Note! Stop the log splitter and disconnect the tractor output or the electric power cable
from the socket before determining and fixing the fault!

14.2.1 Safe operation of the output conveyor

When using the log splitter and the conveyor, you must monitor the conveyor and ensure
that
- the conveyor belt keeps moving. If it stops, you can first try to use the start and stop
levers (h1-h2) to raise the belt speed to the maximum. But this fails, stop the log splitter
so that you can SAFELY determine what caused the belt stoppage and to fix the problem.
- the 42 Hydro log splitter must always be turned off when maintenance work is being
carried out on the conveyor, or if you are removing pieces of wood, ice, snow etc. from
the belt or frame.
- the conveyor frame and the top and bottom turnover rolls free of ice, snow, and wood
residue.
- there is no snow, ice, or wood residue between the conveyor and the ground. If any exist,
it must be cleaned as often as necessary to ensure that they do not cause damage or
dangerous situations when the log splitter is in use.
- the conveyor is not positioned in such a manner that processed pieces of firewood can
roll back into the splitting groove.
- pieces of firewood fall into the applicable containers, such as a platforms and cages,
when leaving the conveyor.
- the firewood container does not become too full.
- there is at least a 50 cm (19.7 in.) between the pile of firewood and the tip of the
conveyor.
- when moving the conveyor sideways the conveyor does not come into contact with any
processed firewood, platforms, constructions, or buildings.
- when moving the log splitter slightly within the operating environment the conveyor is
moved slowly so that no danger or damage is caused to the log splitter or the conveyor.
- the conveyor is in the transport position if it is being moved more than 5 metres (16.4
in.).
- NOTE! there is enough space above when the log splitter is moved so that the conveyor
fully upright.
