<strong>BASIC</strong> <strong>8T</strong>/D WOOD SPLITTER<br />
Robust design, splitting knife out of special steel, all steel parts<br />
with high-quality powder coating, high-quality hydraulic pump.<br />
Engine with overheating fuse.<br />
Use as designated<br />
The log splitter has exclusively been designed to split wood<br />
along fibres. Installation, maintenance, repair, etc. instructions<br />
must strictly be followed to prevent risks and damage.When<br />
splitting, it is necessary to make sure the split wood is only<br />
fitted on the grooved sheet of the supporting plate or on the<br />
grooved sheet of the splitter table.<br />
The machine cannot be used for works other than for which<br />
the machine has been designed and that are specified in the<br />
Operating Instructions. Any other use is a use in conflict with<br />
the designation. The manufacturer will not be liable for any<br />
consequential damage and injuries. Please be sure to know<br />
that the machine has not been designed for industrial<br />
purposes.<br />

Safety instructions<br />
General<br />
For safety reasons it is necessary to respect and follow safety<br />
instructions specified in these Operating Instructions and<br />
instructions on the appliance relating to appliance operation,<br />
maintenance and repairs.<br />
Operating staff<br />
Using the wood splitter can be associated with some<br />
risks. Therefore only trained and experienced persons can<br />
handle the appliance and work with it. The operating staff<br />
must wear tight, close-fitting clothing and protective<br />
shoes.<br />
Caution: When splitting, dry and mature wood may<br />
get intensely shot out and injure the face of the operator.<br />
Please wear appropriate protective clothing!<br />
Workplace<br />
To ensure safe wood splitting, it is necessary that the<br />
workplace is flat and enables stability keeping and sufficient<br />
free moving. All obstacles need to be removed from access<br />
paths when bringing the splitter and taking it away. Sufficient<br />
workplace lighting must be ensured.<br />
Make sure no persons are present in the workplace<br />
during appliance operation or make sure they keep a<br />
sufficient safe distance.<br />
The log splitter has been designed to be operated by 1<br />
person. Two or more persons must never work with the<br />
appliance.<br />
Work preparation<br />
Current supply needs to be interrupted by pressing the red<br />
button on the switch and disconnecting the plug at any repairs<br />
or maintenance work and when leaving the wood splitter.<br />
Interrupting the current supply by putting the switch to<br />
OFF position is not sufficient. GÜDE wood splitters are<br />
fundamentally supplied with hardened splitting knives.<br />
However, if you detect any slight deformation of the knife edge<br />
after splitting wood containing any invisible foreign particles,<br />
e.g. out of concrete, steel, etc. then remove it by a file or<br />
grinding off. Keeping the splitting knife permanently sharp<br />
increases the working output.<br />
TIP: Occasionally grease the splitting knife with fat (for<br />
problem wood).<br />
The function of safety equipment (especially the twolever<br />
operation) needs to be checked before the splitter is<br />
put into operation for the first time.<br />
ATTENTION! Make sure the splitting table is safely<br />
secured to the splitter before the splitter is put into<br />
operation.<br />
Disposal<br />
The disposal instructions are based on icons placed on the<br />
machine or its package. The description of the meanings can<br />
be found in the “Marking“ section.<br />
Transport package disposal<br />
The package protects the machine against damage during<br />
transport. Packing materials are usually chosen depending on<br />
their environmental friendliness and disposal method and can<br />
therefore be recycled. Returning the package to material<br />
circulation saves raw materials and reduces waste disposal<br />
costs. Parts of packages (e.g. foils, styropor®) can be<br />
dangerous to children. Risk of suffocation! Keep parts of the<br />
package away from children and dispose them as soon as<br />
possible.<br />
