Additional Safety Instructions for Hydraulic

Log Splitters

1. PROTECTING CHILDREN. Keep children

away from the log splitter at all times! It is

not a toy. Never allow any child to climb

onto the log splitter.

7. HYDRAULIC PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE.

Adjusting the pressure limit screw may lead

to a hydraulic explosion and seriously injure

the operator and bystanders. The pressure

relief valve is factory set and should not be

adjusted unless by a professional hydraulic

technician.

2. ADEQUATE VENTILATION. The log

splitter engine produces carbon monoxide,

which is a poisonous gas. Make sure the

work area is adequately ventilated. Never

operate this machine indoors or in any type

of enclosed area including a carport.

8. TOWING. This log splitter is not designed

to be towed on logging roads, forest ser-

vice roads, public roads, or highways. This

machine is designed for job site towing only

where maximum speed will not exceed 12

MPH.

3. HOT ENGINE. Motor parts get hot

during operation. Allow to cool before

placing hands near motor, adding fuel, or

performing any service or maintenance.

9. CORRECT USAGE. Never split wood across

the grain or use the log splitter to split con-

crete blocks, rocks, or to bend metal.

4. FUEL SPILLS. Fuel exposed to hot engine

components may ignite. Thoroughly clean

all fuel spills before starting the engine.

10. WORKPIECE SELECTION. Logs with exten-

sive knotting may be difficult or impossible

to split. Making repeated attempts to split

an unsuitable log will increase wear on the

pressure relief valve, hydraulic lines, and

increase the risk of operator injury.

5. FLUID INJECTION. Fluid pressures

developed from this machine are up

to 3000 PSI, which are high enough

to penetrate your skin and enter your

bloodstream. Hydraulic fluid injected into

your bloodstream is a medical emergency.

If not treated immediately, this blood

poisoning could result in an aggressive

infection, amputation, or death. Keep

body parts away from any high pressure

hydraulic leak.

11. CORRECT USAGE. Never attempt to split

more than one log at a time. Doing so may

cause logs to fly off the splitter with great

force, resulting in serious injury or death.

12. SUPPORTING LOGS BY HAND. Never use

any part of your body to guide or steady a

log when the ram is moving. Failure to follow

this instruction can result in serious personal

injury, including loss of limbs.

6. TROUBLESHOOTING. Some high pres-

sure streams can be almost invisible to the

naked eye. If you suspect a hydraulic leak,

DO NOT use your hand or fingers to locate

it. Instead keep your skin at least 12" away

from potential leaking areas and move a

strip of cardboard to the areas where the

leak may exist and watch to see if hydrau-

lic oil is sprayed onto the cardboard.

13. MACHINE LOCATION. Never leave the split-

ter unattended and running, always block the

wheels to prevent rolling, and store the unit in

a locked location.

Test Run/Break-In

This machine presents

serious injury hazards

to untrained users. Read

through this entire man-

ual and the Briggs &

Stratton engine manual

to become familiar with

the controls and opera-

tions before starting

engine and using the log

splitter!

During this procedure do not leave the area.

To test run and break-in the log splitter:

1. Read and understand the Briggs & Stratton

engine manual that accompanied this log

splitter and follow all safety precautions.

2. Read and understand this entire manual and

follow all safety precautions.

3. Make sure the hydraulic tank and engine

have been filled to the required oil levels.

HYDRAULIC INJECTION

HAZARD.

4. Start the engine and let it run at 75% throttle

for one hour to break in the motor.

Hydraulic oil leaks can

be under sufficient pres-

sure to penetrate your

skin and enter your

bloodstream. If oil is

injected into any part of

your body, it is a medi-

cal emergency and may,

if not treated immediate-

ly, result in severe infec-

tion, permanent disabil-

ity, or even death.

5. Move the control lever to cycle the log

splitter ram back and forth periodically during

the break-in process to bleed the hydraulic

system and look for oil leaks. Do not operate

the log splitter at full load until after the engine

break-in has been completed.

6. After the first 5 to 10 hours of initial operation,

change the engine oil.

If any problem or oil leak is found, before you

troubleshoot or correct the problem:

1. Shut the engine down immediately and let it

cool for at least 15 minutes to prevent burn

injuries.

2. Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark

plug to prevent the possibility of accidental

start-up.

3. If an oil leak is suspected or seen, DO NOT

touch the area to find the leak. Move the

control lever completely to the forward and

backward positions to relieve any hydraulic

pressure and prevent the possibility of any

hydraulic injection fluid injury during repair.

4. Refer to Troubleshooting on Page 22 for

solutions, or call Technical Support at (570)

546-9663.

SECTION 3: OPERATIONS

Operation Safety

Job Site

Considerations

Work Location

Damage to your eyes and hearing could

result from using this machine without prop-

er protective gear. Always wear safety glass-

es and hearing protection, when operating

this machine.

