THE KINETIC LOG SPLITTER OPERATES DIFFERENTLY THAN A
HYDRAULIC SPLITTER. NOT OPERATING THE MACHINE PROPERLY WILL
RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE. ALWAYS FOLLOW THESE
NOTICES:
Do not be timid. A rapid movement of the Engagement Handle is
necessary for the Rack and Pinion to engage and disengage fully without
damage.
The Engagement Handle should never be stopped in any location
between the fully forward or fully backward positions.
Do not hold the Handle in the forward position when the Ram stops
moving forward. Always pull the Engagement Handle RAPIDLY to the
back (Auto-Retract) position as soon as the Log is split or when the Ram
is at the end of the stroke or when the Ram stops moving forward due to
a tough log.
1. Place the log on the Log Splitter. Grasp the log on the sides near the middle
of the block (Figure 9). Center the log, side-to-side, on the rail of the Log
Splitter, making sure that one end is against the Splitting Wedge.
The engagement Handle must be held fully in the Split Position against
the hard stop when splitting. Failure to do so may result in kickback of
the Handle.
2. With one hand, actuate and hold the Two Hand Operation Handle towards
you, then RAPIDLY actuate the Engagement Handle fully towards the Motor
until it contacts the hard stop and hold firmly until the Log is split (Figure
10).
3. IMMEDIATELY AFTER the log is split, actuate and hold the Engagement
Handle to the Auto-Retract position to allow the Ram to return. If the Ram
stops before the end of the stroke while splitting a tough log, quickly actuate
the Engagement Handle back to the Auto-Retract position.
Splitting Tough Logs
If the Ram stops before the end of the stroke while splitting a tough Log, quickly
actuate the Engagement Handle back to the Auto-Retract position. Let the Ram
return and allow the Flywheels to gain momentum for another full power split.
