Splitting
• Place the wood on the table, hold it with both han-
dles, push the handles downwards, as soon as the
splitting blade penetrates the wood, push the handles
outwards while pressing downwards. This prevents
pressure from being exerted on the retaining plates.
• Only split logs that have been sawn off straight.
• Split the wood horizontally.
• Never split wood lying down or crosswise.
• Wear suitable gloves when splitting wood.
• Attention: Risk of injury! Do not remove jammed
wood with your hands, always knock it out
against the direction of splitting.
Attention! The lateral tray tables may not be used as
splitting support or splitting table.
End of work
• Move the splitting blade to the lower position.
• Release one control arm.
• Switch off the device and disconnect the mains plug.
• Close the bleeder screw.
• Observe general maintenance information.
10. Electrical connection
The electrical motor installed is connected and ready
for operation. The connection complies with the appli-
cable VDE and DIN provisions.
The customer's mains connection as well as the ex-
tension cable used must also comply with these reg-
ulations.
Use a portable safety switch (PRCD) if the residual cur-
rent protective circuit (RCD) in the mains power supply
is not provided with a rated residual current of no more
than 0.03 A.
• The product meets the requirements of the
EN 61000-3-11 and is subject to special connection
conditions. This means that use at any freely se-
lectable connection points is not permitted.
• Given unfavourable conditions in the power supply
the product can cause the voltage to fluctuate tem-
porarily.
• The product is only intended for use at connection
points that
a) do not exceed a maximum permissible mains im-
pedance of "Z" (Zmax 0.354 Ω (230V)/ 1.043 Ω
(400 V), or
b) have a mains constant current carrying capacity
of at least 100 A per phase.
• As the user, you are required to ensure, in consulta-
tion with your electric power company if necessary,
that the connection point at which you wish to oper-
ate the product meets one of the two requirements,
a) or b), named above.
Damaged electrical connection cable
The insulation on electrical connection cables is often
damaged.
This may have the following causes:
• Pressure points, where connection cables are
passed through windows or doors.
• Kinks where the connection cable has been improp-
erly fastened or routed.
• Places where the connection cables have been cut
due to being driven over.
• Insulation damage due to being ripped out of the wall
outlet.
• Cracks due to the insulation ageing.
Such damaged electrical connection cables must not
be used and are life-threatening due to the insulation
damage.
Check the electrical connection cables for damage
regularly. Ensure that the connection cables are dis-
connected from electrical power when checking for
damage.
Electrical connection cables must comply with the ap-
plicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use connection
cables marked with H07RN.
The printing of the type designation on the connection
cable is mandatory.
For single-phase AC motors, we recommend a fuse
rating of C 16A or K 16A for machines with a high start-
ing current (from 3000 watts)!
AC motor 230 V~ / 50 Hz
Mains voltage 230 V~ / 50 Hz.
Mains power connection and extension leads must be
3-core = P + N + SL. - (1/N/PE).
Extension cables must have a minimum cross section
of 1.5mm².
The mains power connection must be protected with a
max. 16 A fuse.
3-phase motor 400 V ~/ 50 Hz
Mains voltage 400 V~ / 50 Hz.
Mains power connection and extension leads must be
5-core = 3 P + N + SL. - (3/N/PE).
