Special Messages

Your manual contains special messages to bring attention to potential safety concerns, machine damage, as well as helpful operating and servicing information. Please read all the information carefully to avoid injury and machine damage.

NOTE: General information is given throughout the manual that may help the operator perform the operation or service of the machine.

Important Safety Precautions

Please read this section carefully. Operate the electric log splitter according to the safety instructions and recommendations outlined here, and stated throughout the text. Anyone who uses this log splitter must read the instructions carefully and be familiar with the controls.

This symbol signifies important safety instructions, which, if not followed could endanger your personal safety. Read and follow all instructions in this manual before attempting to operate this equipment.

Do not transport the log splitter with the motor running.

Dress appropriately when operating the log splitter. Always wear sturdy footwear. Do not wear sandals, sneakers, or open toed shoes, and never operate the log splitter with bare feet. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that may get caught in moving parts. Always wear safety goggles for eye protection. Everyday glasses have only impact resistant lenses and are not effective safety glasses.

Warning

Warning INDICATES A HAZARD WHICH, IF NOT AVOIDED, COULD RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

Caution

CAUTION INDICATES YOU CAN BE HURT OR YOUR EQUIP- MENT DAMAGED IF THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS THAT FOL- LOW THIS SIGNAL WORD ARE NOT OBEYED.

Important

INDICATES HELPFUL INFORMATION FOR PROPER ASSEMBLY, OPERATION, OR MAINTENANCE OF YOUR equipment.

Always pay full attention to the movement of the log pusher. Do not attempt to load the log onto the log splitter until the log pusher has come to a complete stop. Always keep hands, feet, hair and loose clothing away from any moving parts on the log splitter.

Do not allow children to operate this log splitter. Adults should not operate the log splitter without proper instruction.

Do not operate any power equipment under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or any medication that could affect your ability to use the equipment properly.

Always keep your work area clean and well lit.

Keep all screws, nuts and bolts tight.

Always inspect the logs to be split for nails or other foreign objects. The ends of the logs must be cut square. Branches must be cut off flush with the trunk.

Do not over-reach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Never stand on the log splitter. Do not use the log splitter as a step.

Do not operate the log splitter from ground level. Place log splitter at a comfortable height (24-32 inches), on a stable, flat, and level work surface where there is plenty of room for handling material. Bolt the log splitter to the work surface if it tends to slip, walk, or slide.
