5 MAINTENANCE | 6 SPECIFICATIONS |
By following a good maintenance program, your equipment will last for many years.
1.Consult the operating and maintenance instructions of the engine manufacturer for engine care and maintenance.
2.Always check the oil level of the hydraulic reservoir before operation. Operating the Log Splitter without an adequate oil supply will cause severe damage to the pump.
3.Change the oil filter after the first 25 hours of operation. Thereafter, change the oil filter every 100 hours or seasonally, whichever comes first.
4.If the wedge becomes dull or nicked, a grinder or sharpening tool can be used to sharpen it while still attached to the cylinder. If it is necessary to remove the wedge, the stripper plate (71)* must be taken off by removing the 3/8" bolts (68)*. Then remove the cylinder support (66)* by taking out the 3/8" bolts (63)*. Then remove the 1/2" x 3 1/2" bolt (51)* that connects the wedge to the cylinder. The return hose (53)* may need to be disconnected from the valve. Loosen hose clamp (18)* and pull the hose off the fitting. Lift up the cylinder carefully and slide the wedge out of the channel.
5.Clean the breather cap after 25 hours of operation. Clean it more often when operated in dusty conditions. To clean, remove the breather from the tank and flush with kerosene or liquid detergent to remove the dirt.
6.See also Repair and Maintenance Safety in the Safety Information section of this manual.
7.All replacement parts must meet manufacturer's specifications.
