SAFETY OPERATION MAINTENANCESETUP

Towing

DO NOT TRANSPORT THE LOG SPLITTER ON

PUBLIC ROADS. The Log Splitter is not certified by the

Department of Transportation for use on public roads.

1. Check tire condition and air pressure.

2. Make sure wheel lug nuts/bolts

are properly tightened.

3. Make sure hitch, coupler, tow bar, and other

equipment that connect the Log Splitter and the

tow vehicle are properly secured and adjusted.

4. Before towing the Log Splitter, remove the Lock

Pin (16) and lift the Support Leg (14) up so that it

is parallel to the Beam Assembly. Then, replace

the Lock Pin into the Horizontal Transport Hole

and secure using its clip. Refer to Figure B.

WARNING! The Support Leg must always be

secured in the horizontal position for towing and

returned to the down position before use.

5. Make sure the hitch (not included) is

compatible with the Hitch Coupler. The

Coupler will accept a 2 inch hitch ball.

6. Pull up and down on the Hitch Coupler to

make sure the hitch ball is fitting snugly in

the Hitch Coupler. There should be no play

between the hitch ball and Hitch Coupler.

7. Empty fuel tank before towing. Do not

carry cargo or wood on Log Splitter.

8. Always use the Safety Chains during towing. Do

not tow the Log Splitter at speeds above 45 MPH.

9. Follow all safety warnings for towing in the

towing vehicle manufacturer’s manual.

Tire Care

Checking Tire Pressure

Note: Underinflated tires can decrease handling,

stopping performance, traction, tire life, and

load-carrying capability, in addition to causing other

negative and hazardous effects, including tire failure.

Overinflated tires are at greater risk of an impact

break, where the tread and casing break when

striking a hard edge, often opening a huge gash

across the tread. Incorrect inflation pressure

also increases tires wear rate. Therefore, it is

important to keep tires inflated properly.

Check all tires’ pressure at least monthly,

due to the following factors:

• Most tires naturally lose air gradually.

• Tires can suddenly lose air if the tire

strikes a pothole, curb, or other object.

• It is usually not possible to determine

underinflation of radial tires by visual inspection.

This Log Splitter has 60 PSI recommended cold tire

inflation pressure. The term “cold” in this manual does

not refer to the temperature outside, but it refers to the

fact that a tire that has not been driven for a period is

cooler (and therefore has lower pressure) than a tire

that has been driven on. Tires heat up while being

driven on. To check (or fill to) a tire’s cold inflation,

the tire must have not been driven for more than a

mile or two for at least three hours. If you check a

tires pressure when it is not “cold”, the pressure will

appear higher than the actual cold tire inflation.
