AUS Setup/Before starting the equipment/Operation
VI. SETUP
Prepare the workplace where the machine is to be placed. Ensure sufficient room to allow safe work without malfunctions. The machine is designed to operate on a level surface and must be placed securely on stable plain ground.
VII. BEFORE STARTING THE EQUIPMENT
Make sure the machine is completely and expertly assembled. Check before every use: · The connection cables for any defective spots (cracks, cuts etc.). · The machine for any possible damage. · The firm seat of all bolts. · The hydraulic system for leakage. · The oil level.
VENTING, FIG. 7 / 8 m ATTENTION! Before working with the log splitter, vent the hydraulic system. · Release the Venting Screw (12) by a few revolutions so the air can escape from
the oil tank. · Leave the Venting Screw (12) open during the operation. · Before you move the log splitter, close the Venting Screw (12) again in order not to
lose any oil. If the hydraulic system is not vented, the enclosed air will damage the gaskets and with it the complete log splitter.
VIII. OPERATION
Only split plain cut logs.
SWITCHING “ON” AND “OFF”
m ATTENTION! Loosen the Venting Screw (12) two revolutions, before starting work. Close before transport. FIG. 7 / 8
1. Place the splitting material in horizontal direction to the Work Table (3). 2. Your machine is equipped with Two-hands Control System that requires opera-

Operation
right hand controls the Switch (7). 3. Simultaneously push the Hydraulic Lever (10) and the Switch (7) to start splitting
action. 4. Wait until the splitting process is ended and release then the Hydraulic Lever
(10) and the Switch (7). The Splitting wedge (4) is returned to the home position. 5. Afterwards you can remove splitting material.
The log splitter will freeze upon absence of either hand. If you release the Switch (7) the Motor (8) stops. The release of both hands means that the Log Pusher (2) will be retracted.
m ATTENTION! Check the function of the “ON-/OFF” unit before every use by switching on and off once, as described above (Switching “ON” and “OFF”).
Never force your machine for more than 5 seconds by keeping pressure on it to split excessively hard wood. After this time interval, the oil under pressure will be overheated and the machine could be damaged. For such an extremely hard log, rotate it by 90° to see whether it can be split in a different direction. In any case, if you are not able to split the log, this means that its hardness exceeds the capacity of the machine and thus should be discarded to protect the log splitter.
END OF WORK · Release hands from Two-hands Control System. · Pull the power plug. · Close the venting screw (12). · Observe the general maintenance instructions.
HOIST LIMITING, FIG. 1 For short splitting material it is possible to shorten the return movement of the Splitting Wedge (4). To do so, press the Hydraulic Lever (10) and the Switch (7) and let the Log Pusher (2) move just in front of the splitting material. Release the Switch (7) now and mount the Hoist Limiting Ring (13) to the housing and tighten it. Afterwards you can release the Hydraulic Lever (10). The Log Pusher (2) will now be resting in the selected position.
WRONGLY PLACED LOG, FIG. 2 Always set logs firmly on the work table. Make sure logs will not twist, rock or slip while being split. Do not force the blade by splitting logs on the upper part. This will break the blade or damage the machine. Do not attempt to split 2 pieces of logs at the same time. One of them may fly up and hit you.

Operation/Cleaning/Maintenance and repair
JAMMED LOG, FIG. 3 / 4 Do not try to knock the jammed log off. Knocking about will damage the machine or may launch the log and cause accident. 1. Release both controls. 2. After the Log Pusher (2) moves back and completely stops at its starting posi-
tion, insert a wedge wood under the jammed log as shown in the figure. 3. Start the log splitter to push the wedge wood under the jammed one. 4. Repeat above procedure with sharper slope wedge woods until the log is com-
pletely freed.
IX. CLEANING
m IMPORTANT! Always pull out plug each time before carrying out any cleaning. Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at low pressure – Attention! Wear safety glasses for this work. We recommend that you clean the device immediately each time you have finished using it. Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents – these could attack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensure that no water can seep into the device.
X. MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
Carry out refitting, setting and cleaning work only when the motor is switched off. Pull the power plug. An experienced worker can carry out minor repairs on the machine alone. Repair and maintenance work on the electrical system may only be carried out by a qualified electrician.
All protective and safety devices must be reattached immediately after completed repair and maintenance work.
We recommend: · The Splitting Wedge is a wearing part that needs to be sharpened or replaced
after wear. · The combined gripping and controlling device must remain smooth running. Lubri-
cate with a few drops of oil when necessary. · Keep Splitting Wedge drive clean of dirt, wood shavings, bark, etc. · Lubricate slide rails with grease.

Maintenance and repair
SHARPEN THE SPLITTING WEDGE FIG. 1 If the Splitting Wedge (4) is worn out, use an angle grinder and sharpen the edges. If you are not confident contact a professional repair person.
OIL CHANGE FIG. 5 – 7 The hydraulic system is a closed system with oil tank, oil pump and control valve. The system is complete when the machine is delivered, and may not be changed or manipulated. Check hydraulic connections and fittings regularly for air tightness. Tighten when necessary. The oil tank has been filled with high quality oil at the factory. Replace hydraulic oil after 150 hours of use. 1. Make sure all moving parts stop and the log splitter is unplugged. 2. Unscrew Oil Drain Bolt / Dipstick (11) to remove it. 3. Tip the log splitter on the support leg end as shown in fig. 5 over a 4 litre capaci-
ty container to drain the hydraulic oil. Recycle carefully! 4. Tip your machine on the motor end as shown in Fig. 6 to refill about 3.5 L fresh
oil.
5. Clean the surface of the dipstick on the Oil Drain Bolt (11) and put it back into the oil tank while keeping the log splitter vertical. Make sure the level of the refilled oil is just between 2 grooves around the dipstick.
6. Clean the Oil Drain Bolt (11) before threading it back. Make sure it is tightened to avoid leakage before placing the log splitter horizontally. Afterwards, run the machine through several splitting cycles without logs on the work table.
Regularly check the oil level. Too low an oil level damages the oil pump. Regularly check the hydraulic connections and bolts for tightness. Re-tighten if necessary.
Upon low oil level, oil refilling is required. Dispose of the used oil in a correct manner at a public collection facility. It is prohibited to drop old oil on the ground or to mix it with waste. We recommend the following hydraulic oils: · Aral Vitam gf 22 · BP Energol HLP-HM 22 · Mobil DTE 11 · Shell Tellus 22 or oils of same quality. Do not use any other types of oil as they would influence the function of the hydraulic cylinder.
