OPERATION
1. Read the Operator’s Manual completely before attempting to use this log
splitter. 2. Do not allow anyone to operate your log splitter who has not read
the Operator’s Manual or has not been instructed on the safe use of
the log splitter. 3. Never allow children or untrained adults to operate this
machine. 4. Never leave the machine unattended with the engine running. 5.
Never operate the machine when under the influence of alcohol, drugs or
medication 6. Many accidents occur when more than one (1) person operates the
log splitter. If you are receiving assistance in loading logs to be
split, never actuate controls until all people are clear of the area. 7. Never
allow anyone to ride on the machine during use or during operation. 8. Never
transport cargo on the log splitter. 9. Always operate the log splitter with
all safety equipment in place and all controls properly adjusted for safe
operation. 10. High fluid pressures are contained in hydraulic log splitters.
Pressurized hydraulic fluid escaping through a pin hole opening can puncture
skin and cause sever bleeding and result in blood poisoning. Therefore, the
following instructions should be heeded at all times. Be sure to confirm
hose connections and hose clamps are tight before each use. It is possible for
connections to vibrate loose over
time Do not operate the unit with frayed, kinked, cracked or damaged hoses,
fittings, or tubing. Stop the engine and relieve hydraulic system pressure
before changing or adjusting fittings, hoses, tubing, or other system
components. Do not adjust the pressure settings of the pump or valve. The
factory presets are tested for optimal system performance.
Tampering with or modifying these settings will render your product warranty
null, and void. Do not check for leaks with your hand. Leaks can be detected
by passing cardboard or wood over the suspected area.
Look for discoloration on the surface of the cardboard or wood plank. If
injured by escaping fluid, see a doctor at once. Serious infection or allergic
reaction can develop if proper medical treatment is not administered
immediately. 11. Keep the operation zone and adjacent area clear for safe,
secure footing. 12. Always keep hands and feet clear of moving parts. 13. If
your log splitter is equipped with an internal-combustion engine and intended
for use near any unimproved forest, brush, or grass covered land, the engine
exhaust should be equipped with a spark arrestor. Make sure you comply with
local, state, and federal codes. Take appropriate fire-fighting equipment with
you. 14. Log splitters should be used only for splitting wood. Do not use for
other purposes unless the manufacturer provides attachments and instructions
for such purposes. 15. When loading a ram-type log splitter, place your hands
on the sides of the log, not the ends. Never place your hands or any part of
your body between a log and any part of the log splitter 16. Only split wood
WITH the grain. NEVER split perpendicular to the grain. 17. On ram-type log
splitters, never attempt to split more than one log at a time unless the ram
has been fully retracted and a second log is needed to complete the splitting
of the first log. 18. On ram-type log splitters when the logs are not squared,
the longest portion of the log should be rotated down and the most squared end
placed against the ram. 19. Use only your hand to operate the log splitter
controls, never kick the handle with your feet. 20. Do not refuel the engine
until it has cooled for several minutes.
- Please read Alphaworks “Gasoline Engine Manual” for engine operation requirements and precautions.
Add Hydraulic Oil DO NOT remove the hydraulic oil fill cap when the engine is running or hot. Hot oil can escape causing severe burns. Always allow the log splitter to cool completely before removing the hydraulic oil cap. High fluid pressure and temperatures are created in the hydraulic log splitters. Hydraulic fluid will escape through a pin-size hole opening and can puncture skin. Inspect hydraulic system regularly for possible leaks. Never check for leaks with your hand while the system is pressurized. Seek medical attention immediately if injured by escaping fluid.
To check hydraulic oil level, insert the dipstick into fill neck until it stops. Remove and read level. Do not thread dipstick into fill neck when checking oil. When the outdoor temperature is below 32°F , Dexron III transmission fluid can be used. 1. Make sure the log splitter is on a flat, level surface. 2. Remove the dipstick from the oil tank. 3. Add 1.6gallon of hydraulic oil – AW32 / AW46 4. Check hydraulic oil level with oil dipstick. The oil level should be on the dipstick. 5. Tighten the dipstick. 6. Start engine (see Starting the Engine in the Operation section). 7. Extend and retract the cylinder to purge air from the hydraulic system. Cylinder motion should be smooth and continuous.
9
8. Shut-off engine (see Stopping the Engine in the Operation section). 9.
Hydraulic oil can be added appropriately when the cylinder thrust is
insufficient.
For safety reasons, hydraulic oil, oil and fuel are not included in the
package.
CHANGING BEAM FROM HORIZONTAL TO VERTICAL ORIENTATION
When logs are too heavy to lift, log splitter beam can be moved from
horizontal to vertical orientation. To change from horizontal to vertical
orientation: 1. Adjust the L pin from horizontal to vertical position and
clamp it in the V slot. 2. Standing on the side of the gear pump ,(opposite
