Preparation Of The Log
Both ends of the log should be cut as square
as possible to prevent the log from rotating
out of the splitter during operation.
Never split logs greater than the specified log
capacity.
Do not operate the log splitter on icy, wet,
muddy, or slippery ground. Only operate your
log splitter on level ground.
Do not move the log splitter over hilly or
uneven terrain without a tow vehicle or
adequate help.
Horizontal Operating Position
Hydraulic fluid can result in severe burns. Fluid
in the hydraulic system can penetrate skin
and result in serious injury or death. Be sure to
stop the engine and relieve hydraulic pressure
before doing any work on hydraulic parts.
Keep body and hands away from pin holes or
nozzles that expel hydraulic fluid when under
pressure. Use paper or cardboard, not hands,
to search for leaks.
Ensure all hydraulic fluid connections are tight
and all hydraulic hoses and lines are in good
condition before applying pressure to the
system.
Do not remove the cap from the hydraulic
tank or reservoir while the machine is running.
The tank could contain hot oil under pressure,
which could result in serious injury.
Do not adjust the pressure setting on the
hydraulic pump or valve.
If injured by escaping fluid, no matter how
small the wound is, see a doctor at once.
A typical injection injury may be a small
wound that does not look serious. However,
severe infection or reaction can result if
proper medical treatment is not administered
immediately by a doctor who is familiar with
injection injuries.
Specific Safety Rules
Operating on a slope could cause
the log splitter to roll over or logs to
fall off the equipment, which could
result in injury.
Many accidents occur when more
than one person operates the log
splitter.
The adult who loads and stabilizes
the log must be the person who
operates the control handle.
Vertical Operating Position
Keep the work area free of clutter. Remove
split wood from around the log splitter
immediately after each use to avoid potential
tripping.
