10. Maintenance

m Electrical connection
Check electrical connection cables regularly for
damage. Ensure that the connecting cable is not
attached to the mains when you are checking it.
Electrical connecting cables must correspond to the
relevant VDE and DIN regulations. Only use connecting
cables with the code H 07 RN.
The type designation must be printed on the connecting
cable by regulation.
Faulty electrical connecting cables
Insulation damage often occurs at electrical connecting
cables.
Causes include:
• Pinch points when connecting cables are run
through window or door gaps.
• Kinks resulting from incorrect attachment or laying
of the connection cable.
• Cuts resulting from running over the connecting
cable.

Insulation damage resulting from forcefully pulling out
of the wall socket.
Cracks through aging of insulation.
Such defective electrical connection cables must
not be used as the insulation damage makes them
extremely hazardous.
Three-phase motor 400 V / 50 Hz
Mains voltage 400 V / 50 Hz
Mains voltage and extension cables must be 5-lead (3P
+ N + SL (3/N/PE).
Extension cables must have a minimum cross-section
of 1.5 mm².
Mains fuse protection is 16 A maximum.
When connecting to the mains or relocating the
machine, check the direction of rotation (swap polarity
in the wall socket if necessary).
Turn pole inverter in the machine socket.
Switch off the motor and pull the power supply plug
before undertaking any converting, maintenance, or
cleaning work.
Always pull power plug!!
Skilled craftsmen can execute smaller repairs on the
machine themselves.
Repair and maintenance work on the electrical system
may only be carried out by an electrician.
All protection and safety devices must be replaced
immediately after completing repair and maintenance
procedures.
We recommend:
Thoroughly clean the machine after every use.
Splitting knife
• The splitting knife is a wearing part that should be
reground or replaced by a new one, if necessary.
Two-hand control
• The combined supporting and control unit must be
kept easy-going. Occasionally grease with a few
drops of oil.
Moving parts
• Keep splitting knife guides clean from dirt, wood
chips, bark etc.
• Grease sliding rails with oil spray or grease.
• Checking the hydraulic oil level
• Check hydraulic connections and bolts for tight-
ness and wear. Retighten the bolts if necessary.
Checking the oil level
The hydraulic unit is a closed system with oil tank, oil
pump and control valve. Check the oil level regularly
before every use. Too low an oil level can damage the
oil pump. The correct oil level is approx. 10 to 20 mm
below the oil tank surface.
When checking, the splitting column must be retracted.
The checking Device is under the splitting table.. The
machine must stand on level ground.
When must the oil be changed?
First oil change after 50 operating hours, then every
500 operating hours.
Changing Oil, fig. 10
Put the splitting column all the way in.
Place a container with a capacity of at least 8 l. below
the splitter.
Release the venting hatch A.
