4
201313 – 32-TON GAS POWERED LOG SPLITTER
WARNING
Always keep hands and body parts away from nozzles or pinholes that could
eject hydraulic oil under high pressure in the event of an oil leak. NEVER use
bare hands to search for leaks. Leaks can be detected by using cardboard,
paper or scrap wood over the suspected area.
WARNING
Towing Hazard
Always check with your local municipality, state or provincial regulations
regarding towing, lights and licensing before towing your log splitter on
public roads. BEFORE towing, review all safety warnings in your towing vehicle
manual. Drive safely. Be aware of the added length of the log splitter. NEVER
ride or transport cargo on the log splitter. DO NOT exceed the maximum 45 MPH
(72 KM/H) towing speed.
WARNING
Before removing the pin installed on the front support leg, make sure the
hitch is installed onto the vehicle. Releasing the pin before will cause
support leg to slide up and possibly cause injury.
WARNING
Rapid retraction of the starter cord will pull hand and arm towards the engine
faster than you can let go. Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains could
result. Unintentional startup can result in entanglement, traumatic amputation
or laceration.
When starting engine, pull the starter cord slowly until resistance is felt
and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback.
CAUTION

201313 – 32-TON GAS POWERED LOG SPLITTER
Fuel Safety
DANGER
GASOLINE AND GASOLINE VAPORS ARE HIGHLY FLAMMABLE AND EXPLOSIVE.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
Gasoline and gasoline vapors: Gasoline vapors are highly flammable and
explosive. Gasoline vapors can cause a fire or explosion if ignited.
Gasoline is a liquid fuel and the resulting gasoline vapors can
ignite and cause a fire or explosion. Gasoline is a skin irritant and needs
to be cleaned up
immediately if spilled on skin or clothes. Gasoline has a distinctive odor,
this will help detect potential
leaks quickly. In any petroleum gas fire, flames should not be extinguished
unless by doing so the fuel supply valve can be turned OFF. This is because if
a fire is extinguished and a supply of fuel is not turned OFF, then an
explosion hazard could be created. Gasoline vapors expand and contract with
ambient temperatures. Never fill the gasoline tank past the red FULL indicator
on the fuel filter, as gasoline vapors needs room to expand if temperatures
rise.
WARNING
When adding or removing gasoline: Do not light or smoke cigarettes. Always
stop the engine and allow to cool for a minimum of two minutes before
refueling. Always loosen gasoline cap slowly to release vapor pressure and to
keep fuel from escaping around the gasoline cap. Always replace and tighten
the gasoline cap securely after fueling. Never remove the gasoline cap or add
gasoline while the engine is running or when the engine is hot. Always fill or
drain gasoline outdoors in a well-ventilated area. Do not pump gasoline
directly into the log splitter at the gas station. Always store gasoline in an
EPA/CARB compliant container or to transfer the gasoline to the log splitter.
Do not overfill the gasoline tank. Always keep gasoline away from sparks, open
flames, pilot lights, heat and other sources of ignition.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
When starting the log splitter: Do not attempt to start a damaged log
splitter. Always check that the gasoline cap, air filter, spark plug, fuel
lines and exhaust system are properly in place. Always allow spilled gasoline
to evaporate fully before attempting to start the engine. Always be certain
that the log splitter is resting firmly on level ground.
WARNING
When operating the log splitter: Do not move or tip the log splitter during
operation.
WARNING
When transporting or servicing the log splitter: Always check that the fuel
valve is in the OFF position and the gasoline tank is empty. Disconnect the
spark plug wire.
WARNING
When storing the log splitter: Store away from sparks, open flames, pilot
lights, heat and other sources of ignition. Do not store log splitter or
gasoline near furnaces, water heaters, or any other appliances that produce
heat or have automatic ignitions.
DANGER
Never place a gasoline container, gasoline tank, or any combustible material
in the path of the exhaust stream during operation of the engine.
WARNING
Never use a gasoline container, gasoline tank, or any other fuel item that is
broken, cut, torn or damaged.

