Oil
Use high-quality oil of the classes SF, SG, SH SJ or
better.
Together with the recommended oil no other specific
additives are needed.
Do not mix the oil with petrol.
Air-cooled engines operate with higher temperatures
than vehicle engines. When using non-synthetic
multigrade oil types (5W-30, 10W-30, etc.) at
temperatures above 4°C a higher than normal oil
consumption occurs. The oil level needs to be checked
more frequently.
When using the engine at temperatures under 4°C
synthetic oil must be used. Otherwise the engine may
be damaged.
When using SAE 30 oil at temperatures under 10°C it is
hard to start the engine and the motor may be damaged
due to insufficient lubrication.
Oil capacity: 0.6 l

Oil filling

1. Remove the oil filling plug (33).
2. Slowly pour oil into the hole.
3. Tighten the oil filling plug.
4. Wipe off oil residues/spilling.

Oil level checking

Remove the oil filling plug (33) and
check the oil level.
Petrol
Utmost care is required when handling
fuel. Keep away Keep away smoke and
open flames (risk of explosion).smoke and
open flames (risk of explosion).
Clean fresh non-leaded petrol having an octane
number of 85 as a minimum.
Do not fill in leaded petrol, diesel or other non-approved
fuels.
Do not use petrol having a smaller octance number than
85 ROZ. This may lead to severe engine damages.

If you frequently operate the device at high speeds, you
should use petrol with a higher octane number.
The use of unleaded petrol is recommended for
environment protection reasons.

Storing fuel (petrol)

Fuels have only a limited shelf-life, they are subject to
ageing. Outdated fuels and fuel mixtures may result in
starting problems. Therefore, store only that quantity of
fuel which you can use within a month.
Only store fuels in containers approved and identified for
this. Keep fuel containers in a dry and safe area.
Make sure that fuel containers are kept out of the reach
for children.
Fuelling the log splitter
• Stop the engine and allow it to cool down.
• Wear protective gloves.
• Avoid eye and skin contact.
• Strictly follow the instructions under "Safe
handling with fuels".
1. Only fuel the machine outdoors or in sufficiently
ventilated rooms.
2. Clean the area around the filler neck. Contamination in
the tank may result in malfunction.
3. Carefully open the tank cap (32) to allow possible
overpressure to relax.
4. Carefully pour fuel into the filler neck until is is approx. 4
cm below the neck's edge to allow the fuel space for
expansion.
5. If contaminated, clean the fuel filling filter (40).
6. Close the tank cap.
Check that the tank cap is tight.
7. Clean the tank cap and the area around it.
8. Check the tank and the fuel lines for leaks.
Before starting the engine take the machine and go
away at least three metres from the fuelling place.

Check that the machine is completely and correctly
assembled.
Before using the log splitter, make sure each time that
there are no damages at the machine
−
all screws are tight
−
check the hydraulic system for any possible leaks
−

The transport closure must be replaced by the oil
dipstick before start up the machine.
