Disconnect the dislodger from the beam weld bracket by 14.
removing the six hex screws. See Fig. 3-4.
Disconnect the log tray from the beam on the side of the 15.
control valve by removing the two hex washer screws
that secure it to the beam weld brackets and the two hex
washer screws in the beam. See Fig. 3-5.
Align the holes in the tongue with the holes in the tank 10.
bracket and secure with the hardware just removed. See
Fig. 3-2.
NOTE: The high pressure hose, which runs from the gear
pump to the bottom of the control valve, must be above
the tongue assembly.
The log splitter is shipped with the beam in a vertical
11.
position. Remove any bolts or straps securing the end plate
to the bottom of the crate.
Pull out the vertical beam lock, rotate it back, and pivot the
12.
beam to the horizontal position until it locks being sure to
avoid any possible pinch points. See Fig. 3-3.
WARNING! Take extra care when raising and
lowering the beam as it is fairly heavy. Having a
second person assist with raising or lowering the
beam is recommended. Be sure to keep hands away
from any possible pinch points.
Remove the wood between the wedge and the end plate 13.
by cutting the cable tie that secures it. Cut the strap near
the hose on the front of the cylinder that secures it to the
beam weld bracket. Be careful not to damage the hose.
