2. General Safety Rules

• Damage caused by disregard of certain guidelines in this manual is not covered by the warranty and the dealer
will not accept responsibility for any ensuing defects or problems.
• Never use the log splitter under the influence of alcohol, drugs, medicines or when tired. A clear mind is essential
for safety.
• Never wear loose, unbuttoned clothing which may become trapped into moving parts.
• Never stand on the log splitter.
• Never operate the log splitter without supervision. Switch off the power and make sure the log splitter has stopped
completely before leaving.
• Make sure the power cable is fully protected from the log splitter.
• Keep your hands at a safe distance when handling the log. Never put your hands between the pusher and the
wedge.
• Do not load the log in the log splitter while the ram is in motion.
• Keep fingers and hands away from half-split logs. These logs may suddenly close and trap fingers.
• Always set the log on the guides and never force the blade.
• Do not use the log splitter in the vicinity of flammable vapours and substances.
• Make sure that the available voltage does not exceed the voltage stated in the specifications of this manual.
• Hydraulic system:
Never operate the log splitter if there is hazard present in the hydraulic system. Before using the log splitter check
for hydraulic leaks. Make sure the log splitter and your work area are clean and free of oil spills. Hydraulic fluid
may cause slipping or fire hazards.
• Electrical safety:
Never operate the log splitter if there is an electrical hazard. Do not operate this log splitter in wet conditions, with
an improper electrical cable or extension cable. This log splitter must be connected to a properly grounded mains
outlet with 16A circuit breaker only.
• Physical hazards:
Log splitting may create special physical hazards. Never operate this log splitter unless you are wearing proper
gloves, hard-toed shoes and approved eye protection. Make sure the splinters do not jam the log splitter. Never
load the log splitter with logs which are too small or too large to fit the log retention brackets. Do not load logs
containing nails, wire or other debris. Clean up as you work: accumulated split wood and wood chips can create a
hazardous work environment. Do not work in a cluttered work area. Keep bystanders, children and unauthorised
away from the log splitter.
