Splitting Logs (Refer to Fig. 2)
Tips
Wet or non seasoned wood is more difficult to split than dry wood because the fibres stick together.
Reversing the log and splitting it from the other end may help if you cannot pull the wood apart.
large or multiple knots in a log make splitting more difficult. usually if the log is rotated so the knots are vertical to the blade, the wood
will split more easily and less stress is placed on the splitter. this will reduce wear and tear and the possibility of damaging
components of the splitter.
3.3.1. Remove the safety cover from the cutter. Select your log and lift the slide stop lever to allow it to be moved along the bar. lay the
log on the splitter and push the slide stop onto the end of the log.
3.3.2. Pump the foot pedal down, it may take three or four pumps, until the log is split.
3.3.3. to remove a log from the splitter, that has not been split all the way through, lift the lever on the slide stop and pull it back, place your
foot on the bottom bar and pull the end of the log sideways towards you.
3.3.4. When finished fit the safety cover and safety clip, wind in the adjustment screw and store in a safe, childproof location.
3.3.5. Keep moving parts lubricated with anti-rust machine oil.
