will therefore move upwards with the splitter.
These pieces of wood must therefore be split in
several stages. You can start, for example, with
the trunk support at its lowest position (Fig. 22 /
Item C), continue by splitting the wood in the
central position (Fig. 22 / Item B) and then finish
splitting the wood with the trunk support in its
highest position (Fig. 22 / Item A).
Switch off the machine at the red OFF switch (Fig. 28
/ Item B) after completing the work or to adjust the
trunk support.
Important!
If the trunk fails to split immediately, never
attempt to force it to split by maintaining the
pressure for more than a few seconds. This may
damage the machine. It is far more advisable to
try and reposition the trunk on the splitter or to
remove the trunk altogether and place it to one
side.
6.8 Stack while you are working.
By doing this you will make sure that you have a safe
area in which to work because you will keep it clear
of obstacles and prevent any risk of tripping over or
of the power cable becoming damaged.
6.9 Do not forget to retighten the ventilation
screw (Fig. 33/Item A) when you have
finished your splitting work.
6.10 Releasing a jammed trunk
1. Retract the splitter fully.
2. Position a wedge-shaped piece of wood on the
trunk support.
3. Move the splitter downwards. The jammed trunk
will be pushed forward by the wedge-shaped
piece of wood.
4. Repeat this process with larger and larger
wedges until the jammed is released.
Important!
Never hammer against the stuck trunk or place
your hands anywhere near the trunk when trying
to release it.
NEVER ASK ANYONE ELSE TO HELP WHEN
TRYING TO RELEASE A TRUNK WHICH HAS
BECOME STUCK.
NEVER ATTEMPT TO RELEASE THE TRUNK
BY HITTING IT WITH A TOOL.

7. Cleaning, maintenance and ordering
of spare parts
Always pull out the mains power plug before starting
any cleaning work.
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.

7.2 Transport and storage

Transport
1. Move the splitter as far downwards as possible
2. Switch off the wood splitter and disconnect the
mains lead
3. Move the hand guards together and secure them
with string (Fig. 2 / Item 21) or the like
4. Transport the wood splitter using the transport
handle in the required position (Fig. 27)
Important. The wood splitter may only be
transported in an upright position. If it is transported
in a horizontal position, the hydraulic oil must be
drained (see section 7.3.2)
Storage
Only store the wood splitter in dry rooms and in
an upright position
Move the splitter as far downwards as possible
for storage
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!
