SAFETY PRECAUTIONS This Safety Alert Symbol indicates important messages in this manual.

This machine can amputate hands, feet, and throw objects. Failure to observe the following safety instructions could result in serious injury or death.
• NEVER operate your splitter near a flame or spark. Hydraulic oil and gasoline are flammable and can explode. • NEVER fill gas tank while the engine is hot or running. Allow the engine to cool before refueling. • This unit is equipped with an internal combustion engine and should not be used on or near any unimproved forest-covered, brush-covered or grass-covered land unless the engine’s exhaust system is equipped with a spark arrester meeting applicable local or state laws (if any).
TOWING SAFETY • Do not allow persons to ride on splitter. Do not carry any cargo or wood on your splitter. It may fall off and endanger vehicles that are following you. • Be sure support leg is in the travel position and coupling secure. This must also be retracted so not to interfere while towing. Retract support leg by removing pin, pivoting up, and replacing pin. • Never exceed 45 MPH while towing your splitter. Be extra cautious when traveling over rough terrain, especially over railroad tracks.
ASSEMBLY This log splitter has been partially assembled at the factory. Refer to the drawings and part lists should it become necessary to disassemble the unit for repair or replacement of parts. Inspect all components for damage. If you believe you have a damaged part please contact customer service immediately at 1-800-222-8183. WARNING: Exercise extreme caution, as parts are very heavy. Sufficient persons or mechanical handling equipment should be used.
COLD WEATHER START UP The Cold Weather Clutch enables the engine to be started without having to pull through cold, thickened hydraulic fluid. Simply push the handle in to the locked position. Start engine, let it warm up, and release Cold Weather Clutch. SPLITTER OPERATION 1. 2. 3. Set up the log splitter in a clear, level area and block the wheels. The suction port on the tank should always be on the lower side of the log splitter. Place a log on the beam, against the foot plate.
Fluid escaping from a very small hole can almost be invisible. Do not check for leaks with your hand. Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate skin causing serious personal injury or even death. Leaks can be detected by passing a piece of cardboard or wood over the suspected leak and looking for discoloration. IF injured by escaping fluid, see a doctor at once. Serious infection or reaction can develop if proper medical treatment is not administered immediately.
SAFETY DECALS Replace decals immediately if damaged.

SWISHER HISTORY Back before electricity came to rural Missouri Max Swisher was producing lawn mowers from his mother’s chicken house. Max never liked to mow grass. He installed a gearbox on his family’s lawn mower creating a self-propelled unit. By tying one end of a rope to the mower and the other end to a tree in the center of the yard the mower circled the tree, shortening the rope and guiding the mower in concentric circles. Max enjoyed relaxing under a shade tree while his invention did all the work.
