See Figure 3-1.WARNINGAttaching the Tongue1. With the log splitter still standing upright, remove twohex bolts and hex nuts from the tank bracket. SeeFigure 3-2.Use extreme caution unpacking thismachine. Somecomponents are veryheavy and will requireadditional people ormechanical handlingequipment.2. Align the holes in the tongue with the holes in the tankbracket and secure with hardware just removed. SeeFigure 3-2.NOTE: High pressure hose must be above the tongueassembly.Connecting Cylinder to BeamThe log splitter is shipped with the beam in the verticalposition.1. Pull out the vertical beam lock, rotate it back, andpivot the beam to the horizontal position until it locks.See Figure 3-3.Figure 3-2NOTE: All referencesin this manual to theleft or right side of thelog splitter is from theoperating position only.Exceptions, if any, willbe specified.2. Disconnect the dislodger from the beam weld bracketby removing the six hex screws. See Figure 3-4.B21AFigure 3-3Figure 3-4

33. Disconnect the log cradle from the beam on the sideof the control valve. See Figure 3-5.4. Lift and slide the cylinder up to the top of beam andinto the weld brackets. See Figure 3-6.5. Attach the dislodger over the wedge assembly andsecure with hardware, previously removed, to the weldbrackets.Setting UpYour LogSplitterNOTE: Once the six hex screws are tightened, theremay be a slight gap between the dislodger and the weldbrackets. This gap is normal.6. Reattach the log cradle to the side of the beam withthe control valve, aligning the ends of the cradle withthe beam flanges.7. Roll log splitter off the bottom crate.Preparing the Log SplitterFigure 3-51. Lubricate the beam area (where the splitting wedgewill slide) with engine oil; do not use grease.WARNING2. Remove vented reservoir dipstick, which is located infront of the engine on top of the reservoir tank. SeeFigure 3-7.Much of the originalfluid has been drawninto the cylinder andhoses. Make certain torefill the reservoir toprevent damage to thehydraulic pump.IMPORTANT: The log splitter may have been shippedand primed with hydraulic fluid in the reservoir tank.However, you MUST check the fluid level before operating. If not filled, proceed with the following steps:3. Fill the reservoir tank with hydraulic fluid included withthis unit (if equipped) or approved fluids which includeDexron III / Mercon III automatic transmission fluid,a 10 Weight AW hydraulic oil or Pro-Mix AW-32Hydraulic Oil.4. Check fluid level using the dipstick. See Figure 3-7. Donot overfill.Figure 3-65. Replace vented dipstick securely, tightening it until thetop of the threads are flush with top of the pipe.6. Disconnect the spark plug and prime the pump bypulling the recoil starter as far as it will go. Repeatapproximately 10 times.IMPORTANT:The log splitter mayhave been shipped andprimed with hydraulicfluid in the reservoirtank. If not, proceedwith the followingsteps:7. Reconnect the spark plug wire and start enginefollowing instructions in the OPERATION section.8. Use control handle to engage the wedge to thefarthest extended position. Then retract the wedge.9. Refill tank as specified on the dipstick.NOTE: Failure to refill the tank will void unit’s warranty.10. Extend and retract the wedge 12 complete cyclesto remove trapped air in the system (the system is“self-bleeding”).11. Refill reservoir within range marked on the dipstick.WARNING: Much of the originalfluid has been drawn into the cylinderand hoses. Make certain to refill thereservoir to prevent damage to thehydraulic pump.Figure 3-7NOTE: Some fluid may overflow from the vent plug asthe system builds heat and the fluid expands and seeksa balanced level.
