OPERaTING THE SPLITTER (EUROPEaN MODELS):
1. Set up the log splitter on a clear, level area and block the
wheels.
2. Place a log on the beam against the wedge. Make sure that
the log is placed securely on the wedge and against the beam.
3. While holding the Flow Control valve lever (rear lever) in the
rearward position with one hand, use the other hand to push
the Direction Control valve lever (front lever) in the forward
(splitting) direction so that the cylinder will drive the log into
the wedge. Extend the cylinder until the log splits or until the
cylinder travels to the end of its stroke. If the log has not com-
pletely split after the cylinder has reached the end of its stroke,
retract the cylinder by pulling the Direction Control valve lever
(front lever) in the rearward (return) direction. The Flow Control
valve lever (rear lever) must always be held in the rearward
position in order for the Direction Control valve to function.
