Using Control Handle
The control handle has three positions (Figure 22).
FORWARD — To split wood. Move the control handle to the FORWARD position to move wedge toward the log to split.
Note: The control handle will return to the NEUTRAL position as soon as the handle is released (FORWARD position only).
NEUTRAL — To stop wedge. Release the control handle or move the lever to the NEUTRAL position to stop the wedge
movement.
REVERSE — To return the wedge. Move the control handle to the REVERSE position to return the wedge toward the cylinder. The
control handle returns to the NEUTRAL position automatically when fully retracted.
Do not hold the handle in the REVERSE position when fully retracted.
Note: To stop the wedge before the ram is fully retracted when in the REVERSE position, the handle must MANUALLY be put in the
NEUTRAL position.
