Regular maintenance is the way to ensure the best performance and long life of your wood splitter. Please refer to this manual for maintenance procedures.

WARNING! When performing any maintenance, you must first unplug the wood splitter from the power source and make sure the hydraulic system is depressurized and the fluid has cooled. Read the "Safety Considerations" chapter of this manual before performing any repairs or maintenance.

Regular Maintenance Checklist before each use:

Clean the log ram and guides.

Check the Splitting Wedge for sharpness (page 19).

Check the general condition of the wood splitter, e.g.; nuts, bolts, welds etc.

Before each season:

Check the hydraulic fluid level (page 19). Use an AW32 hydraulic fluid for operation over 40°F and Dextronautomatic transmission fluid for operation below 40°F.

Important! Do not drain the hydraulic fluid. Just add enough to replenish the lost volume.