19
201313 – 32-TON GAS POWERED LOG SPLITTER
WARNING
Pouring gasoline too fast through the fuel screen may result in blow back of
gasoline at the operator while filling.
NOTICE
The engine works well with 10% or less ethanol blended gasoline. When using
ethanol-gasoline blends there are some issues worth noting: Ethanol-gasoline
blends can absorb more water than
gasoline alone. These ethanol blends can eventually separate, leaving
water or a watery goo in the tank, fuel valve and carburetor. The compromised
gasoline can be drawn into the carburetor and cause damage to the engine
and/or create potential hazards. If a fuel stabilizer is used, confirm that
it is formulated to work with ethanol-gasoline blends. Any damages or
hazards caused by using ethanol blended gasoline higher than 10% by volume,
improperly stored gasoline, and/or improperly formulated stabilizers, are not
covered by manufacturer’s warranty. It is advisable to always shut off the
gasoline supply and run the engine to starvation after each use. See Storage
instructions for extended non-use.
Add Hydraulic Oil
If your log splitter was delivered pre-assembled, follow these instructions:
- Position the log splitter on a flat, level surface. 2. Remove the plastic
shipping plug from the oil tank on the top
of the tank (A) and discard. Replace with the steel oil plug (with breather hole) shipped with your log splitter (A).
CAUTION
Do not run the log splitter with temporary shipping plug.
Pressure will build up inside the tank and potential damage could occur.
NOTICE
Hydraulic tank is deliberately overfilled before shipping from the factory. When the unit has been operated, oil will adjust to proper level.
ASSEMBLY
3. After running and cycling the unit several minutes (purging air from the
system), turn off the engine and check the hydraulic oil level using the oil
sight glass. Oil level should visibly fill the glass sight.
If your log splitter was delivered unassembled, follow these instructions: 1.

Starting the Engine
1. Make certain the log splitter is on a flat, level surface. 2. Move the
fuel valve to the “ON” position.
23
201313 – 32-TON GAS POWERED LOG SPLITTER 3. Move the choke lever to the “CHOKE” position.
OPERATION
NOTICE
If the engine starts but does not run make certain that the log splitter is on
a flat, level surface. The engine is equipped with a low oil sensor that will
prevent the engine from running when the oil level falls below a critical
threshold.
Stopping the Engine
In an emergency, turn the engine switch to the “OFF” position.
4. Pull the starter cord until resistance is felt and then pull rapidly.
5. As engine warms up, move the choke lever to the “RUN” position.
NOTICE
Keep choke lever in “CHOKE” position for 2 pulls of the recoil starter. After
second pull, move choke lever to the “RUN” position for up to the next 3 pulls
of the recoil starter. Too much choke leads to spark plug fouling/engine
flooding due to the lack of incoming air. This will cause the engine not to
start.
Under normal operation: 1. Turn the fuel valve to the “OFF” position.
2. Let the engine run until fuel starvation has stopped the engine. This
usually takes few minutes.
Important: Always ensure that the fuel valve is in the “OFF” position when the
engine is not in use.
NOTICE
If the engine will not be used for a period of two (2) weeks or longer, please
see the Storage section for proper engine and fuel storage.

201313 – 32-TON GAS POWERED LOG SPLITTER
Log Splitter Operation
1. ALWAYS wear ear and eye protection, protective clothing and safety gear.
2. Block tires and ensure support leg is secure to prevent unintended
movement of the log splitter during operation.
3. Set log splitter in either the horizontal or vertical position.
NOTICE
HORIZONTAL position is used for lighter logs that can easily be loaded onto
the beam. VERTICAL position is used for light logs as well as heavy logs that
are difficult to load onto the beam. Back injury can result from lifting logs
onto the log splitter if proper lifting techniques are not used.
OPERATION
6. Make sure all limbs are clear of crush zones. 7. Use your right hand to
push the control valve handle forward
(towards the end plate) to split the log. 8. Remove left hand from the log
once the wedge begins to
contact with the log. Continue holding the control handle in the forward
position until the log splits. 9. Push the auto control valve handle backward
to return the wedge to its original position. 10. Clear the split wood from
the work zone.
