The operator has the safest and most efficient access to the control valve and the beam in this location. Operating the log splitter in another location can result in serious injury or death. TOP VIEW OPERATOR ZONE ALWAYS block the wheels to prevent movement of the log splitter while in operation. KNOW how to stop the log splitter and disengage the controls before operating it. -
Page 7: Maintenance And Safety
NEVER perform any service or repair on your log splitter without first removing the spark plug wire. ALWAYS perform all recommended maintenance procedures before using your log splitter. ALWAYS check the level of hydraulic oil and engine oil before operation. ALWAYS periodically check that all nuts, bolts, screws, hydraulic fittings and hose clamps are tight. ALWAYS replace all damaged or worn parts immediately. ALWAYS be sure that all replacement parts meet manufacturer’s specifications. MAINTENANCE & SAFETY The hydraulic system of your log splitter requires careful inspection along with the mechanical parts. Be sure to replace frayed, kinked, cracked or otherwise damaged hydraulic hoses or hydraulic components. NEVER check for leaks of hydraulic fluid with your hand. Fluid escaping from a small hole can be almost invisible. -
