Operation
b. Only using your hand, push the control
lever down (towards the log). If the log
moves, before it is contacted by the
splitting wedge, release the control
lever and then reposition the log.
Operate the log splitter only when
standing in the safe operating area,
as shown in the picture.
WARNING
Make sure you stand clear from the
engine's exhaust. Hot exhaust is
intense and can cause serious injury.
c. Hold the control lever, extending the split-
ting wedge, until the log is split or the cylin-
der rod stops at its maximum travel posi-
tion. Stop the log splitter (forward move-
ment), at any point in the splitting process,
if you feel an unsafe log splitting condition
is occurring. As the log is being split, DO
NOT reach forward and attempt to catch
the split wood — let it fall to the ground.
d. Once the wedge reaches its full forward
travel, pull back on the control lever to the
full retract position. The ram of the cylin-
der will automatically retract into the cylin-
der. It is not necessary to hold the control
lever as the cylinder retracts. Stop the
wedge if the log sticks (see caution
below). When the cylinder is fully retract-
ed, the control valve will automatically shift
to a neutral position.
e. DO NOT load another log or remove split
pieces until the wedge has completely
stopped and the control handle automati-
cally returns to the neutral position.

Depending on the type of wood being split, a log may not always break
into two pieces and fall to the ground. If a log sticks to the wedge, place
the valve handle in the neutral position (stop the wedge from retracting)
and carefully remove the log from the wedge.
attached to the wedge when it is fully retracted could lead to possible injury
and/or damage to the log splitter.
