SPLITTER OPERATION
Application Conditions
This log splitter is a home use model. It is designed for
operating under ambient temperatures between +5°C and
40°C and for installation at altitudes no more than 1000m
above M.S.L. The surrounding humidity should be less than
50% at 40°C. It can be stored or transported under ambient
temperatures between -25°C and 55°C.
Before operation, put the log splitter on a 72-85 cm high,
stable, flat, and level work bench. Fix the support leg using
two bolts M8 × 35(A) on the hard groundwork.
Splitting – Two Hands Operation
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 pushing the Hydraulic Control Lever forward.
The splitting force and speed are governed by the 2-stage control lever. Push the
lever in the 1st stage about half way for faster speed at less splitting force to split
usual logs; Push the lever in the 2nd stage all way for maximum splitting force at
slower speed to split particularly hard and seasoned logs. These stages can be
shifted by simply raising and lowering the lever.
Never force the log splitter for more than 5 seconds by keeping pressure
on it to split excessively hard wood.
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 90
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.
