Replace original log pusher with the
duo-cut blade. This enables your
machine to have twice the effective
splitting capacity of similarly rated
electric log splitters and ensures
that if a knot is encountered at one
end, it will still split from the other.
The duo-cut blade can be easily
bolted on in place of the standard
log pusher.
KNOW YOUR LOG SPLITTER
The safe use of this product requires an understanding of the information on
the product, this instruction manual as well as a knowledge of the project you
are attempting. Before use of this product, familiarize yourself with all operating
features and safety rules.

Before operating the log splitter,
loosen the bleed screw by
several rotations, until air is able
to enter and escape from the oil
tank smoothly. Airflow should be
detectable through hole in the bleed
screw when the log splitter is in use.
In order to avoid oil leaking from this
point, verify that the bleed screw
is tightened before moving the log
splitter.
MAXIMUM PRESSURE LIMITING
SCREW
The maximum pressure was set
before the log splitter left the
factory, and the maximum pressure
limiting screw is sealed with glue in
order to ensure that the log splitter
works under pressure that does not
exceed 5 tons. The pressure was
set by a qualified mechanic using
professional instruments.
Unauthorized resetting may cause
the hydraulic pump to fail to
generate enough splitting pressure,
or it may RESULT IN SERIOUS
INJURY AND/OR DAMAGE TO THE
LOG SPLITTER.
!DO NOT ADJUST THE MAXIMUM PRESSURE LIMITING SCREW.
!
FAILURE TO LOOSEN THE BLEED SCREW WILL KEEP THE SEALED AIR
IN THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM COMPRESSED AFTER DECOMPRESSION.
CONTINUOUS COMPRESSION AND DECOMPRESSION OF THE AIR
WILL BLOW OUT THE SEALS OF THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM, AND WILL
CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE LOG SPLITTER.

OPERATING CONDITIONS
This log splitter is intended for household use. It is designed to operate in ambient temperatures
between -20oand 40oC (-4º to 104ºF). The log splitter can be stored or transported in ambient
temperatures between -25oand 55oC (-13º to 130ºF).
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Plug the log splitter into a standard 120 V ( 10%) 60 Hz ( 1 Hz) electrical supply that has
under-voltage, over-voltage, and over-current protection devices, as well as a residual current
device (RCD) with a maximum residual current rated at 0.03 A.
Operation
WIRING DIAGRAM PLUMBING DIAGRAM

model number 060-3895-8 | contact us: 1.866.523.5218
Operation
A trigger-type lock-out device is used in order to avoid accidental pushdown of the hydraulic
control lever. In order to operate the hydraulic control lever, pull the trigger backward with the
index finger before pushing the hydraulic control lever forward.
After 5 seconds the pressurized oil will become overheated, which could damage the machine.
In the case of an extremely hard log, rotate it 90oand try to split it in a different direction. If you
are not able to split the log, this means that its hardness exceeds the capacity of the machine,
and therefore, the log should be discarded in order to protect the log splitter.
This log splitter is equipped with a
ZHB control system, which means
that the operator must use both
hands. The left hand controls the
hydraulic control lever, while the
right hand controls the pushbutton
switch. The log splitter will cease
all movement immediately if either
hand is removed from the controls.
The log pusher will only begin to
return to the starting position once
both hands have released the
controls.
Operator must be positioned at the
control end of the log splitter behind
the dashed line shown when the ram
is being operated.
!WARNING! Do not put pressure on the log splitter for more than 5 seconds
when attempting split very hard wood.
