11. Operation
Tool required:
• 5mm Allen key (G)
11.1 Splitting logs
m WARNING!
Danger of injury!
Dry and seasoned wood can explode during the split-
ting process and injure the operator.
During the splitting process, bruising or severing of
body parts may occur due to retracting of the riving
knife.
Pieces of wood that are produced during a splitting pro-
cess can fall down.
- Wear appropriate personal protective equipment.
Make sure that the wood to be split does not contain
nails or foreign objects. The end of the log must be cut
straight. Branches must be sawn off flush.
Pieces of wood cut at an angle can slip away during
the splitting process. Only split timbers that have been
sawn off straight.

(stroke setting bar) (26) upwards until the stroke
setting bar (15) is stopped on the stop.
7. Tighten the locking screw (stroke setting bar) (27)
with the 5mm Allen key (G) provided.

the splitting wedge (2) does not move upwards un-
controllably when the motor (18) is switched on.

11.2.2 Folding the swivel table (11) in/out (Fig. 1, 13)
m Attention!
Always keep the base plate clean so that the swivel ta-
ble can engage securely!
1. Swivel in the swivel table (11) by hand or foot until
the locking hook (7) engages.
2. Place the log straight on the swivel table (11).
3. Hold the log with the two retaining claws (14) on
the operating arms (4). Make sure that the log is
placed centrally to the splitting wedge (2).
4. Press both operating levers (12) down simultane-
ously.
5. Move the operating arms (4) approx. 2 cm away
from the log as soon as the splitting wedge (2)
penetrates. This prevents damage to the retaining
claws (14).
6. Drive the splitting wedge (2) down until the log is
split.

placed centrally to the splitting wedge (2).
4. Press both operating levers (12) down simultane-
ously.
5. Move the operating arms (4) approx. 2 cm away
from the log as soon as the splitting wedge (2)
penetrates. This prevents damage to the retaining

split.
7. If the log has not been completely split during the
first splitting stroke, proceed as described in sec-
tion 11.4.
