Full Product Manual

Plug the machine into a 3 pole outlet and start the
motor.
Grab the round side of the log and place it firmly
against the wedge. See FIGURE 7
Use your right hand to push the control handle DOWN.
The ram will drive the log against the wedge to split.
Stabilize the log using your left hand when needed.
Remove left hand immediately as the wedge starts to
contact the log.
Release the control handle to stop splitting. The ram
will retract automatically for you to load next log.
When you finish splitting, switch off and unplug the
power cable.
NOTES
1. NEVER place hands or feet between the extending ram and the wedge.
2. NEVER straddle or step over the log splitter during operation.
3. NEVER reach or bend over the log splitter to pick up a log.
4. NEVER try to split two logs on top of each other.
5. NEVER try to cross split a log.
6. NEVER attempt to load your log splitter when the ram is in motion.
7. ALWAYS use your hand to operate the control lever on the valve. NEVER use your foot, a rope or any extension device.
8. ONLY operate your log splitter in daylight or under good artificial light.
9. ALWAYS keep the work area clean. Remove split wood around your log splitter immediately so that you don’t stumble
over it.
10. Only a single operator is allowed to load and operate this log splitter. Keep bystanders, helpers, pets and children a
sufficient distance at least 25 feet from the machine.
11. DO NOT force the tool. It is designed to operate within its maximum speed and tonnage. No continuing to push on the
control handle for more than 3 seconds. If you experience extremely hard wood, release the control handle at once to
avoid permanent damage which will void warranty. If the motor stops, turn off the motor and then turn it back on again to
continue splitting.
12. If the log is clipped or jammed on the wedge, stop the machine and knock off the log with a hammer or mallet (not with
your hands).
13. DO NOT pull on the power supply cable to unplug the machine.
