5. Before starting the equipment

5.1 Fitting the switch/plug combination (Fig. 4)
Install the switch/plug combination on the wood
splitter as shown in Figure 4. Use the four screws
(Fig. 2 / Item 13) for this purpose.
5.2 Fitting the wheels (Fig. 5-10)
Push a split pin (Fig. 2 / Item 16) through one of the
holes in the axle (Fig. 2 / Item 14) and bend it as
shown in Figure 6. Now slide a washer (Fig. 2 / Item
15) and a wheel (Fig. 2 / Item 7) over it (Fig. 7).
Guide the axle through the holes provided for it at the
bottom on the rear of the wood splitter (Fig. 8). Now
place the remaining wheel and washer on the axle
(Fig. 9) and secure it with the other split pin (Fig. 10).
5.3 Fitting the control lever and hand guards (Fig
11a-14)
Remove the pre-assembled securing screws from the
two hand guards by undoing the nuts and removing
the screws as shown in Figure 11a. Guide the hand
guards and control level, as shown in Figure 11b,
from the front into the wood splitter so that the ends of
the control lever project through the recesses
provided for it in the control rods (Fig. 12). Then
secure the hand guards using the previously
unassembled securing screws as shown in Figure 13
- 14a. The safety bars (Item 22) and guard plates
(Item 19) are fitted to the hand guards (Item 3) as
shown in Figures 14b-14d.
5.4 Fitting the trunk holding plates (Fig. 15a-18)
Undo the star nuts on the two trunk holding plates
(Fig. 2/Item 11) by turning these counter-clockwise as
shown in Figure 15a. You now have the trunk holding
plates, star nut A, washer B and fastening screw C
(Fig. 15b). Push the trunk holding plates through the
guide slots in the hand guards, as shown in Figure 16.
As you do this, ensure that the oval holes in the trunk
holding plates line up with the securing holes. Insert
the securing screws A from below through the oval
holes in the trunk holding plates and the holes in the
hand guards as shown in Figure 17 and secure then
by fitting the washers B and star nuts C to them from
above (Fig. 18). The trunk holding plates can be
adjusted to the trunk thickness using the oval holes.

5.5 Fitting the chain to adjust the splitter height
(Fig. 19-21)
First undo the lock nut on the chain hook (Fig. 19).
Secure the chain hook to the hole provided for it next
to the chain holder behind the splitter as shown in
Figure 20. The chain is designed to limit the height of
the splitter. To do this, move the splitter
approximately to the required position, switch off the
machine (Fig. 29) and attach the chain in the
appropriate position (Fig. 21).
5.6 Fitting the trunk support (Fig. 22-26)
The trunk support can be installed at three different
heights (Fig. 22):
Position A: Max. log length 520 mm
Position B: Max. log length 770 mm
Position C: Max. log length 1040 mm
There are three attachment devices at different
heights on the wood splitter for this purpose. Fit the
trunk support (2) as shown in Figures 22 - 26.
5.7 Filling with hydraulic oil
The wood splitter must be filled with oil before it is
started for the first time. Refer to section 10
"Changing the hydraulic oil"

6. Operation

6.1 Plan your work area.
To work in safety and save yourself a lot of effort,
plan your work area in advance. Position the trunks
where they are easy to reach. Allocate an area for
stacking the split wood or load it onto a wheelbarrow
or other means of transportation positioned to one
side.
6.2 Prepare the trunks for splitting.
This splitter can hold trunks with a maximum length
of 1040 mm and a maximum diameter of 320 mm. If
you cut branches or large logs, never cut any lengths
which exceed those specified. Never attempt to split
fresh trunks. Dried timber which has been in storage
is much easier to split than fresh (moist) wood and
will not stick so often.
