SYMBOL IDENTIFICATION

Read this manual completely.
Save these instructions.
Serious injury or death can result if the safety instructions are not followed. Everyone who operates the breaker must read and fully understand all safety rules, operating instructions and maintenance instructions and service instructions. You must be 16 years of age or older to operate this machine. Keep untrained persons away.

• Turn the engine off before leaving the breaker unattended.

Crushing hazard.
The wedge can cut skin and break bones. Keep both hands away from the wedge and end plate.

• Serious accidents can occur when other people are allowed inside the working area. Keep all others out of the work area while operating the control valve.
• Do not wear loose clothing. Can become entangled in moving parts of the breaker.
• Only use the log splitter in daylight so you can see what you are doing.

Flying objects.
Pieces of logs can fly off while splitting. Wear safety glasses. Serious eye injury may occur.

Skin injection hazard.
High-pressure fluid can be injected under the skin and cause serious injury, including amputation.

• Make sure all connections are tight before applying pressure. Relieve system pressure before servicing.
• Do not check for leaks by hand. Instead, use a piece of cardboard to check for leaks.
• If a cut injury occurs, seek professional help immediately

Risk of fire and explosion.
Hot exhaust gases from the engine can cause a fire. Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive. You can be burned or seriously injured when handling fuel.

• Place the muffler at least 2 metres away from combustible objects.

• Before adding fuel, stop the engine and keep heat, sparks and flames away.
  Do not add fuel when the engine is running or still hot. Do not smoke near the engine.

• Do not pump fuel directly into the engine at the service station. Static charge can build up and ignite the fuel.
  Use a UL approved fuel container to transfer gas to the engine. Clean up fuel spills immediately.

• Only store and handle fuel outdoors. Gasoline vapors can ignite if they accumulate inside an enclosure. Explosion may occur.

• Do not change or add to exhaust systems. Fire may result.

• Do not change or add to fuel tanks or fuel lines. Fire may result.

• Before each use, check fuel tank and fuel lines for leaks. Any fuel leak is a fire hazard. Repair any fuel leaks before starting the engine.

• During transport, take precautions to ensure that the machine does not tip over and cause a fire hazard from leaking fuel.

3. Screw on the fuel cap and wipe up any spilled fuel.

DANGER
Log splitter engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a colourless, odourless, poisonous gas. Breathing carbon
monoxide will cause nausea, dizziness, fainting or death. If you begin to feel dizzy or faint, get fresh air immediately. Operate the log splitter outdoors only in a well-ventilated area. DO NOT operate the log splitter inside any building, enclosure or compartment.
DO NOT allow exhaust fumes to enter a confined area through windows, doors, vents or other openings. CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD, using a log splitter indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES.

DANGER
Fuel and fuel vapours are highly flammable and extremely explosive. Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death. Unintentional starting can cause entanglement, traumatic amputations or lacerations. Use only regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum 86 octane rating. DO NOT mix oil and gasoline together. Fill the tank approximately ¼” below the top of the tank to allow for fuel expansion. DO NOT fill the fuel tank indoors or when the engine is running or hot.

4. Check hydraulic oil level.
5. Start the engine and use the control lever to extend and retract the wedge several times to remove air from the lines.
6. With the wedge retracted, recheck the hydraulic oil level and top up if necessary

WARNING
DO NOT remove the hydraulic oil filler cap when the engine is running or hot. Hot oil can escape and cause severe burns. Always allow the log splitter to cool completely before removing the hydraulic oil cap.

WARNING
High fluid pressures and temperatures are created in hydraulic log splitters. Hydraulic fluid will escape through a pinhole opening and can puncture the skin and cause severe blood poisoning.

WARNING
Make sure all fittings are tight and secure before applying pressure. Relieve system pressure before servicing.

WARNING
Ensure that hydraulic hoses do not touch hot surfaces or cutting areas.

WARNING
Hoses must be attached if they are clear of the engine and cutting wedge. To avoid serious personal injury, always inspect hoses before operating the log splitter.

• Serious accidents can occur when others can enter the work area.
• Keep everyone else out of the work area while operating the control lever.
• DO NOT wear loose clothing. It can become entangled in moving parts of the log splitter.
• Only use the log splitter in daylight so you can see what you are doing.

CAUTION

• If a log becomes stuck, wedged or does not split completely, push the control lever in the reverse direction and allow the splitter to remove the log from the wedge.
• Reverse direction and allow the splitter to remove the log from the wedge.
• If the log is still jammed, embedded or does not split, turn off the machine and use a hammer and bar to remove the log.
• bar to remove the log.
• ALWAYS keep hands away from the log and wedge while retracting.
• ALWAYS keep the work area clean and free of split wood and debris.
