1.1 About this manual
Please take time to read this manual and learn to how operate and maintain
the splitter safely. For your easier reading this manual is laid out in several
sections. The sections are progressively numbered 1 through 16 and listed
on the “content” page. The information, pictures and technical data in this
document reflect current or planned product features, functions, and cha-
racteristics as of the publication date. Because of on-going product impro-
vements and feature additions, information in this document is subject to
change without notice. If you are experiencing a problem or functional trou-
ble on your machine, please read the “trouble-shooting” section to identify
possible causes and remedies. If the problem or functional trouble is not
listed in the troubleshooting chart contained in this manual, ask your Au-
thorized Service Centre for service. When you have checked all the possible
causes listed and you are still experiencing the problem, ask your Authorized
Service Centre for help. When you order parts maintenance or repair ser-
vices, your Authorized Service Centre, your dealer or eventually the manuf-
acturer need your machine serial number and engine serial number. These
are the numbers that you have recorded on the product identification label of
the manufacturer on the machine.
1.2 Delivery and transport claims
Upon receiving the splitter at your place, please check for visual ma-
chine damages such as damaged packing or scratched buckled parts.
If so, make a remark on all copies of the delivery bill before signing
for acceptance.

Also have the truck driver sign al copies of the delivery bill.
Should your shipper or the truck driver refuse to accept your claim,
fully reject delivery of the machine and make sure to inform us (the
manufacturer) immediately. No claims will be taken into account by the
shipper or by the insurance company, if a reservation note is not made
on the delivery bill.
All transport damages must be notified within latest 2 days from de-
livery. Therefore delivery must be collected and inspected within this
term. Later claims shall be disregarded. In case of assumed but not
visually clear transport damages make sure to mark the following
sentence on the delivery bill: „Reserved delivery due to assumed
transportation damages.“
Insurance and shipping companies act with extreme caution in case of
transport damages and sometimes refuse to accept responsibility.
Please make sure to provide clear and exhaustive evidence (photos) of
the claimed damages.
Thank you in advance for your help and attention to this matter.

4. SAFETY RULES

9
4.1 Mandatory application field
The machine is strictly designed to split firewood along the wood fib-
res. No second operator or bystanders are allowed on the machine
while working.
When splitting your logs, be sure that the log is safely laid down in the
special wood carriage by means of the special log lift.
The manufacturer will consider any other use or application as “misu-
se”, in which case the manufacturer will not be responsible for custo-
mers’ claims or resulting damages.
Customers are to operate the machine in strict accordance with these
installation, operation, maintenance and repair instructions. Lack of
compliance with these instructions may lead to dangerous risks and si-
tuations. This manual contains useful information about machine safe-
ty, installation, transportation, maintenance and service.
Lack of compliance with these instructions may lead to dange-
rous risks and situations and will void all warranty claims, in
which case the manufacturer will not be responsible for custo-
mers’ claims or resulting damages and/or injuries.

5. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Fig. 1 - Phase inverter
5.1 Electric specifications (for SP 30HEH/S and SP 30HZEH/S only)
Connect the 400V motor using a 25 m long power cable in a minimum
section of 1.5 mm2.
Make sure to connect the neutral return wire of the conductor cord or
the machine won‘t start!
A switch-plug combination outlet provides power supply to the machine.
Before first use, check that the motor rotates in the direction shown
by the arrow on the housing. To do this, quickly switch the motor on
and off. Should rotation be performed in the opposite direction than
shown by the arrow-label on the motor fan, immediately stop the mo-
tor and use a phase inverter (Fig. 1) to change the plugging polarity of
the conductor cable.
Operating the splitter while the motor turns in the wrong direc-
tion may cause major, even permanent damages of the
hydraulic pump!
5.2 Hydraulic specifications
This professional horizontal log splitter has own inbuilt hydraulic sys-
tem with pump and and oil reservoire purposely located at the base of
the main frame. The machine comes from the factory with a first oil
fill. (see page 14 for oil change instructions).
Hydraulic oil in the lines may become quite viscous at very low
ambient temperature. In this case, sudden start-up may dama-
ge the hydraulic system of your machine. In order to protect
the system, rather let the splittet run idle (with no load and no
operation) for a while (approx. 15 min) till the oil in the lines
warms up.
The splitter is hydraulically controlled by means a control valve
whose fine default-settings are performed by the manufacturer before
delivery. Do not alter these settings.
