13.1 Lifting and lowering the splitting blade

Place the middle part of the log to the middle of the splitting blade by lifting and lowering
(lever 5B on page 12).

13.2 Replacing the splitting blade

STOP THE LOG SPLITTER BEFORE REPLACING THE SPLITTING BLADE!
WARNING! HANDLE THE BLADE WITH CARE!
Note that the blade must not be down when you remove the locking pin!
1. Lift the splitting blade and remove the locking pin (Figure 13.2a)
2. Lower the blade all the way down (5b3, p.12). This releases it from the adjusting joint.
Grab the back of the blade from the operator's side.
Lift the blade off (Figure 13.2b).
To replace the blade, perform the steps in reverse order.
