4 Operating Your Log Splitter WARNING Never remove partially split wood from the wedge with your hands. Fingers may be- come trapped between split wood. Figure 4-3 10 Transporting the Log Splitter IMPORTANT: Always turn fuel valve to OFF position before transporting the log splitter. 1. Lower the beam to its horizontal position. Make certain the beam is locked securely with the horizontal beam lock. 2. Remove spring clip and clevis pin from jack stand. 3. Support the tongue and pivot the jack stand up against the tongue. See Figure 4-4. 4. Secure with the spring clip and clevis pin previously removed. See Figure 4-4. 5. Attach coupler hitch to a class I or higher 2” ball on a towing vehicle; latch securely. a. If coupler hitch does not fit on ball: Turn adjustment nut one turn counter-clockwise. b. If coupler hitch is too loose on ball: Turn adjustment nut one turn clockwise. 6. Connect the safety chains to the towing vehicle. 7. Plug in the tail lights, if so equipped, to the tail light connector on the tow vehicle. WARNING: Do not tow faster than 45mph and check local, state, and federal requirements before towing on any public road. NOTE: Use caution when backing up. It is recommended to use a spotter outside the vehicle. 6. Use a flexible “spider” type coupling between engine and pump drive shafts. 7. Keep hoses clear and unblocked. 8. Bleed air out of hoses before operating. 9. Flush and clean hydraulic system before restarting after servicing. 10.Use “pipe dope” on all hydraulic fittings. 11. Allow time for warm-up before splitting wood. 12.Prime the pump before initial start-up by turning over the engine with spark plug disconnected (if not already done at factory). 13.Split wood along the grain (lengthwise) only. Never: 1. Use when fluid is below 20° F or above 150° F. 2. Use a solid engine /pump coupling. 3. Operate through relief valve for long. 4. Attempt to adjust unloading or relief valve settings without pressure gauges. 5. Operate with air in hydraulic system. 6. Use teflon tape on hydraulic fittings. 7. Attempt to cut wood across the grain. 8. Attempt to remove partially split wood from the wedge with your hands. Fully retract wedge to dislodge wood with log dislodger. Raising and Lowering Beam 1. Use control handle to run wedge up and down beam 6 to 8 times to circulate the hydraulic fluid, which will warm and thin the fluid. 2. Place log splitter on a firm, level surface. To raise the beam for vertical operation: 3. Pull out the horizontal beam lock on the tongue. 4. Pivot beam lock down to release the beam. 5. Move the beam to the vertical position. Secure it with the beam lock on the reservoir tank assembly. WARNING: Always use the log splitter in the vertical position when splitting heavy logs. To lower the beam: 1. Pull out the vertical beam lock on the reservoir tank. 2. Pivot beam lock down to release the beam. 3. Carefully pull back on beam and lower it to the horizontal position.The horizontal beam lock will lock automatically. See Figure 4-1. 4 Operating Your Log Splitter WARNING Always use the log splitter in the vertical position when splitting heavy logs.
