Resumen del manual
The top two bolts and nuts are tightened securely. The bottom two bolts and nuts have been assembled loosely. —1. Remove the two bottom bolts, lock washers and hex nuts from the beam and wedge. 2. Place the beam stand in position as shown in figure 4. Secure to beam and wedge with hardware just removed, using the larger holes in beam stand. Tighten securely. INSTALLING THE TOW HITCH 1. Attach the chain to the tow hitch as follows. a. Place flat washer (H) on hex bolt (G). b. Find the center link of the tow hitch chain. Place hex bolt through the center link on the chain. c. Place spacer (I) on hex bolt. d. Insert hex bolt through hole in the top of tow -hitch as shown in figure 5. e. Secure with one lock washer (B) and hex nut (J). Tighten using two 9/16" wrenches. I 2. Place the hitch in position on the beam stand as —shown in figure 6. Place spacer (L) inside the beam stand. Insert hex bolt (K) through hitch, beam stand and spacer. Secure with lock washer (B) and hex nut (J). Assemble second bolt in same manner. Tighten both bolts and nuts securely. ATTACHING THE CONTROL HANDLE 1. The bottom of the control handle is already attached to the valve with a cotter pin. Remove the second cotter pin and clevis pin which are attached to the valve only. 2. Place the handle in position, and secure using the clevis pin and cotter pin. Secure by bending the ends of the cotter pin in opposite directions. See -figure 7. FINAL ASSEMBLY 1. Make certain all nuts, bolts and hose clamps are tightened securely. 2. Before operating the log splitter, make certain to follow the “Initial Preparation” instructions in the Operation Section. OPERATION INITIAL PREPARATION 1. Place the log splitter on a firm, level surface. 2. Service engine with gasoline and oil as inst ucted in the separate engine manual packed wit i your log splitter. 3. Lubricate the area of the beam on which the ram will slide with automotive grease. 4. Fill the reservoir tank (beam) and purge the a r from the system as follows. a. With the log splitter on a level surface, remove the cap from the breather tube. See figure 8. Remove the fluid check plug from the enc plate. b. Fill the reservoir tank with Dexron II automatic transmission fluid until fluid starts to come out of the hole. Replace the check plug. c. Start the engine. Slowly move the control handle forward and backward until the ram moves smoothly in both directions. 6 Breather Tube Fluid Check Plug :IGURE 8. FIGURE 7. d. Stop the engine. Remove the fluid check plug. Add fluid as necessary until fluid starts to come out of the hole. Replace the check plug. e. Repeat steps “c” and “d” until the ram operates smoothly and the fluid level is correct. Then replace the breather cap securely. Total capacity of the system is approximately 3 gallons. Ac WARNING { Do not operate the log splitter without the proper amount of transmission fluid in the reservoir tank. NOTE Be certain to purge the air from the hydraulic system as instructed above after any repair work is performed on the pump, valve or cylinder, if a hose is removed for any reason or when adding fluid to the reservoir. BEFORE STARTING Before each use, check the following: 1. Place the log spitter on a firm, level surface. 2. Remove the fluid check plug. See figure 8. If fluid \ starts to come out of the hole, fluid level is correct. If it does not, fill reservoir as instructed in step 4 of the previous section. 3. Lubricate the area of the beam on which the ram will slide with automotive grease. 4. Fill gasoline tank as instructed in the separate engine manual. 5. Attach spark plug wire to spark plug. TO START ENGINE 1. Place throttle control lever on the engine in FAST position. See figure 9. 2. Place choke lever in CHOKE position (a warm engine may not require choking). 3. Grasp starter handle and pull rope out slowly until engine reaches start of compression cycle (rope will pull slightly harder at this point). Let the rope rewind slowly. ■^NOTE When restarting a warm engine, be careful to keep away from muffler and other heated surfaces on the engine. 4. Pull rope with a rapid, continuous, full arm stroke. Keep a firm grip on the starter handle. Let the rope rewind slowly. Do not let starter handle snap back against starter. 5. Repeat preceding instructions 3 and 4 until engine fires. When engine starts, move choke lever halfway between CHOKE and RUN. 6. Move throttle control lever to IDLE position for a few minutes warm-up. Gradually move choke lever to RUN position as engine warms up. ■^NOTE In order to idle smoothly, a new engine may require 3 to 5 minutes running above slow idle speed. Idle speed has been adjusted to be correct after this break-in period. 7. If weather is cold, cycle the ram 6 to 8 times to circulate the hydraulic fluid, which will warm and thin the fluid. TO STOP ENGINE 1. Move throttle control lever to OFF position. 2. Disconnect spark plug wire from spar...
