To prevent serious injury:
Keep hands and feet clear of the ram of the Log Splitter during this entire procedure, including when the ram is withdrawing to the original position.
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY:
Keep spectators clear of the splitting area. When wood is being split, projectiles can fly in any direction.

8.Continue loading logs on the Log Lift, and splitting them until the job is done.
9.To prevent accidents, turn the engine off and disconnect its spark plug wire after use. Wait for the engine to cool, clean, then store the tool in a dry area out of children’s reach.
Transporting the Log Splitter:
1.Check the tire pressure. PSI should be at 60 for the Wheels before travel- ing.
2.Connect the Log Splitter to a 2” hitch ball (not included) on the vehicle. Use the chains to secure the Log Splitter to the towing vehicle. The hitch coupler must be properly se- cured to the hitch ball of the towing vehicle. After attachment, pull up on the hitch coupler to make sure that the hitch ball fits snugly on the hitch coupler. There can be no play between the hitch ball and the hitch coupler. Follow all safety warnings in the manufacturer vehicle’s owners manual.
To prevent serious injury:
If the coupler is not secured properly, the Log Splitter could come loose while the vehicle is in motion causing property damage, serious personal injury or death.
