Splitting
• Place the wood on the base plate and hold it with the
two retaining claws (4) on the control arms (6), and
place the piece of wood in the middle of the riving
knife (2), press the control levers (6) down, as soon
as the riving knife (2) penetrates the wood, move the
control arms (6) approx. 2 cm away from the wood,
while pressing the control levers (8) down at the
same time. This prevents damage to the retaining
claws (4)!
• Move the riving knife (2) down until the wood is split,
if the wood is not completely split during the first
splitting stroke, slowly release both control levers
(8) and carefully move the riving knife (2) with wood
upwards to the end position. Then swivel table (9)
Fig. 10 by hand or foot until the locking hook (10) Fig.
1 engages. Now carry out a second splitting stroke
until the wood is completely split and remove the
logs, then swivel the swivel table away again with
your foot or hand Fig.7
