what
you are doing, and use common sense
when operating the machine.
Do
not
overreach. Do
not
operate
the
machine while barefoot
or
when wearing sandals
or
similar lightweight footwear. Wear

start
to
vibrate
abnormally,
stop
the
engine (motor)
and
check immediately
for
the
cause.
Vibration
is
generally a warning sign
of
trouble.
Safety I 6
ENGINE
SAFETY
This machine
is
equipped
with
an internal combustion engine.
Do
not
use
on
or
near any unimproved, forest covered,
or
brush
covered land unless the exhaust system
is
equipped
with
a spark
arrester meeting applicable local, state,
or
federal laws.
In
the
state
of
California, a spark
arrester
is
required
by
law.
Other
states have similar laws. A spark arrester,
if
used, must
be
maintained in effective working
order
by the operator.
Never
start
or
run
the
engine inside a closed area. The exhaust
fumes are dangerous, containing carbon monoxide, an odorless
and
deadly
gas.
Operate
this
unit
only
in
a
well-ventilated
outdoor area.
Do
not
tamper
with
the engine
to
run
it
at
excessive speeds. The
maximum engine speed
is
preset
by
the
manufacturer
and is
within
safety limits.
See
engine manual.
Keep a Class B fire extinguisher on hand when operating this log
splitter
in
dry
areas
as
a precautionary measure.
FUEL
SAFETY
Fuel
is
highly flammable, and
its
vapors can explode
if
ignited.
Take precautions when using
to
reduce
the
chance
of
serious
personal injury.
When
refilling
or
draining
the
fuel tank, use an approved fuel
storage container while in a clean, well-ventilated
outdoor
area.
Do
not
smoke,
or
allow sparks, open flames,
or
other
sources
of
ignition
near
the
area
while
adding fuel
or
operating
the
unit.
Never fill
the
fuel tank indoors.
Keep grounded
conductive
objects, such
as
tools, away
from
exposed, live electrical parts and connections
to
avoid sparking
or
arcing. These events could ignite fumes
or
vapors.
Always stop
the
engine and allow
it
to
cool before filling the fuel
tank. Never remove the
cap
of
the fuel tank
or
add fuel while the
engine
is
running
or
when
the
engine
is
hot. Do
not
operate the
machine
with
known leaks in the fuel system.
Loosen the fuel tank
cap
slowly
to
relieve any pressure in the tank.
Never overfill
the
fuel tank. Fill
the
tank
to
no more than
1/2"
below the bottom
of
the filler neck
to
provide space
for
expansion
as
the
heat
of
the
engine
can
cause fuel
to
expand.
Replace
all fuel tank
and
container
caps
securely
and
wipe up spilled
fuel. Never operate the unit
without
the fuel
cap
securely in
place.
7 I Safety
Avoid creating a source
of
ignition
for
spilled fuel.
If
fuel
is
spilled,
do
not
attempt
to
start
the
engine
but
move
the
machine away
from the area
of
spillage and avoid creating any source
of
ignition
until fuel vapors have dissipated.
When fuel
is
spilled on yourself
or
your
clothes, wash
your
skin
and change clothes immediately.
Store fuel in containers specifically designed and approved
for
this purpose.
Store fuel in a cool, well-ventilated area, safely away
from
sparks,
open flames,
or
other
sources
of
ignition.
Never
store
fuel
or
a machine
with
fuel
in
the
tank
inside a
building where fumes may reach a spark, open flame,
or
any
other
source
of
ignition, such
as
a
water
heater, furnace,
or
clothes
dryer.
Allow
the engine
to
cool before storing in any enclosure.
HYDRAULIC
SYSTEM
SAFETY
The hydraulic system
of
the machine requires careful inspection
along
with
the mechanical parts.
Be
sure
to
replace frayed, kinked,
cracked,
or
otherwise
damaged
hydraulic
hoses
or
hydraulic
components.
Hydraulic fluid can result in severe burns. Fluid in the hydraulic
system
can
penetrate skin and result in serious
injury
or
death.
Be
sure
to
stop the engine and relieve hydraulic pressure before
doing any
work
on hydraulic parts.
Keep body and hands away
from
pin holes
or
nozzles
that
expel
hydraulic fluid when under pressure.
Use
paper
or
cardboard,
not
hands,
to
search
for
leaks.
Ensure all hydraulic fluid connections are
tight
and all hydraulic
hoses and lines are in good condition before applying pressure
to
the
system.
Do
not
remove
the
cap
from
the
hydraulic tank
or
reservoir while
the
machine is running. The
tank
could
contain
hot
oil
under
pressure, which could result in serious injury.
Do
not
adjust
the
pressure
setting
on
the
hydraulic
pump
or
valve.
If
injured by escaping fluid, no
matter
how
small the wound
is,
see
a doctor
at
once. A typical injection injury may
be
a small wound
that
does
not
look serious. However, severe infection
or
reaction
can
result
if
proper
medical
treatment
is
not
administered
immediately by a doctor
who
is
familiar
with
injection injuries.