NOTICE
It is normal for the hydraulic fluid to appear foamy/frothy during operation.
This can be caused by agitated oil in the tank collecting air.
NOTICE
If a log gets stuck, embedded or will not split completely, push the control
handle in the reverse direction and allow the log splitter to strip the log
from the wedge. ALWAYS keep hands clear of the log and wedge while it is
retracting.
4. Load a log onto the beam against the end plate (MAX LOG LENGTH 24 in.
[61 cm]).
5. To stabilize the log, place your left hand on the side of the log.
Vertical
Horizontal
WARNING
Never place your hand on the ends of the log, between the log and end plate or
the log and the splitting wedge.
WARNING
Only one operator permitted. The adult who loads and stabilizes the log, must
be the person who operates the control handle.
NOTICE
The cylinder stroke is designed so the wedge stops approximately 1.5 in. (3.8
cm) from the end plate.
Operation at High Altitude
The density of air at high altitude is lower than at sea level. Engine power
is reduced as the air mass and air-fuel ratio decrease. Engine power and log
splitter output will be reduced approximately 3½% for every 1000 ft. of
elevation above sea level. This is a natural trend and cannot be changed by
adjusting the engine. At high altitudes increased exhaust emissions can also
result due to the increased enrichment of the air fuel ratio. Other high
altitude issues can include hard starting, increased fuel consumption and
spark plug fouling.
To alleviate high altitude issues other than the natural power loss, CPE can
provide a high altitude carburetor main jet. The alternative main jet and
installation instructions can be obtained by contacting our Technical Support
Team. Installation instructions are also available in the Technical Bulletin
area of the CPE website.
The part number and recommended minimum altitude for the application of the
high altitude carburetor main jet is listed in the table below.
25
201313 – 32-TON GAS POWERED LOG SPLITTER
In order to select the correct high altitude main jet it is necessary to identify the carburetor model. For this purpose, a code is stamped on the side of the carburetor. Select the correct high altitude jet part number corresponding to the carburetor code found on your particular carburetor.
Carb. Code
16100000052
High Alt. Jet Part Number Min. Altitude
16161-000079
3000-6000 ft. (914.4-1828.8 m)
16161-000031
6000-8000 ft. (1828.8-2438.4 m)
WARNING
Operation using the alternative main jet at elevations lower than the
recommended minimum altitude can damage the engine. For operation at lower
elevations, the originally supplied standard main jet must be used. Operating
the engine with the wrong engine configuration at a given altitude may
increase its emissions and decrease fuel efficiency and performance.

CHAMPION POWER EQUIPMENT, INC. (CPE) AND THE UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECTION AGENCY (U.S. EPA)
EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY
Your Champion Power Equipment (CPE) engine complies with U.S. EPA emissions
regulations.
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS:
The US EPA and CPE are pleased to explain the Federal Emission Control Systems
Warranty on your 2024 small off-road engine (SORE) and engine powered
equipment. New engines and equipment must be designed, built and equipped, at
the time of sale, to meet U.S. EPA regulations for small off-road engines
(SORE). CPE warrants the emission control system on your small off-road engine
(SORE) and equipment for the period of time listed below, provided there has
been no abuse, neglect, unapproved modification, or improper maintenance of
your equipment. Your emission control system may include parts such as the
carburetor, fuel-injection system, the ignition system, catalytic converter
and fuel lines. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other
emission related assemblies. Where a warrantable condition exits, CPE will
repair your small off-road engine (SORE) at no cost to you including
diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER’S EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY COVERAGE:
This emission control system is warranted for two years, subject to provisions
set forth below. If, during the warranty period, an emission related part on
your engine is defective in materials or workmanship, the part will be
repaired or replaced by CPE.
