away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelle-
ry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
4) Use and treatment of electric tools
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct po-
wer tool for your application. The correct power
tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such pre-
ventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of child-
ren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the po-
wer tool's operation. If damaged, have the pow-
er tool repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions and
the work to be performed. Use of the power
tool for operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.

Safety Instructions

Using the wood splitter may lead to some hazards.
Therefore, the machine may only be handled by
instructed and experienced persons.
Wear suitable protective clothing such as sturdy
shoes with non-slip sole, robust long trousers,
gloves, safety glasses and hearing protection! Do
not wear loose clothing or jewels. Hear, clothing and
gloves must be out of reach of moving parts as they
could get caught by the rotating parts. Do not use
the appliance when barefooted or in open sandals.
In the event of a blockage, switch off the machine
immediately. Disconnect the power plug and remo-
ve the jammed piece of wood.

Mains Connection

WARNING! Electric shock! There is a risk of
an injury caused by electric shock!
Operation is only allowed with a safety
switch against stray current (RCD max. stray
current of 30mA).
Check the voltage. Technical data given on the type
label must correspond with electric network voltage.
Insert the plug of the electrical cable in a socket of
suitable shape, voltage and frequency complying
with current regulations.
Only for 400 volt machines: It is essential to respect
the engine rotation direction (see the arrow on the
engine) as operation in wrong direction would da-
mage the oil pump. Warranty claims cannot apply in
such a case. Change the rotation direction by turning
the connector polarity if necessary.
Pursuant to the provisions of „CE" professional
associations, etc., all splitters are fitted with an
undervoltage release in the switch. This will prevent
accidental repeated starting in case of current inter-
ruption due to power failure, accidental unplugging,
defective fuse, etc. The machine must necessarily be
turned on again by repeated pressing of the green
switch.
Wilful holding or blocking of the switch, unless being
a neutral, will automatically lead to switch failure.
The warranty will not apply in such a case that must
naturally be checked.

Work preparation

Before putting the machine into operation, working
of the safety guards (two-lever operation system, in
particular) must be checked.
• Put both control levers down and the splitter knife
down, app. 5 cm above the desk.
