is dangerous and may damage the splitter.
Never split two logs at the same time. One of them may be ejected and hit you.
Store idle splitter. When splitter is not in use, store it in a secure place out of the reach of
children. Inspect it for good working condition prior to storage and before re-use.

FREEING A JAMMED LOG

If a log becomes jammed or stuck, follow these steps.
1. Step onto Down Pedal and lower the workbench platform by pushing by hand or applying
pressure to the platform.
2. Next, make sure there is NO pressure on the jammed log, workbench platform, or splitting
wedge.
3. Remove by hand jammed log and any log pieces or debris. If unable to remove by hand,
use rubber mallet and hammer to pry jammed log away from wedge or jammed area.
4. Once free, check that all debris and any log pieces are clear before starting to split
additional logs.
