Authorized Use; Remaining Hazards - Scheppach HL1100GE Originalbetriebsanweisung

m Authorized use
The log splitter meets the valid EC machine guideline.
• The hydraulic log splitter can only be used in a vertical
position. Logs may only be split along the direction of
the fiber. Log dimensions are:
Log lengths 62/80/102/135 cm
Ø min. 12 cm, max. 40 cm
• Never split logs in horizontal position or against the
direction of the fiber.
• Observe the safety, working, and maintenance instruc­
tions of the manufacturer, as well as the dimensions
given in the chapter Technical data.
• The applicable accident prevention regulations as well
as all generally recognized safety rules must be ad­
hered to.
• Only persons who have been trained in the use of the
machine and have been informed of the various dan­
gers may work with the machine and service or repair
it. Arbitrary modifications of the machine release the
manufacturer from any responsibility for resulting dam­
age.
• The machine may only be used with original acces­
sories and original tools of the manufacturer.
• Any other use exceeds authorization. The manufacturer
is not responsible for any damages resulting from un­
authorized use; risk is the sole responsibility of the
operator.
m Remaining hazards
The machine has been built using modern technology in
accordance with recognized safety rules. Some remaining
hazards, however, may still exist.
• The splitting tool can cause injuries to fingers and
hands if the wood is incorrectly guided or supported.
• Thrown pieces can lead to injury if the work piece is
not correctly placed or held.
• Even when all safety measures are taken, some re­
maining hazards which are not yet evident may still
be present.
• Remaining hazards can be minimized by following the
safety instructions as well as the instructions in the
chapter Authorized use and in the entire operating
manual.
