7. Always wear safety gear, eye protection, gloves and work boots when operating the log splitter
8. Start the engine and make sure the log splitter is on level ground before operating.
NOTE: The hydraulic oil needs to be above 10°F (-12C°) before starting the engine. Cold
hydraulic oil can damage the hydraulic pump. If outdoor air temperature is below 32°F (0C°)
allow the log splitter to warm up by extending and returning the wedge several times before
splitting wood.

else out of the work zone while operating control lever.

and allow the splitter to strip the log from the wedge.
If the log still remains stuck, embedded or will not split, turn the machine off and use a sledge hammer
and crow bar to remove the log.
ALWAYS keep hands clear of the log and wedge while it is retracting.
