5. Never attempt to split more than

one log at a time. A piece of log can

unexpectedly be thrown from the

machine, causing severe personal

injury.

6. Do not use the Log Splitter to split

logs across the grain. Doing so will

damage the Log Splitter and could

also cause pieces of log to be thrown,

injuring the operator or bystanders.

Note: Many accidents occur when there is

more than one person involved in loading

and operating the Log Splitter. Only one

person should operate at a time. If a

second person is assisting in loading logs,

NEVER allow an assistant to hold the log

in place while the operator pulls on the

Jack Handles.

To Operate:

1. Grip one Handle in each hand and

pump the Handles in a back-and-forth

stroke motion. See Figure 2, below.

2. This action will force the log against

the Wedge Base and split the log.

3. Remove the split pieces.

4. Turn Handle Wheel (36A)

counterclockwise no more than one

full turn to retrieve the Ram. See

Figure 2.

5. Turn Handwheel clockwise until snug.

6. When nished, store the Log

Splitter with the Hand Wheel turned

counterclockwise one turn to relieve

the hydraulic pressure built up during

use.

To Remove A Stuck Log:

1. A log can be stuck on the Wedge

Base if the Wedge becomes

embedded in the log and the log

doesn’t completely split and separate.

This can happen if the log is too

stringy or tough to split completely.

If this happens, follow the directions

below.

2. WARNING! Never attempt to remove

a stuck log by doing the following:

• Using the hydraulic force of the Log

Splitter.

• Modifying the Log Splitter.

• Adding attachments to the Log

Splitter.

3. WARNING! Personal injury could

result from log or metal pieces ying

out at high speed toward the operator

or bystanders, or the Log Splitter

could become damaged.

4. Fully retract the Ram.

5. Remove the stuck log from the

Wedge manually with a pry bar.
