4. Safety
Strictly perform installation, set-up, maintenance, cleaning and transportation with the
motor switched off and the tool firmly secured against accidental operation.
Immediately disconnect power off the machine in case of any eventual fault or trouble.
The user shall strictly comply with these operation, set-up, maintenance, repair and troubleshooting
instructions in order to assure safe operation and no damages to the equipment. Moreover we recommend
to let the machine be run only and strictly by trained and skilled staff who must be familiar with the applicable
occupational safety and health administration rules as well as applicable transportation rules. Incorrect use
of the splitter can cause serious injury or death. Make sure that full compliance is assured at all times with
the general safety and health rules on the workplace as well as the applicable local traffic rules.
No person under school leaving age should operate a circular saw. However, young people in age of 16 or
slightly more may work on the machine providing that they received adequate training, that they carry all
due personal protection safeties and that an adult supervisor keeps standing nearby.
Machine instability can result in injury or severe damages. To ensure stability during operation make sure
to choose a flat, dry floor free from any tall grass, brush or other interferences.
The working area around the machine must be kept as clear as possible from surrounding tripping obstacles
and slippery foundation floors should be duly treated (do not use saw dust or wood ash for this purpose).
Make sure that the equipment stands on a safe stable foundation.
Following precautions must be taken at all times:
- NEVER use your log splitter at night or without sufficient illumination.
- NEVER operate your log splitter on slippery, wet, muddy, or icy surfaces and ensure that a wide but
confined
area is available around the machine and assure maximum working freedom.
- NEVER operate the machine without wearing steel-toed shoes, tight-fitting gloves and tear-resistant
work cloths
- NEVER remove from your log splitters the safety tools and devices mounted on the machine by the
manufacturer
- NEVER exceed the max admissible number of drive shaft revolutions (540 rpm/min)
- NEVER exceed 420 rpm/min if continuous operation is performed.
Always assure compliance with safety, protection and accident prevention rules as well as general road and
traffic rules in the country of use.
Operators should always wear personal protection cloths, steel-toed safety shoes, snug-fitting tear-resistant
work cloths, safety gloves earplugs and safety goggles.
Site must be free of slippery surfaces and tripping obstacles. Make sure that all access ways are properly
maintained so that wood can be safely delivered, loaded and shipped.
4.1 Mandatory application field
The log splitter is strictly designed for one-man operation. Never allow more than one person approach
and work on the machine at the same time.
This splitter is conceived for splitting short and long logs for firewood preparation only. BEWARE: no
cross-grain splitting is permitted. Always split grain-wise and never split one log on top of the other.
When loading logs on the log splitter make sure that the chunk rests entirely and safely on the riffle-plate
table and avoid unsafe methods or splitting other materials than firewood.
Any other use or splitting method is considered by the manufacturer as "misuse". In case of misuse
the manufacturer will not be liable for any injuries or damages and the operator will be held entirely
responsible.
Please make sure to comply with these set-up, operation and maintenance/repair instructions in order to
avoid happening of any injury or dangerous condition.

BEWARE: this unit has a log capacity of min 70 mm and max 450 mm diameter.
5. Operation
5.1 Hand-guard assembly
Uncrate the machine and assemble the special U-guards
on the control handles before first use and installation.
These hand-guards are delivered loose in the crate by
the manufacturer for packing reasons. After uncrating,
they are to be simply screwed on the control levers. To do
so, fix each guard with two screws (see picture on the
side). Make sure to tight all screws after complete guard
assembly.
5.2 Hydraulic specs
The machine is equipped with own hydraulic oil tank located inside the base-stand and is supplied by the
manufacturer with a first oil fill.
BEWARE: a leaning splitter position during transport may result into oil leakage from the oil plug.
At low ambient temperature the oil in the hydraulic circuit will thicken. In this case, it is recommended to
avoid sudden start-up (splitting without warming the motor up) that could result into damages and trouble
of the hydraulic system.
