16.1 Preparatory activities

16.1.1

Installation site

Place the log splitter on a flat and solid surface, which can bear the weight of the machine + load. Fix the log
splitter to the ground through the two holes in the frame.

Apply a thin layer of grease to the
the life of the tool.
16.1.3

Bleeding the hydraulic system

Never forget to loosen the oil tank cap! Otherwise the air in the system will be
compressed and released again and again, which will destroy the seals of the hydraulic
circuit and make the log splitter unusable.
16.1.4

Checking the rotation direction of the motor

Never run the motor in the wrong rotation direction. This will damage the pump and void
the warranty.
16.1.5

Check two-hand operation

following the steps below:
(1) Lower both control levers, the splitting wedge lowers to 5 cm above the highest table position.
(2) Release one of the two levers, the splitting wedge should be in original position
