Bleeding The Hydraulic System; Fixing The Log Splitter (Zi-Hs5Tn Only); Operating The Log Splitter - Zipper Maschinen ZI-HS5TN Instrucciones De Servicio

21.1.2 18.1.2 Bleeding the hydraulic system

Never forget to loosen the breather screw before starting to operate the log splitter!
Otherwise, the air in the system will be released and compressed again and again,
which will destroy the seals of the hydraulic circuit and make the log splitter
unusable.
To bleed the hydraulic system, loosen the bleed screw a few turns so that the air can
flow gently into and out of the oil tank.
The air flow through the oil tank should be visible during operation.
Important: Tighten the air-vent screw before each transport to prevent oil leakage.

NOTICE
Before putting the wood splitter into operation place it on
a 72–85 cm high, stable and level workbench and fasten
the support leg with two screws (M8x35) as shown in the
picture on the left.
The log splitter is equipped with a two-hand
control. The left hand controls the hydraulic
control lever, the right hand the pressure switch
(see illustration on the left). If one hand is
missing, the log splitter "freezes".
The trigger-controlled locking device is
designed to prevent accidental lowering of the
hydraulic control lever.
To operate the hydraulic control lever, first
move it forwards and then pull the trigger
downwards with your index finger (Fig. left).