To assure trouble free operation of the hydraulic system at low ambient temperature, let the motor run idle
and cycle the unit several times till the oil in the hydraulic loop warms up.
Setting of the main control valve is done at the manufacturer before shipping. The unit comes to you
ready for service so that no other adjustment/installation work is required other than assembly of the
hand-guards on the control levers.
5.3 Initial check-ups
The log splitter is equipped with safety two-hands mechanical controls designed for the operator
to keep both hands free from danger and from infringing the moving ram zone during the entire
splitting cycle.
It is strongly recommended to check the operation of the two-hands control every time before a new use.
To do so, engage both handles and hold them down at the same time until the wedge slides all the way
down.
If your system is duly set, the wedge stops upon releasing of just one of the two handles while the ram stops
completing its up/down stroke at once.
On the other hand, the wedge must recommence its upwards travel to the initial start position (all the way
up) as soon as the other handle is also released.
Make sure that the wedge does not travel down when operating only one single lever.
Check that both handles spring back into their normal position when the hand pressure is released.
5.4 Start-up
Before first use, make sure that the log splitter is in good conditions and that there are no visual damages.
Check all hydraulic hoses, fittings and couplings to detect and repair eventual oil leaks. Do not check for
leaks with your hand. Leaks can be located by passing a piece of cardboard or wood around the
suspected leak and looking for discoloration.
Make sure that all safeties and protections are duly assembled on the machine. Do not attempt to
remove or by-pass these safeties!

Should any trouble or unusual behaviour be detected, do not start splitting wood until these have been
fixed.
5.5 WARNING
The location you choose for your machine should be flat, dry, and solid.
Check around log splitter for hazards. Make sure that the area is free of slippery surfaces and
objects to trip over. Slippery and icy floor conditions must be duly treated to assure solid standing
conditions.
Never reach with your hands at pinch points where they can get caught by the travelling wedge!
5.6 Adjusting the ram stroke length
The ram travel is factory set to the maximum log capacity before shipment. You just need to start the motor
and the ram slides automatically up to the maximum travel stroke.
Should your chunks be much shorter than your capacity beneath the wedge,
it is possible to adjust the ram stroke accordingly.
Stepless ram stroke adjustment is possible at all times.
RAM STROKE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE:
Slide the wedge riser down to the desired stroke length and shut the motor off.
When you do this, make sure to engage one of the control handles in order to prevent
the ram from trigging back to its upper start position.
Now release the wing-nut on the rear grip-handle and pull up the control rod as much as possible. The
ram travel is reduced by an equivalent stroke length as the pulled-up rod length. Once the rod is pulled
sufficiently up to obtain the desired ram stroke, tighten the wind-nut back to the original torque.
Now you can start the splitter motor again and check the ram that should be now completing a shorter
travel than the original full-stroke.
Later ram travel adjustments to the original full-stroke length can be repeated at all times by simply releasing
the wing-nut, pushing the rod back in and tightening the wing-nut again.
5.7 Setting the intermediate short-logs table
The log splitter is equipped with an intermediate hang-up table for splitting
short logs up to 550 mm long.
Setting-up/removing the short-logs table can be easily performed without
any additional tool or help.
To remove it:
- release the wing-nut on the table mount,
- remove the safety lock pin on one side,
- now, slightly lift the table up and pull it out towards you
To fit it on:
- slip the table onto the lower level mount, grip the front rim of the table
and slightly lift it up, and push it down to the stop,
- now release grip on the front rim and let the table settle down making
sure that the rear table hooks are well and firmly settled on the mounts (see picture on the side)
- Finally slip the clevis back into the special fixation holes on the table mounts and tighten them by means
of the special wing-nuts.
(if the table is duly settled the clevis will fit easily and effortless into the holes)
5.8 Setting the log clamps
In order to hold the log firmly under the wedge during the entire splitting cycle,
use the special log-clamps located on each control handle. Both log clamps
are adjustable depending on log diameter and size and in case of very think logs,
they can be set all inside the cutting area.
