Application
These Operating Instructions apply to
the following machines:
Correct application
The log splitter is only suited for
splitting logs up to a maximum length
of 55 cm.
Min. log diameter: 8 cm
Max. log diameter: 40 cm
Min. log length: 10 cm
Max. log length: 10 cm
Description
The log splitter is a wood splitting
machine with a maximum log splitting
length of 55 cm. The stroke of the
riving knife is variable for shorter logs.
The splitting tool is hydraulically driven.
The hydraulic system is driven by an
electric motor or a petrol engine.
The machine is operated by a two-hand
control lever safety element.
Upon simultaneously pulling the control
levers of the safety switch, the pressure
plate moves out.
Upon releasing the control levers, the
pressure plate stops.
By pressing the control levers forward
for an instant, the pressure plate moves
back into its base position.
The log is positioned in the trough.
During the splitting operation, the
pressure plate presses the log against
the splitting knife, causing the log to
be split.

General safety regulations
The machine may only be operated
by personnel understanding the
function, dangers and operating instruc-
tions.
Only operate machine if securely
installed.
Minimum operator age: 18.
Always wear protective shoes and
tight clothing.
Never use faulty supply linesn.
Ensure that working area is suf-
ficiently illuminated, as insufficient illu-
mination increases the danger of injury
considerably!
Machines with electrical drive must
not be operated in rainy weather as
this could lead to a defect of the switch
or the electrical motor!
Only operate machine with one ope-
rator!
Do not hold log whilst splitting.
Keep operating area free from wood
chips and remnants.
Never split logs that have been cut
diagonally!
Never leave running machine unat-
tended.
Switch off drive before removing
stuck logs.
The minimum log length is 10 cm,
the maximum log length is 55 cm.
Never work without guards.
Switch off drive before changing
machine.
Always completely retract riving knife
for transportation and when machine
is stopped.
Only use original “Mr. Paldu“ spare
parts.
All electrical work must be carried
out by qualified electricians.
Never operate petrol engine machi-
nes in enclosed areas as carbon monoxide
could build up!
Noise information
The operational noise level is 70 db(A).
For petrol engine machines a noise
level of 90 dB(A) can be expected near
the operator's ears. We therefore
strongly recommend the use of ear
protection.

Operating the log splitter
Set-up
Position machine on level and firm
ground. Position board under feet if
ground is too soft.
Caution! Only operate machine if set
up securely!
Start-up
Note: In temperatures below 0°C, leave
machine to idle for approx. 5 minutes
without operating the control lever until
the hydraulic system has reached its
operating temperature.
230 V motor models
Connect machine to power supply.
• Supply voltage 230 V (50 Hz)
• Use 16 A fuse)
• The supply cable must have a
minimum diameter of 2.5 mm2.
400 V motor models
Connect machine to power supply.
• Supply voltage 400 V (50 Hz)
Caution! The mains supply must not
fall below 340 V in order to avoid
damages to the switch.
• Use 16 A fuse)
• The supply cable must have a
minimum diameter of 2.5 mm2.
Observe the direction of rotation of
the electrical motor (see arrow on
motor).
In case of wrong rotation direction:
• The switch plug contains a phase
reverser for changing the rotation
direction of the motor (push down
plate in plug with screwdriver and
turn by 180°).
Fig. 3 - Phase reverser
Caution! If the plugging connections
are too tight the CEE-plug can be torn
out of the switch case.
Page 8
Operating the log splitter
• Remedial measures are the use
of trade mark plugs and the use of
a silicone spray.
Note: We cannot grant any warranty
replacements for such damages at the
switch resulting of above.
Check direction of rotation:
Switch motor on and off and observe
rotation direction before motor stops.
Caution! An incorrect rotation direction
may cause pump breakage!
Petrol engine drive models
Note: Check oil level before starting
motor.
Start-up of petrol engine, see Engine
Operating Instructions.
Fuel consumption: 0.62 liters per
hour
Fuel type: unleaded petrol
Note: For further information see
engine operating instructions.
Operation of two-hand
control
Fig. 4 - Two-hand control lever
Position “0”
Control lever base position - no
movement of splitting tool.
Position “I”
Both control levers pulled
simultaneously. As long as the control
levers are maintained in this position,
the splitting tool moves out.
Position “II”
In this position the pressure plate
moves at top speed and with reduced
splitting power.
Position “III”
By pushing both control levers forward
for an instant, the splitting tool returns
to its base position and then switches
back to the “0“ position.

