Damaged or coiled cables increase the risk of an
electric shock.
• If you work with an electric tool outdoors, only use
extension cables that are also permitted for outdoor
use. Using an extension cable permitted for outdoor
use reduces the risk of an electric shock.
Personal safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medica-
tion. A moment of carelessness when using electri-
cal tools can result in serious injuries.
• Wear personal protective equipment and always
safety goggles.
Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Make sure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting
to the power supply, picking up or carrying the
electric tool. Carrying power tools with your finger
on the switch or energising power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or screwdriver before
turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of
the power tool may result in personal injury.
• Do not overreach.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unex-
pected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
• Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use
of tools allow you to become complacent and ig-
nore tool safety principles. A careless action can
cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
Power tool use and care
• Do not force the power tool.
Use the correct power tool for your application. The
correct power tool will do the job better and safer at
the rate for which it was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power socket
before making any adjustments to the device,
changing tool inserts or transporting the power
tool.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool
or these instructions to operate the power tool. Pow-
er tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
• Maintain power tools and accessories.
Check whether moving parts function properly and
do not get stuck and whether parts are broken or are
damaged and thus adversely affect the electric tool
function. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Proper-
ly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed. Use of the power tool for op-
erations different from those intended could result in
a hazardous situation.
• Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles
and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling
and control of the tool in unexpected situations.
Service
• Only have your electric tool repaired by quali-
fied specialists and only with original spare
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
6. Additional safety instructions
• The log splitter may only be operated by a single
person.
• Never split trunks that contain nails, wire, or other
objects.
• Wood that has already been split and wood chip-
pings create a hazardous work area. There is a
danger of tripping, slipping or falling. Always keep
the work area orderly.
