Operating Instructions

CAUTION: Turn Fuel Shut O Valve to the “O ” position

before towing to avoid ooding the engine.

NOTE: e engine‘s maximum speed is factory preset at 3600

RPM as the no load speed. e throttle should be set at the

maximum speed for wood splitting to reach the horsepower

required for the pump.

WARNING: Review safety information related to operation of

the log splitter on pages 3-6 of this manual. Make sure that you

have the recommended personal protective equipment described

on page 3.

1. Set up the log splitter in a clear, level area and block the

wheels. Make sure that the suction port on the tank is always

on the lower side of the log splitter.

2. For horizontal operation place a log on the beam against the

foot plate. Make sure the log is securely on the foot plate and

against the beam. To split wood in the vertical position, release

the pin on the beam latch located on the front end of the

beam. Carefully tilt the beam up until the foot plate is sitting

squarely on the ground and the log splitter is stable. Place

the log on the foot plate against the beam. When the beam is

returned to the horizontal position make sure the beam latch

is securely locked down.

3. With the engine running, depress the valve handle so that the

cylinder will drive the wedge into the log. Extend the cylinder

until the log splits or to the end of its stroke. If the log has not

completely split after the cylinder has reached the end of its

extension, retract the cylinder.

IMPORTANT: Leaving the valve in the “actuate” position at the

end of the stroke may damage the pump. Always use extra care

when splitting logs with unsquare ends.

Store manuals in the Manual Cannister attached to the tongue

of the log splitter or le in a safe place for futre reference.
