SAFETY
OXDALE PRODUCTS REQUIRES THAT ANYONE
OPERATING OR MAINTAINING THE LOG SPLITTER SHALL
READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL SAFETY, OPERATION AND
MAINTENANCE DATA CONTAINED IN THIS USER
MANUAL BEFORE USING THE LOG SPLITTER.
The E300, E400 and E400D log splitters are powered by a
single-phase electricity supply and should be used in
conjunction with a P CD (Portable esidual Current Device)
circuit breaker. They can be used indoors or outdoors, but
should be stored in a dry place.
Hydraulic action provides the force to drive a splitting
wedge into a log. Never operate the log splitter if
unauthorized persons are in the area, especially small
children.
Hazards associated with log splitting may be pinch points,
splinters, eye injury and entanglement.
IT IS FOR SINGLE PERSON USE ONLY.
YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SAFE OPERATION
AND MAINTENANCE OF THE LOG SPLITTER. THE
MOST IMPORTANT SAFETY DEVICE ON THE
EQUIPMENT IS THE SAFE OPERATOR.
•Never put hands or fingers between the wedge and the
log to be split or near moving parts. Always stop the
machine before cleaning it or making adjustments.

•The operator should wear suitable PPE including eye
protection, gloves and safety boots. Close fitting
clothing should be worn to reduce the risk of
entanglement. The safety decals and other labels on the
machine are shown on the following page.
•Never stand either side of the log splitter whilst
operating. Logs can sometimes split apart violently e.g.
due to knots. Stand in front of the machine to minimise
risk from falling debris.
•Never hold the top of the log whilst setting in place or
splitting.
•Never split two logs on top of each other.
•The log splitter is very powerful but some hard or wet
wood can be difficult to split. Do not force the wedge as
this could cause injury to yourself and cause damage to
the log splitter.
•Never let children operate machinery.
•Do not leave machinery unattended whist it is running.
•Both ends of each log should be cut as square as possible
to help prevent the log from riding out of the splitter.
This is also aided by the three holes in the log platform
having raised edges to reduce the risk of slipping.
•Always choose a working area free from obstructions
and then keep the working area free from obstructions
such as logs and split wood.
•Machine is for single person operation only using both
hands on the operating lever.
•Operate splitter on solid ground level.

5. To the capacitor starting and resistance starting motors,
rear end of the frame mounted with centrifugal switch. On
the rear end of the motor base there is furnished a quick-
break centrifugal switch.
When the motor is started and attains to a certain speed
the switch will give a crisp sound of “click, click” and thus
cut off the power supply to the secondary winding with the
motor in normal run
.
When the motor fails to start or when it does start and
attain a certain speed but accompanies with shock and
shriek instead of the crisp click
,
cut off the power supply
immediately and carefully inspect the centrifugal switch
and the capacitor
.
V. Overhaul
In order to insure reliable operation the motor, which
should be carried out at regular intervals, usually once a
year.
