The log splitter is equipped with a two-hand
control. The left hand controls the hydraulic
control lever, the right hand the pressure switch
(see illustration on the left). If one hand is
missing, the log splitter "freezes".
The trigger-controlled locking device is
designed to prevent accidental lowering of the
hydraulic control lever.
To operate the hydraulic control lever, first
move it forwards and then pull the trigger
downwards with your index finger (Fig. left).
Only when both hands release the control
elements the log pusher automatically returns
to its starting position.
