All guards and safety mechanisms must be replaced
immediately after completing the repairs or the main-
tenance work.
Our recommendations:
Thoroughly clean the machine after each use!
•
Splitting knife
•
The splitting knife is an element subject to wear and
tear and needs to be sharpened or replaced by a
new one, when necessary.
Two-hand safety mechanism
•
The holding/control combination must be kept
working smoothly. Occasionally lubricate with a few
drops of oil.
Moving parts
•
- Keep splitting knife guides clean. (from dirt, shav-
ings, bark etc.)
- Lubricate guides with spray oil or grease.
Checking the hydraulic oil level.
•
Inspect hydraulic connectors for leakage and wear.
Tighten screw fittings if necessary.
Checking the oil level, fig. 4
Check the oil level before every use. A low oil level
might damage the oil pump. Check the oil level with
the oil dipstick.
For the check the splitting beam must be retracted
and the machine must stand levelly.
When do I change the oil?
First oil change after 50 operating hours, then every
250 operating hours.
Changing Oil, fig. 5
• Put the splitting column all the way in.
• Place a container with a capacity of at least 9 l.
below the splitter.
• Release the venting hatch A.
• Open the release screw B, so that the oil can run
out.
• Close the release screw again and tighten it well.
• Using a funnel, fill 9 l. of new hydraulic oil into the
container.
• Screw the venting hatch on again.
Dispose of the used oil in a correct manner at a
public collection facility. It is prohibited to drop
old oil on the ground or to mix it with waste.
We recommend the following hydraulic oils:
Aral Vitam gf 22
BP Energol HLP-HM 22
Mobil DTE 11
Shell Tellus 22
or equivalent types.
Splitting beam
Slightly lubricate the beam of the splitter before op-
eration. Repeat this process every 5 operating hours.
Apply a little grease or spray oil. The beam must
not run dry.
Hydraulics
The hydraulic system is a closed type with oil tank,
oil pump, and control valve.
This system is completely assembled at the factory
and must not be modified or manipulated.

Check oil level regularly.
A low oil level will damage the oil pump.
Inspect the hydraulic connectors regularly for leak-
age - tighten if necessary.
Before you commence maintenance or inspection
work, clean the working area and keep suitable tools
in good condition ready.
The intervals mentioned here apply for normal oper-
ating conditions; if the machine is heavily used, the
intervals will be shorter accordingly.
Clean the machine panels, covers, and control levers
with a soft cloth, dry or moistened with a little neutral
cleaning agent. Do not use solvents such as alcohol
or petrol, as this might damage the surfaces.
Keep oil and grease out of reach of unauthorized per-
sonnel. Read the instructions on the product contain-
ers carefully and observe them precisely. Avoid direct
contact with skin and wash off well after use.
