Safety Instructions" chapter shall
apply to any of the interventions de-
scribed before. The manufacturer will
not be liable to any injuries of persons
or animals or to damage to property as
a result of improper use of this ma-
chine or of non-observance of the safe-
ty regulations.
