ENGLISH 92207
ASSEMBLY
The engine is equipped with a low-oil-shutoff and
the will stop when the oil level in the crankcase
falls below the threshold level.
CAUTION
Add Engine Oil
1. Make sure the log splitter is on a flat, level surface.
2. Remove oil fill cap/dipstick to add oil.
3. Add 0.63 qt (0.6 L) of oil (SAE 10W-30) - oil should cover
all but 2 threads of filler hole. Replace oil fill cap/dipstick.
4. Check engine oil level daily and add as needed.
DO NOT attempt to crank or start the engine before
it has been properly filled with the recommended
type and amount of oil. Damage to the log splitter
as a result of failure to follow these instructions will
void your warranty.
CAUTION
Check oil often during the break-in period. Refer to
the Maintenance section for recommended service
intervals.
NOTE
Use regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum
octane rating of 85.
Do not mix oil and gasoline.
Fill tank to approximately ¼ inch below the top of
the tank to allow for fuel expansion.
DO NOT fill fuel tank indoors.
DO NOT fill fuel tank when the engine is running or hot.
DO NOT overfill the fuel tank.
DO NOT light cigarettes or smoke when filling the
fuel tank.
CAUTION
Add Engine Fuel
1. Use clean, fresh, regular unleaded fuel with a
minimum octane rating of 85 and an ethanol content
of less than 10% by volume.
2. DO NOT mix oil with fuel.
3. Clean the area around the fuel cap.
4. Remove the fuel cap.
5. Slowly add fuel to the tank. DO NOT overfill. Allow
approximately ¼ inch of space for fuel expansion.
6. Screw on the fuel cap and wipe away any spilled fuel.
Add Engine Oil Cont’d.
Add Hydraulic Oil
1. Make sure the log splitter is on a flat, level surface.
2. Remove the oil plug from the oil tank. (A)
3. Add 5 gal. (18.9 L) of hydraulic oil - 10W AW32, ASLE
H-150, or ISO 32 are all acceptable types of fluid.
4. Check the hydraulic oil level using the oil sight glass.
Oil level should be centered on the glass sight. (B)
5. Replace and tighten the oil plug and orient the vent
hole away from the operator zone.
6. Start Engine. Extend and retract the wedge to purge
air from the hydraulic system. When the wedge
motion is smooth, the system is properly purged.
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 will 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. Seek medical attention immediately if
injured by escaping fluid.
