Engine Controls
See the Engine Operator’s Manual for the location and function
of the controls on the engine.

beam in the horizontal 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 Handle
The control handle has three positions; Forward, Neutral and
Reverse. See the Operation section for instructions.

Log Dislodger

from the wedge. This may occur while splitting large diameter
wood or freshly cut wood.
Log Tray
The log tray is designed to catch the log after it is split.
Tongue
The tongue is used to attach to a towing vehicle for transportation.
End Plate
The end plate holds the log in place while the wedge splits the log.
