Log Splitter Location
This log splitter must have at least five feet
of clearance from combustible material.
Leave at least three feet of clearance on all
sides of the log splitter to allow for adequate
cooling, maintenance and servicing. DO
NOT place the log splitter near vents or
intakes where engine exhaust fumes could
be drawn into occupied or confined spaces.
Carefully consider wind and air currents
when positioning log splitter.
Starting the Engine
1. Make certain the log splitter is on a flat,
level surface.
2. Flip engine switch to “ON” position.
3. Move the fuel lever (Item C) to the “ON”
position (to the right).
4. Move the choke lever (Item B) to the
“Choke” position (to the left).
5. Pull the starter cord slowly until
resistance is felt and then pull rapidly
6. As engine warms up, move the choke
lever to “Run” (to the right).
7. Move the throttle lever (Item A) to the
“Fast” position.
NOTE
If the engine starts but does not run make
certain that the log splitter is on a flat, level
surface. The engine is equipped with a low oil
sensor that will prevent the engine from running
when the oil level falls below a critical threshold.
Stopping the Engine
1. Turn the ignition switch to the “Off”
position.
2. Turn the fuel valve to the “Off” position.
Log Splitter Operation
1. Load a log onto the beam against the
end plate (MAX LOG LENGTH - 24”).
2. Make sure all limbs are clear of crush
zones.
3. Push the control valve handle forward
(towards the end plate) to split the log.
4. Push the control valve handle backward
to return the wedge to its original
position.
5. Clear the split wood from the work zone.
