2. સલામતી સૂચનાઓ
Operating a log splitter can be hazardous if proper safety precautions are not followed. Always prioritize your safety and the safety of others.
2.1 સામાન્ય સલામતી
- ઓપરેશન પહેલાં સમગ્ર સૂચના માર્ગદર્શિકા વાંચો અને સમજો.
- Wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), including safety glasses, gloves, and sturdy footwear.
- Keep the work area clear of bystanders, children, and pets.
- લોગ સ્પ્લિટરને મજબૂત, સમતલ સપાટી પર ચલાવો.
- Do not operate the machine under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
2.2 ઇલેક્ટ્રિકલ સલામતી
- Ensure the power supply matches the specifications of the log splitter (120V, 15 Amps).
- Use an extension cord no longer than 50 ft and with a cross-section no less than 3.3 mm² (12-gauge or thicker) to prevent voltage ડ્રોપ અને ઓવરહિટીંગ.
- Plug the log splitter into a dedicated circuit to handle the initial power surge and avoid tripping breakers.
- Never operate the log splitter in wet conditions or expose it to rain.
2.3 ઓપરેશનલ સલામતી
- The log splitter features a two-hand operation system for user safety. Both the motor button and the hydraulic lever must be engaged simultaneously to operate the ram.
- Keep hands away from the splitting wedge and ram during operation.
- Only split logs within the recommended capacity: up to 20 inches in length and 9.8 inches in diameter.
- Avoid splitting knotty or excessively hard wood, as this can strain the machine and cause kickback.
- Ensure logs are free of nails, wire, or other foreign objects.
3. સેટઅપ

૪.૧ પ્રી-ઓપરેશન તપાસ
- ચકાસો કે બધા જોડાણો ચુસ્ત અને સુરક્ષિત છે.
- Check the hydraulic oil level. Ensure it is within the recommended range.
- Inspect the power cord and extension cord for any damage.
4. ઓપરેટિંગ સૂચનાઓ
Follow these steps for safe and effective log splitting.
4.1 Preparing Logs
- For optimal performance, use dry timber. Wet or green wood is significantly harder to split.
- Ensure logs are cut to appropriate lengths (max 20 inches) and diameters (max 9.8 inches).
- Place the log firmly on the splitting bed against the wedge.

4.2 Splitting Process
- With the log securely in place, simultaneously press the motor button and pull the hydraulic lever.
- The hydraulic ram will extend, pushing the log against the steel wedge and splitting it.
- Once the log is split, release both controls. The ram will automatically retract to its starting position.
- Repeat the process for remaining logs.
Figure 3: The two-hand control system ensures operator safety by requiring simultaneous engagement of both controls to activate the splitting ram.
4.3 Optimizing Splitting
- For shorter logs, the ram can be adjusted to reduce travel distance, improving efficiency.
- If a log does not split completely on the first pass, reposition it or try splitting from a different angle.
5. જાળવણી
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your log splitter.
5.1 સફાઈ
- After each use, clear wood chips, sawdust, and debris from the splitting bed and around the motor.
- Using a tarp or mat under the splitter can significantly simplify cleanup.
5.2 હાઇડ્રોલિક સિસ્ટમ
- Periodically check the hydraulic oil level and top up if necessary. Refer to the specifications for the correct oil type and capacity (3.5 L).
- Inspect hydraulic hoses and connections for leaks or damage.
5.3 સામાન્ય નિરીક્ષણ
- Regularly inspect all moving parts for wear and tear.
- Ensure all fasteners remain tight.
6. મુશ્કેલીનિવારણ
Here are some common issues and their potential solutions.
| સમસ્યા | સંભવિત કારણ | ઉકેલ |
|---|---|---|
| મોટર ચાલુ થતી નથી | No power, tripped circuit breaker, faulty switch | Check power connection, reset circuit breaker, ensure both controls are engaged. |
| Log not splitting | Log too large/wet, knotty wood, dull wedge | Reduce log size, use dry wood, reposition log, inspect wedge for damage. |
| Ram not extending/retracting | Low hydraulic fluid, air in system, faulty hydraulic valve | Check hydraulic fluid level, bleed air from system (refer to detailed manual), contact support. |
| ઓવરહિટીંગ | Improper extension cord, continuous heavy use | Use correct gauge extension cord, allow machine to cool down between heavy tasks. |
