LOG SPLITTER OPERATION
EN
This log splitter is equipped with “ZHB” control system that requires to be operated by both hands of the
user - Left hand controls the hydraulic control lever while right hand controls the pushbutton switch.The log
splitter will freeze upon absence of either hand. Only after both hands release the controls, the log pusher
starts to return backward to the starting position.
Trigger type lock-out device is adopted to avoid accidental Hydraulic Control Lever pushdown. To operate
the Hydraulic Control Lever, draw the Trigger backward with the index finger before push the Hydraulic
Control Lever forward.
Never force the log splitter for more than 5 seconds by keeping pressure on it to split
excessively hard wood.
Always set logs firmly on the log retaining plates and
work table. Make sure logs will not twist, rock or slip
while being split. Do not force the blade by splitting the
log on the upper part.This will break the blade or dam-
age the machine.
Break log in the direction of its growing grain. Do not
place log across the log splitter for splitting. It may be
dangerous and may seriously damage the machine.
Do not attempt to split 2 pieces of logs at the same time.
One of them may fly up and hit you.
FREEING A JAMMED
LOG
• Release both controls.
• After the log pusher moves back and complete-
ly stops at its starting position, insert a
wedge wood under the jammed log.
• Start the log splitter to push the wedge wood to
go completely under the jammed one.
• Repeat above procedure with sharper slope
wedge woods until the log is completely
freed.
Do not try to knock the jammed log off. Knocking about
will damage the machine or may launch the log and
cause accident.
After this time interval, the oil under pressure will be overheated and the machine could be damaged. For
such extremely hard log, rotate it by 90o to see whether it can be split in a different direction. In any case,
if you are not able to split the log, this means that its hardness exceeds the capacity of the machine and
thus that log should be discarded to protect the log splitter.
