Job Site
Considerations
Work Location
Only use this log splitter outdoors, and never leave
the area while the engine is running.
NEVER run
the engine indoors like in a garage, barn, carport,
or storage shed even if it is ventilated. Engine
exhaust is poisonous and can kill animals and you
without warning.
Always use the splitter on a flat, stable work sur-
face, and block the log splitter wheels so it cannot
roll forward or backwards.
Position the log splitter in a well lit, flat area at
least seven feet away from any dry leaves or com-
bustibles, and at least 25 feet from any fresh air
intake supplying working or living areas.
Working Clearances
Allow enough room on all sides to move logs to
and from the splitter.
Keep your work zone clear of lumber to avoid trip-
ping hazards while using the machine.
