Attachment / Before Starting The Equipment; Initial Operation - Scheppach HL750ST Original Bedienungsanleitung

9. Attachment / Before starting the
equipment
At least two people are required to install the de-
vice.
9.1 9.1 Installing the base frame (fig. 2 - 3)
For technical reasons of packaging, the stand must
be fitted by the customer.
Use the attached hexagon bolts and start screws.
1. Remove the hub cap and disassemble the wheels.
2. Connect all single parts of the stand with the ma-
chine.
3. Place the device horizontally on the floor, and put
the Styropor pad of the packaging underneath the
splitting wedge side.
4. Assemble the wheels on the wheel axis of the
stand.
9.2 Installing the protective guard (Fig. 4 - 8)
• Mount the lower cover (B) to the right side of the
machine using four Allen screws (e). (fig. 4)
• Mount the lower cover (C) to the left side of the ma-
chine using three Allen screws (e) (fig. 4)
• Fit the side cover (D) into the lower cover (B) and
secure it with five Allen screws (e) and five hexagon
nuts (g). (fig. 5)
• Fit the side cover (F) into the lower cover (C) and
secure it with three Allen screws (e) and three hex-
agon nuts (g). (fig. 5)
• Connect the holders of the side flaps (E) with the
hinges of the side cover (D) and (F). (fig. 5)
• Fit the rear side cover (D) into the lower cover (B)
and into the side cover (D) and secure it with two
Allen screws (e) and two hexagon nuts (g). (fig. 6)
• Secure the rear side cover (G) with the hexagon
screw (f). To do this, you have to move the control
handle (1) away to facilitate access for the hexagon
screw (f). (fig. 7)
• Connect the holders of the upper flap (H) to the
hinge of the upper cover (I)
• Clip the cover (I) into the side covers. (fig. 7)
• Attach the flaps (J) to the hinge of the side covers
(E).
• Now clip the flaps (J) together with the flap (H). (fig.
8)
9.3 Fitting the tray table (fig. 9)
• Push the tray table (3) into the holder provided.
m IMPORTANT!
You must fully assemble the appliance before using it
for the first time!

10. Initial operation

If you still want to work without a base frame, then
place the splitter on a stable, level and flat workbench
so that the control button sits at a height of 72 - 85
cm. If the machine should slip during splitting work,
fasten it to the table with two screws (M8 x X = thick-
ness of the table). To do so, use the two holes on the
foot.
Make sure the machine is completely and expertly
assembled. Check before every use:
• the connection cables for any defective spots
(cracks, cuts etc.).
• the machine for any possible damage.
• the firm seat of all bolts.
• the hydraulic system for leakage.
• the oil level and
• the safety devices
10.1 Checking the oil level (Fig. 10)
The hydraulic unit is a closed system with oil tank, oil
pump and control valve. Check the oil level regularly
before every use. Too low an oil level can damage
the oil pump. The correct oil level is approx. 10 to 20
mm below the oil tank surface.
If the oil level is at the lower notch, then the oil level is
at a minimum. Should this be the case, oil must be im-
mediately added. The upper notch indicates the max-
imum oil level. The machine must be on level ground.
Screw in the oil dipstick fully, to measure the oil level.
10.2 Ventilation screw
Before operating your machine, the bleed screw
should be loosened by some rotations until air can go
in and out of the oil tank smoothly. Failed to loosen the
bleed screw will keep the sealed air in hydraulic sys-
tem being compressed after being decompressed.
Such continuous compression/decompression will
blow out the seals of the hydraulic system and cause
permanent damage to your machine.
Before moving your machine, make sure the bleed
screw is tightened to avoid oil leaking from this point.
10.3 Splitting logs
Only split logs that have been sawn off straight. To do
this, proceed as follows:
1. Place the log plain onto the work table.
2. Your machine is equipped with Two-hands Con-
trol System that requires to be operated by both
hands of the user – left hand controls the control
lever (1) while right hand controls the push button
switch (6).
3. Simultaneously push button switch (6) to start the
splitting action.
The log splitter will freeze upon absence of either
hand.
