8 SPLITTING AND CUTTING GUARDS

The splitting and cutting guards have two positions. The splitting guards move freely, and
are not locked for either splitting or cutting. The splitting and cutting modes can be used
when the guards are down.
If you lift the guards while the log splitter is in operation, the applicable process, for
example cutting, is stopped.

8.1 UP position

The guards are lifted up during maintenance, for example. When the output conveyor is in
the storage position, the splitting guard must be up. When the guard is up, the log splitter
cannot be used for splitting or cutting.
You can lift the guards from the lifting handles whenever necessary. The log splitter stops
automatically when either of the guards is lifted.
You can lower the splitting guard straight down. BE CAREFUL when lowering the guard
so that it does not hit you on the head. Ensure to also avoid your hands from getting
caught. Never drop the guard down, but lower it steadily and slowly.
The cutting guard cannot be lowered directly from the lifting handle. You must support the
cutting guard from the lifting handle while lifting the locking lever.
