Add Hyrdraulic Oil Cont'd.
WARNING
DO NOT remove the hydraulic oil fill cap when the engine
is running or hot . Hot oil can escape causing severe
burns . Always allow the log splitter to cool completely
before removing the hydraulic oil cap .
High fluid pressure and temperatures are created in the
hydraulic log splitters . Hydraulic fluid will escape through
a pin-size hole opening and can puncture skin and cause
severe blood poisoning .
Inspect hydraulic system regularly for possible leaks .
Never check for leaks with your hand while the system
is pressurized . Seek medical attention immediately if
injured by escaping fluid .