OWNER WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the small off-road engine (SORE) owner, you are responsible for the
performance of the required maintenance listed in your Owner’s Manual. CPE
recommends that you retain all your receipts covering maintenance on your
small off-road engine, but CPE cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of
receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled
maintenance. As the small off-road engine (SORE) owner, you should however be
aware that CPE may deny you warranty coverage if your small, off-road engine
(SORE) or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or
unapproved modifications. You are responsible for presenting your small off-
road engine (SORE) to an Authorized CPE service outlet or alternate service
outlet as described in (3)(f.) below, CPE dealer or CPE, Las Vegas, NV. as
soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should be completed in a
reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days. If you have any questions
regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact:

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY
The following are specific provisions relative to your Emission Control System
(ECS) Warranty Coverage.
1. APPLICABILITY: This warranty shall apply to 1997 and later model year
small off-road engines (SORE). The ECS Warranty Period shall begin on the date
the new engine or equipment is delivered to its original, end-use purchaser,
and shall continue for 24 consecutive months thereafter.
2. GENERAL EMISSIONS WARRANTY COVERAGE CPE warrants to the original, end-use
purchaser of the new engine or equipment and to each subsequent purchaser that
each of its small off-road engines (SORE) is:
2a. Designed, built and equipped so as to conform to U.S. EPA emissions
standards for spark-ignited engines at or below 19 kilowatts.
2b. Free from defects in materials and workmanship that cause the failure of a
warranted part to be identical in all material respects to the part as
described in the engine manufacturer’s application for certification for a
period of two years.
3. THE WARRANTY ON EMISSION-RELATED PARTS WILL BE INTERPRETED AS FOLLOWS:
3a. Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required
maintenance in the Owners Manual shall be warranted for the ECS Warranty
Period. If any such part fails during the ECS Warranty Period, it shall be
repaired or replaced by CPE according to Subsection “d” below. Any such part
repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be warranted for any
remainder of the ECS Warranty Period.
3b. Any warranted, emissions-related part which is scheduled only for regular
inspection as specified in the Owners Manual shall be warranted for the ECS
Warranty Period. A statement in such written instructions to the effect of
“repair or replace as necessary”, shall not reduce the ECS Warranty Period.
Any such part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be warranted
for the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period.
3c. Any warranted, emissions-related part which is scheduled for replacement
as required maintenance in the Owner’s Manual shall be warranted for the
period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part.
If the part fails prior to the first scheduled replacement, the part shall be
repaired or replaced by CPE according to Subsection “d” below. Any such
emissionsrelated part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty, shall be
warranted for the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period prior to the first
scheduled replacement point for such emissions-related part.
3d. Repair or replacement of any warranted, emissions-related part under this
ECS Warranty shall be performed at no charge to the owner at a CPE Authorized
Service Outlet.
3e. The owner shall not be charged for diagnostic labor which leads to the
determination that a part covered by the ECS Warranty is in fact defective,
provided that such diagnostic work is performed at a CPE Authorized Service
Outlet.
3f. CPE shall pay for covered emissions warranty repairs at non-authorized
service outlets under the following circumstances:
i. The service is required in a population center with a population over
100,000 according to U.S. Census 2000 without a CPE Authorized Service Outlet
AND
ii.The service is required more than 100 miles from a CPE Authorized Service
Outlet. The 100 mile limitation does not apply in the following states:
Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New
Mexico, Oregon, Texas, Utah and Wyoming.
3g. CPE shall be liable for damages to other original engine components or
approved modifications proximately caused by a failure under warranty of an
emission-related part covered by the ECS Warranty.
3h. Throughout the ECS Warranty Period, CPE shall maintain a supply of
warranted emission-related parts sufficient to meet the expected demand for
such emission-related parts.
3i. Any CPE Authorized and approved emission-related replacement part may be
used in the performance of any ECS Warranty maintenance or repair and will be
provided without charge to the owner. Such use shall not reduce CPE’s warranty
obligation.
3j. Unapproved add-on or modified parts may not be used to modify or repair a
CPE engine. Such use voids this ECS Warranty and shall be sufficient grounds
for disallowing an ECS Warranty claim. CPE shall not be liable hereunder for
failures of any warranted parts of a CPE engine caused by the use of such an
unapproved add-on or modified part.