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.

NEVER run the engine

indoors such as 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.

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.

Always wear gloves

when operating this log

splitter!

NOTICE

If you have never used this type of machine

or equipment before, WE STRONGLY REC-

OMMEND that you read books, trade maga-

zines, or get formal training before begin-

ning any projects. Regardless of the con-

tent in this section, Grizzly Industrial will

not be held liable for accidents caused by

lack of training.

Transporting

Control Valve

When the engine is running and the control valve

lever is in the neutral position (Figure 20), the

hydraulic pump delivers hydraulic ﬂuid at 8 GPM

through the control valve and back into the hy-

draulic tank.

The Model G0639 log splitter is not designed

to be towed on logging roads, forest ser-

vice roads, public roads, or highways. This

machine is designed for job site towing only

where maximum speed will not exceed 12

MPH. The log splitter must be transported

between job sites on a trailer capable of car-

rying 1000 lbs.

When you push the control lever to the forward

position, the control valve diverts hydraulic ﬂuid

up to 3000 PSI to one side of the 4" splitter piston

moving the splitter wedge into the log and split-

ting the log in half. The maximum distance of the

wedge stroke is 24".

To tow the splitter:

When you push the control lever to the full back-

ward position, the lever locks in retract mode, and

the control valve diverts the hydraulic ﬂuid to the

other side of the splitter piston. As a result, both of

your hands are free to load the next log for split-

ting. When the ram fully retracts, the control lever

automatically moves back to neutral, and the log

splitter is ready to split another log.

1. Lower the log splitter cylinder and beam to

the horizontal position and lock it in place.

2. Raise and lock the front and rear landing legs

in the uppermost position with the lock pins.

3. Unlatch the receiver lock lever and place the

receiver onto the tow ball.

4. Make sure that the tow ball is fully seated

Neutral

inside of the receiver.

Forward

Backward

5. Push down on the receiver lock lever until it

pulls the lock tongue up against the under-

side of the tow ball and locks the tow ball and

receiver together.

6. Secure the safety chains to the tow vehicle

and double check all your connections.

Splitting Logs

This log splitter is ONLY designed to split wood

with the grain direction. DO NOT attempt to split

or crush wood against the grain, or split brick,

concrete blocks, or rock. If you do, you will dam-

age the machine, void the warranty, and possibly

severely injure or kill bystanders or yourself.

5. Closely inspect all components and hydraulic

lines for any evidence of damage, wear,

or unsafe conditions; and correct before

proceeding any further.

6. Put on your safety glasses, hearing protection,

and thick leather gloves.

To operate the log splitter:

Follow the maintenance schedule below and refer

to any specific instructions given in this section.

Before each use:

•

Make sure hydraulic oil and engine oil levels

are full.

Figure 22. Vent cap location.

•

Make sure leaks, kinks, or abrasions do not

exist in hydraulic hoses or fuel lines.

Inspect for loose or bent components.

Inspect that safety features, and appropriate

guards are working and are in place.

3. Shine a flashlight down into the vent port

until you see hydraulic fluid. The fluid surface

should be 1" from the top of the hydraulic

tank as shown in Figure 23.

•

4. Add hydraulic fluid as required.

Every 150 hours of use:

•

Clean hydraulic tank vent cap (Figure 22)

with solvent, and let air dry, and reinstall.

5. Pull the tank vent off.

Inspect for burnt-smelling or tan-colored water

contaminated hydraulic fluid. If contaminated,

replace tank breather, clean tank filter/strainer,

flush system, and replace fluid.

6. Clean the tank vent with mineral spirits and

let air dry.

7. Clean the tank screen with mineral spirits and

blow dry with compressed air.

8. Inspect the screen and tank vent for any

holes and replace if any damage exists.

Always wear safety gog-

gles when servicing the

hydraulic system.

9. Reach into the tank and wipe out as much

residual fluid and contaminants as possible.

We highly recommend that the tank be

cleaned out with a pressure washer or steam

cleaner and fully dried with compressed air

for best results.

To change the hydraulic fluid:

1. Chock the log splitter wheels to prevent it

from rolling.

Sharpening the

Splitting Wedge

��

Always wear leather

gloves when sharpening

the splitting wedge.

During the life of your log splitter, you will need

to sharpen the splitting wedge periodically. When

sharpening the wedge, keep in mind that if you try

and keep the wedge sharpened to a razor point

(like an axe blade), you will greatly reduce the life

of the wedge by always sharpening it. However,

if you allow the point to become very dull or

bullnosed, your log splitter will have to overwork

to split logs, which will decrease the lifespan of

the splitter. The optimum point is somewhere

between. Refer to Figure 25 for a general idea.
