Never try to force the splitting of the log by maintaining the
pressure for several seconds. This can lead to damage to the
machine.
Position the log on the table again and repeat the splitting phase,
or put the log on one side.
How to release a jammed log?
There is a risk of knotted logs getting stuck during the splitting
process.
1. Switch machine off and disconnect the power.
2. Do not remove jammed logs with your hands.
3. Carefully move the stuck log with a crowbar backwards and
forwards to loosen it. Don´t damage the splitting pillar.

man job.

the oil seal.

If the oil level is between the two marking on the oil dipstick,
there is sufficient oil in the reservoir.

If the oil level is below the lower marking, more oil should be
added with the aid of a clean funnel.
