Venting (Fig. 14)
Before working with the log splitter, vent the hydraulic
system.
• Release the venting cap 6 by a few revolutions so
the air can escape from the oil tank.
• Leave the cap open during the operation.
• Before you move the log splitter, close the cap
again in order not to lose any oil.
If the hydraulic system is not vented, the enclosed air
will damage the gaskets and with it the complete log
splitter.

m IMPORTANT!
You must fully assemble the appliance before using it
10. Initial operation
Make sure the machine is completely and expertly
assembled. Check before every use:
• The connection cables for any defective spots
(cracks, cuts etc.).
• The machine for any possible damage.
•
• The hydraulic system for leakage.
• The oil level.
Checking the oil level (Fig. 13)
The hydraulic unit is a closed system with oil tank, oil
pump and control valve. Check the oil level regularly
before every use. Too low an oil level can damage
the oil pump. The correct oil level is approx. 10 to 20
mm below the oil tank surface.
Note: The level of oil must be checked when the riv-
ing knife is pulled back. If the oil level is at the low-
er notch, then the oil level is at a minimum. Should
this be the case, oil must be immediately added. The
upper notch indicates the maximum oil level. The
machine must be on level ground. Screw in the oil
dipstick fully, to measure the oil level.
