IMPORTANT: Please read these instructions care-
fully. Note the safe operational requirements, warn-
ings & cautions. Use the product correctly and with
care for the purpose for which it is intended. Failure to
do so may cause damage and/or personal injury and
will invalidate the warranty. Please keep these instruc-
tions safe for future use.
Safety And Maintenance
Keep the log splitter clean for safest and best performance.
Maintain the log splitter in a good condition. Use a qualified
person to lubricate and maintain the log splitter.
DO NOT top up hydraulic unit using brake fluid. Use hydraulic
jack oil only.
DO NOT operate the log splitter if damaged. Replace or repair
damaged parts.
Workshop/Environmental Safety
Locate the log splitter on dry, level and solid ground in a suit-
able work area with adequate lighting. Keep the area clean
and tidy and free from unrelated materials. Do not leave tools,
logs or other items lying around where they could become a
trip hazard.
DO NOT operate the log splitter in wet or damp areas or ex-
pose it to rain.

Safety
6
Wear protective clothing such as safety shoes and work
gloves. Always wear safety goggles. Everyday spectacles are
not sufficient protection.
Maintain correct balance and footing, do not over-reach. En-
sure the floor is not slippery and wear non-slip, protective
footwear.
DO NOT allow untrained persons to operate the log splitter.
DO NOT operate the log splitter with the guards or guides
removed.
DO NOT operate the log splitter when you are tired or under
the influence of alcohol, drugs or intoxicating medication.
The log splitter must always be operated by one person only.
Keep hands away from moving parts of the log splitter.
Keep hands away from splits and cracks which open in logs.
They may close suddenly which could cause serious personal
injury. For this reason do not attempt to remove jammed logs
by hand. A jammed log is a log which is only partially split
and continues to grip the splitting wedge.
Safety Of Others
DO NOT allow another person to help you with a jammed log.
Keep children and unauthorised persons away from the work
area.
The log splitter must always be operated by one person only.
Other people must keep a safe distance from the log splitter
especially when it is in operation.
Store the log splitter in a safe area away from children and
other people not qualified to use the log splitter.

Assembly
8
Before commencing assembly, check that you have all the
required parts and the correct nuts and bolts and ensure
you have read and understood these assembly instructions.
Ensure the assembly area is clean and free of obstructions.
Note that throughout these instructions, the terms left and
right refer to the users left and right when facing the front of
the splitter as in operation.
The initial stages of assembly are easier to carry out if the
log splitter is on it’s back. Stand behind the splitter and
holding the Duocut by the top of the vertical post, carefully
tilt it backwards and lie it on it’s back.
Step 1
Insert a wheel spacer(5) into
a wheel(6) then using an
M8x60 button head bolt(7)
and an M8 nut(8), attach
the wheel assembly to the
rear of the base as shown.
Tighten the nut and bolt
until they pinch the spacer.
Repeat for the opposite
wheel.

Step 4
Push the return valve knob
(13) over the return valve
stem that protrudes from the
front of the jack at the base
and secure the knob with the
grub screw (12). There is an
indentation is the valve stem
and the grub screw in the
valve knob should be aligned
with this before tightening.
Step 5
Hook one end of a spring
(4) through the hole in the
lug on the forward end of
the right hand jack arm and
hook the other end through
the hole in the middle of the
vertical face of the platform
support arm. The spring
should be hooked on from
the outside. Repeat for the
other spring on the left hand
jack arm.
