7.1 Cleaning
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor
housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible.
Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it
with compressed air at low pressure.
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished using it.
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth
and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents
or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of
the equipment. Ensure that no water can seep
into the device.

7.3 Servicing
7.3.1 Sharpening the wedge
Once it has been in use for some time, or as and
when necessary, you should sharpen the wedge with
a fine-toothed file and carefully remove any burrs or
flat areas on the edge.
Important!
Always disconnect the device from the power supply
before starting any maintenance work!
7.3.2 Changing the hydraulic oil (Fig. 32-34)
The hydraulic oil should be changed after every
300 hours of operation.
1. Ensure that the splitter is fully extended.
2. Remove the oil filler screw (Fig. 32).
3. Undo the oil drain screw (Fig. 34) and place a
vessel with a capacity of at least 6 liters under
the oil drain screw.
4. Remove the oil drain screw fully by hand so that
the oil drains into the vessel.
5. When all the oil has drained, clean the oil drain
screw and screw it back into position.
6. Place a funnel in the opening in the oil filler
screw and pour in 3.8 liters of hydraulic oil.
7. Clean the oil dipstick at the oil filler screw and
check the oil level by inserting the dipstick into
the opening in the oil filler screw. The oil level
must be between the two marks on the oil
dipstick (Fig. 37).
Only steps 2, 6 and 7 are required to fill the wood