ADD
GASOLINE TO ENGINE
Gasoline
is
highly
flammable
and
explosive.
You
can
be
burned or seriously injured
when
handling
fuel.
Use
extreme
care
when
handling
gasoline.
Fill
the
fuel tank outdoors,
never
indoors.
Gasoline
vapors
can
ignite
if
they collect
inside
an
enclosure.
Explosion
can
result.
1. The engine must be
off
and allowed
to
cool
at
leasttwo
minutes
before adding fuel.
2. Remove
the
fuel filler cap and fill the tank.
(See

will only function properly
when
the fuel tank
has
been
filled to the
recommended
level.
Overfilling
may cause permanent damage
to
evaporative
emissions
control
system
components.
Filling to
the
recommended
level
ensures
a
vapor
gap
required
to
allow (or fuel
expansion.
Pay
close
attention while
filling
the
fuel
tank to
ensure
that
the
recommended
fuel/eve/ inside the tank
is
not

OIL
TO
OIL
TANK
1.
Make sure the log splitter
is
on a flat, level surface.
2.
Remove the oil dipstick from the oil tank.
Never
remove
the
hydraulic
oil
dipstick
when
the
engine
is
running
or
hot.
Hot
oil
can
escape
causing
severe
burns.
Allow
the
log
splitter
to
cool
completely
before
removing
the
hydraulic
oil
dipstick.
3.
The recommended hydraulic oil type:
10WAW32
ASLEH-150
15032
4. Hydraulic oil level will read half way
to
low
on
the dipstick.
There
is
always hydraulic oil in
the
cylinder, which will
not
read
on the dipstick.
~
Completely install the dipstick
when
checking
oil
~level.
5.
Start the engine and
use
the control valve handle
to
extend
and retract the wedge five times
to
remove air from the high
pressure lines.
6.
With
the wedge retracted and engine off, check the oil level
again. Fill
if
necessary.
7.
Cycle the cylinder again until
it
has
a constant speed. This
indicates
that
all air
has
been expelled.
Maintenance I 22
STORAGE
Follow the instructions below

coolS minutes before storing.
3.
Clear the debris from the beam, wedge, and end plate. Use
a damp cloth
to
clear exterior surfaces
of
the engine and log

Use
an
air compressor (25

4.
Refer
to
the engine manual
for
proper engine storage instructions.
Gasoline

in
the
fuel
system
or
on
carburetor
parts.
~
For
engine
fuel
that
is
stored
less
than
30
days,
add
Lll
a fuel stabilizer to
keep
the
fuel
fresh.
Turn

ventilated
area.
~
Stay away from
sources
of
heat,
flame,
or sparks
Lll
while
handling
fuel.
Clean
up
fuel
spills
immediately.
5.
Store the log

in a location away from corrosive
materials, sources
of
heat, open flames, sparks,
or
pilot
lights.
Never store the
log
splitter inside
where
there
is
a
source
of
heat or
an
open
flame,
spark,
or
pilot
light,
such
as
a water
heater,
space
heater,
furnace,
~
clothes
dryer,
or other
gas
appliance.
EVEN
IF
the
log
Lll
splitter's
fuel
tank
is
empty,
residual
gasoline
vapors
could
ignite.
Never
store
the
log
splitter
near
fertilizer or
any
other
corrosive
material.
6.
Store gasoline in a cool,
