Caution! Residual Hydraulic Energy!
Residual energy must be released from the pressurized hydraulic fluid before any maintenance or repair
work is done on the log splitter. Hydraulic fluid can remain highly pressurized even while the splitter’s
motor is off. Escaping pressurized hydraulic fluid can penetrate skin and cause serious injury.
To release residual hydraulic energy:
1. Shut off engine
2. Move control valve back and forth, from one limit of travel to the other, at least four times
3. Hold valve for three seconds at each limit of travel

or death!
Attention Rental Companies
It is extremely important that you familiarize operators with the following safety instructions and that you keep a
manual with the machine at all times. Require all users to read the manual before operation and are aware of all
warnings and hazards.
High Pressure Warning!
Escaping hydraulic fl uid can penetrate skin and cause
serious injury!
Caution! Residual High Pressure Hydraulic Energy
Your log splitter has been tested at the factory and is delivered to you ready to run. That means that there may be
residual pressure in the hydraulic system. If for some reason you need to perform any maintenance or repair to the
machine, you must release that pressure before any work can begin. Please refer to page 7 for instructions.

Safety
Drawing In/Trapping Hazard
Drawing in/trapping points exist where objects are pulled into equipment, e.g., when a log drops onto the log cradle
from the log lift. Machines are stronger and faster than people; always stop the equipment before attempting to remove
an item that is stuck. Remember, guards cannot be provided for all situations and equipment must be able to function
in the capacity for which it was designed.
Impact Hazard
Impact hazards can be broken down into two categories: forceful collision and contact. The fi rst type of impact hazard,
forceful collision, is the result of machinery or processes where any movement of tools, machine elements or particles
could impact an operator. The second type of impact hazard, contact, refers to the movement of personnel that could
result in collision with stationary or moving objects. For example, an operator could collide with a part of the log splitter
while handling wood in preparation to splitting. Guarding may not be feasible for these types of hazards. Be aware
of your surroundings, never place yourself in a situation where you are in the path of a moving piece of
equipment.
Burn Hazard
The potential for burns exist in and around the engine. Be careful not to touch any of these surfaces, which are
covered in the manufacturer’s safety warnings. Read the engine manufacturer’s warnings and follow their instructions
carefully.

precautions outlined by the engine manufacturer or fi re and serious injury may result
• Store fuel and oils in an approved fl ammable liquid storage container
• Dispose of waste liquids, spill-cleaning material and oil-soaked rags in an appropriate covered fi reproof

• Only use dry powder, foam, or CO2 type fi re extinguishers on or near the log splitter
• Never use water to extinguish any gasoline or oil fi re
Moving the Log Splitter
• Only use suitable rated transport devices to move your log splitter
• The log splitter is heavy and requires the proper equipment to lift or move. Observe proper procedures
for lifting and/or moving the log splitter
• Wear steel-toed boots when moving or operating the log splitter
Residual Risk
Residual Risk is defi ned as the portion of risk that remains after all safety measures have been taken.
Although we have taken extensive measures to protect the operator and/or maintenance personnel from
injury, all hazards cannot be removed. This manual provides graphical illustrations to aid in identifying
potentially hazardous areas associated with your Timberwolf log splitter.
