WARNING: High fluid pressures and temperatures are developed in

 

 

 

hydraulic log splitters. Hydraulic fluid escaping through a pin hole sized

 

 

 

opening can burn or puncture skin, resulting in wounds that could cause

 

 

 

blood poisoning, infection, disability, gangrene, amputation, or death.

 

 

 

Therefore, the following instructions should be heeded at all times when

 

 

 

inspecting or servicing the hydraulic components of the log splitter.

 

 

NEVER check for leaks with your hand. Leaks can be located by holding a

 

 

 

piece of cardboard or wood (at least two feet long) with your hand at one

 

 

 

end and passing the other end over the suspected area (wear eye protection).

 

 

 

Look for discoloration of the cardboard or wood.

 

 

NEVER adjust the pressure of the pump or valve.

 

 

If injured by escaping fluid, no matter how small the wound is, see a doctor

 

 

 

at once. A typical injection injury may be a small wound that does not look

 

 

 

serious. However, severe infection or reaction can result if proper medical

 

 

 

treatment is not administered immediately by a doctor who is familiar with

 

 

 

injection injuries.

 

 

1. Use 10wt AW32, ASLE H-150, or ISO32 oil.

 

 

2. Relieve hydraulic system pressure by moving Split Control Lever back

 

 

 

and forth several times.

 

 

3. Remove hydraulic oil fill cap.

 

 

 

WARNING: NEVER remove the hydraulic oil fill cap when the engine

 

 

 

is running or hot. Hot oil can escape causing severe burns. Allow the log

 

 

 

splitter to cool completely before removing hydraulic oil fill cap.

 

 

4. Remove the suction hose from the hydraulic tank to drain the hydraulic

 

 

 

oil.

 

 

5. Fill to 1” from top of hydraulic tank with cylinder retracted.

 

 

6. Dispose of used oil at an oil recycling center. Used hydraulic oil is

 

 

 

hazardous waste.

3. Spark
