FOR YOUR SAFETY
PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL SAFETY RULES BEFORE
ASSEMBLING AND USING THIS LOG SPLITTER. SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE USE.
RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
• Use ANSI approved safety googles at all times.
• Keep a safe distance from unit when unclipping. Keep face, head, arms and
hands away from the bar while operating the unit.
• Keep children and bystanders a safe distance away from unit while operating.
• Maintain good balance while operating unit. If needed, hold onto
something stable while stepping down on pedal.
• Use this log splitter on the floor in a horizontal position. Improper use will
create risk of injury.
HELPFUL HINTS
• To keep the unit clean and operating smoothly, keep moving parts
lubricated with an anti-rust machine oil.
• Wet or non-seasoned wood is more difficult to split than dry wood because
the fibres stick together. Reversing the block and splitting from the other
end may help if you cannot pull the wood apart.
• Large or multiple knots in a log make splitting more difficult. Usually if the
log is rotated so that the knots are vertical to the blade, the wood will split
more easily and less stress is placed on the log splitter. This will reduce
wear and tear or the possibility of damaging the log splitter.
• Damage from over stress or abuse may void the warranty on your log
splitter. This splitter is not designed to replace heavy duty hydraulically
powered equipment.