Operating the log splitter
Splitting operation
1. Position the log into the log
trough.
2. Operate the control levers.
• The pressure plate moves out,
pressing the log against the splitting
knife.
Splitting directions
Position branchy logs with branches
facing upwards before splitting.
The logs must be pressed longitudi-
nally against the splitting knife.
Splitting of difficult logs (knots, bran-
ches):
• Split logs from edge.
Caution! The machine is designed for
one-man-operation only! During splitting
and the return stroke of the pressure
plate, the log may not be held by other
operators as this may lead to grave
injuries.
Caution! In case of danger, push the
red OFF button on the machine imme-
diately.
Adjustment of splitting
movement (stroke)
Fig. 5 - Adjustment of Splitting Movement (stroke)
The machine out of the factory is
adjusted for the maximum ram stroke.
The stroke of the ram can be steplessly
adjusted up to 54 cm.
1. Lifting of the pressure plate.
2. Turning off the machine.
3. Loosen the locking screw. Subse-
quently, slide the locking unit into
the desired position and tighten by
hand.

Inspection
Inspection
Caution! Switch off machine and dis-
connect electrical drive machines from
mains before inspection!
Screw connections
Tighten all nuts and bolts after the
first operating hour.
Tighten nuts and bolts every 100
operating hours.
Replace loosen nuts and bolts.
Check all hydraulic connections for
tightness and secure seat.
Pressure plate guide
The pressure plate guide must be
greased at all times (see Table 3:
Suitable lubrication greases).
Hydraulic system
Check oil level when riving knife is
retracted.
Fig. 6 - Dip stick
Check oil level. The oil level must be
in between the marking and the end
of the dip stick. If no oil is visible on
the dip stick fill with hydraulic oil
immediately.

Pressure plate guide
The pressure plate guide must be
greased at all times (apply grease with
brush).
Oil change
Caution! Dispose of used oil in accor-
dance with environmental regulations.
Check legal environmental regulations.
Note: Before changing oil, retract pres-
sure plate.
The first oil change should be carried
out after 50 operating hours and
further oil changes should also be
carried out every 50 operating hours
or at least once yearly.
• The oil drain plug is located at
the bottom of the oil tank.
When the oil-level gauge is full,

Servicing
Oil filter
The oil filter should be checked and
cleaned during every oil change
(aluminium shavings possibly detected
during the first inspection are of no
concern and stem from the running-in
of the pump).
The filter can be cleaned with petrol
or paraffin. Compressed air should also
be blown from the inside of the
cartridge, blowing out any remaining
dirt particles.
The frequency of the filter cleaning
depends on the operating conditions.
In case of heavy soiling, i.e. rusting
stemming from extreme condensation,
the filter should be cleaned more
regular.
Cleaning
Clean the machinery at regular intervals
to guarantee best operation.
Wash the new machine (first 3 months)
only with a sponge!
• The varnish is not completely har-
dened at that time therefore it is
possible that varnish damages can
happen when using a high-pressure
cleaner.

Additional equipment
Additional equipment
Splitting cross
The logs are split into 4 parts in
one splitting stroke.
Fig. 7 - Splitting cross
Mounting:
• The criss-cross wedge is moved
over the riving knife.
Log support
The log support prevents the log
from falling to the ground after it has
been split.
Fig. 8 - Log support
Mounting:
• Hang the log support onto the
frame.
Note: When the log support is not
required, it can be hung at the same
position 90° downwards.
