See the Engine Operator’s Manual for the location and function of the controls on the engine.
Beam LocksThe beam locks are used to secure the beam in either the horizontal position or the vertical position. The vertical beam lock is located next to the engine. The horizontal beam lock is located on the beam support latch bracket.
Control HandleUse the control handle to move the log splitter wedge forward and backward along the beam. It has three positions; Forward, Neutral and Reverse. See the Operation section for instructions.
DipstickUse the dipstick to check the hydraulic fluid level.
The log dislodger is designed to remove any partially split wood from the wedge while it is retracting. This may occur while splitting large diameter wood or freshly cut wood.
Log TrayThe log tray is designed to catch the log after it is split.
Hitch CouplingUse the hitch coupling to attach the log splitter to a towing vehicle for transportation.
Jack StandThe jack stand supports the log splitter while in the operating position.
