Step 8: Add Gasoline to the Engine
1. Use only clean, fresh, regular unleaded fuel with a
minimum 87 octane rating.
2. DO NOT mix oil with fuel.
3. Remove the fuel cap and slowly add fuel to the tank.
DO NOT overfill and allow approximately 1/2 inch of
space from the top to the tank for fuel expansion.
4. Screw on the fuel cap and wipe away any
spilled fuel.
DANGER
Log splitter engine exhaust contains carbon
monoxide, a colorless, odorless, poison gas.
Breathing carbon monoxide will cause nausea,
dizziness, fainting or death. If you start to feel dizzy
or weak, get to fresh air immediately.
Operate log splitter outdoors only in a
well-ventilated area.
DO NOT operate the log splitter inside any building,
enclosure or compartment.
DO NOT allow exhaust fumes to enter a confined
area through windows, doors, vents or
other openings.
WARNING
Fuel and fuel vapors are highly flammable and
extremely explosive. Fire or explosion can cause
severe burns or death.
Unintentional startup can result in entanglement,
traumatic amputation or laceration.
Only use regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum
87 octane rating. DO NOT mix oil and
gasoline together.
Fill tank approximately 1/2" below the top of the tank
to allow for fuel expansion. DO NOT fill fuel tank
indoors or when the engine is running or hot.
DO NOT light cigarettes or smoke when filling
the fuel tank.
Step 9: Add Hydraulic Oil
1. The log splitter needs to be on a flat, level surface
before adding the hydraulic oil.
2. Remove the oil cap from the hydraulic oil tank.
Check the hydraulic oil level. If the unit has been
preassembled by the retail store, hydraulic oil may
have already been added.
3. If required, add up to 3.2 gallons of hydraulic oil.
10W AW32 and ISO 32 are acceptable types
of fluid.
4. Check the hydraulic oil level.
5. Start engine and use the control lever to extend and
retract wedge several times to remove air from
the lines.
6. With the wedge retracted, check hydraulic oil level
again and fill if necessary.

WARNING
Hydraulic fluid may be under high pressure or be hot
and can cause personal injury.
Do not remove the hydraulic oil fill cap when the
engine is running or hot. Hot oil can escape causing
severe burns. Always allow the log splitter to cool
completely before removing the hydraulic oil cap.
High fluid pressure and temperatures are created in
the hydraulic log splitters. Hydraulic fluid can escape
through a pin-size hole opening and can puncture
skin and cause severe blood poisoning. Inspect
hydraulic system regularly for possible leaks.
NEVER check for leaks WITH YOUR HAND while
the system is pressurized. Check for hydraulic fluid
leaks by passing a piece of paper or cardboard
underneath or over the area of the leak. Seek
medical attention IMMEDIATELY if injured by
escaping fluid.
Make sure all fittings are tight and secure before
applying pressure.
Relieve system pressure before servicing.
Make sure the hydraulic hoses do not touch any hot
surfaces or cutting areas.
Hoses need to be positioned were they are clear
from the engine and cutting wedge. To avoid serious
bodily injury always inspect the hoses before
operating the log splitter.
