STARTING & STOPPING THE ENGINE
Refer to the Engine Operator's manual packed with your log splitter for
instructions on starting and stopping the engine.
OPERATING POSITIONS
1. Place the log splitter on flat, dry, solid ground.
2. Block the front and back of both wheels.
3. Place the beam in either the horizontal or vertical position and lock into
place.
• Take extra care when raising and lowering the beam as it is fairly
heavy. Having a second person assist with raising or lowering the
beam is recommended. Be sure to keep hands away from any
possible pinch points.
4. To place the beam in the Vertical Position proceed as follows:
• Always use the log splitter in the vertical position when splitting heavy
logs.
1) Pull the horizontal beam lock out to release the beam and pivot the
beam to the vertical position.
2) To lock the beam in the vertical position, pull out the vertical beam
lock and rotate it to secure the beam.
