REPLACING THE HYDRAULIC OIL
Replace the Hydraulic oil in the log splitter
after every 150 hours of use as follows.
• Make sure all moving parts stops and
the log splitter is unplugged.
• Unscrew Oil Drain Bolt with Dipstick to
remove it.
• Turn the log splitter on the Support Leg
side over a 8 litres capacity container to
drain the hydraulic oil off.
• Turn the log splitter on the motor side.
• Refill with fresh hydraulic oil to the
volume given for a particular model in
technical specifications table.
• Clean the surface of Dipstick attached
to the Oil Drain Bolt and put it back into
the oil tank while keep the log splitter
vertical.
• Make sure the level of the refilled oil
is just between 2 grooves around the
Dipstick.
• Clean the Oil Drain Bolt threads before
re-inserting. Make sure it is tightened
to avoid leakage before placing the log
splitter horizontal.
Periodically check oil level to ensure it is between the 2 grooves
around the Dipstick. When the oil level reaches the lower groove, oil
refilling is required. We recommend using ISO 46 grade hydraulic
fluid, sometimes labelled as #46 grade oil.
