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

Operating staff requirements
11
The operating staff must carefully read the Operating
Instructions before using the appliance.
Qualification
Apart from the detailed instruction by a professional no special
qualification is necessary for using the appliance.
Minimum age
Only persons over 18 years of age can work with the
appliance. An exception includes youngsters if they work
within their professional education the purpose of which is to
obtain knowledge supervised by a trainer.
Inspections and servicing (pic. 2+7+8)
Safety instructions for inspections and servicing:
Only a regularly serviced and treated appliance may be a
satisfactory aid. Inadequate servicing and maintenance may
lead to unforeseen accidents and injuries.
• Never use aggressive cleaning agents to clean the
appliance. That could damage or destroy the
appliance.
• Unplug the appliance.
• Have any repairs and servicing of the electrical
equipment provided by electricians only.
• All protective and safety equipment must be immediately
refitted after repairs and servicing works are finished.
The following is recommended (pic. 2):
• Splitting knife
The splitting knife is a component that is subject to quick
wear and must be ground down additionally if necessary.
That will increase the splitting output and protect the
splitter. Tip: lubricate the splitting knife with fat!
• Two-hand protective equipment
The combined holding and clamping equipment must run
easily. From time to time, lubricate it with a few drops of
oil.
• Splitting post
Every time the appliance is to be used, lubricate the
splitting post with fat. That will increase the service life of
the sliding jaws (pic. A/2). Pull the splitting post out to the
full extent and equally apply multi-purpose fat to all 4
sides of the splitting post.
• Movable parts
Keep the splitting knife guide clean (remove any dirt,
splinters, bark, etc.). Slide rails to be lubricated with fat.
• Hydraulic equipment
Hydraulic connections screwing should be checked for
leaking and wear. Tighten the screwing if necessary.
Checking the hydraulic oil level (pic. 7+8):
Check the hydraulic oil level only when in a cold
condition, feeder cable disconnected and splitting post
pulled in.
On the oil level dipstick there are two notches – the lower (pic.
8/1) is the minimum hydraulic oil limit level in the tank and the
upper notch (pic. 8/2) is the maximum limit.
• Unscrew the oil level dipstick (pic. 7/A) from the
opening.
• Wipe the oil from the dipstick with a non-felt cloth.
• Re-screw the dipstick in the opening.
• Unscrew the filling screw with the dipstick again and
check whether the hydraulic oil upper limit is between
both notches.
Change the oil once a year (pic. 7+8):
• Unscrew the oil drain plug (pic.7/A).
• Catch the waste oil (every model with different amount)
• Dispose the waste oil in an environment-friendly manner
• Re-screw the oil drain plug. No particles of dirt may get
in the oil tank.
• Add the hydraulic oil up to the upper notch on the dipstick
(pic. 82)
• Try the wood splitter with no load several times.
Recommended hydraulic oil: DIN ISO HLP 46
Güde Art. No. 42004
Viscosity: 46
Oil amount: (see Technical specifications)
Oil to be added only when the splitting post is in the
engaged
Hydraulic equipment:
Hydraulic hoses and couplings must be checked after app. 4
hours of operation whether tight and must be tightened if
necessary.
Checking the appliance whether it is working properly
The hydraulic wood splitter is supplied in a ready-to-operate
state. The following functional checks need to be carried out
every time the appliance is to be used.
• Let both switching handles go down and the splitting knife
• Lower one switching handle at a time – the splitting knife
position.
as low as app. 5 cm above the table
will remain in the selected position
Assembly of service arms, wheels and table
(pic. 1 and 4)
Assembly of service arms - pic. 1
Introduce control arm (Fig. 1/4) in the rocker switch (Fig. 1/14),
top with bolt, washer and split pin. Now the control arm (Fig.
1/4) by the method on the other fix. The protection system
(Fig. 1/13) Mount to both operating arms, each with two bolts
(Fig. 1/3).
TIP: Grease metal couplings (pic 1/15) with fat from above
and below before that!
Assembly of wheels – pic. 4
Mount on both sides of the impeller and secure both with a
cotter pin (A).
Table assembly - pic. 1
Depending on the split wood length, the table board can be
fixed in three heights - 570 mm, 770 mm and 1,060 mm.
Table locking levers (pic. 1/7) are fixed in every assembly
position. Insert the table board to the required holders (pic.
1/6).
Lift adjusting (pic. 5)
The working output can be increased for wood pieces smaller
than app. 50 cm and for more wood pieces by shortening the
backward movement of the splitting knife.
Proceed as follows:
Put a short piece of wood on the splitter table and move the
splitting knife as low as app. 2 cm above the wood. Switch the
splitter off (red button on the switch and disconnect the plug).
Now you can shorten the backward movement using the fixed
rod (pic. 5/B) by fixing the rod in the required height with the
adjusting screw (pic. 5/A).
Area of application
The appliance can only be used for wood processing. The split
material must have the following dimensions:
- Minimum diameter: 125 mm
Maximum diameter: 400 mm
- Wood splitting along fibre is only allowed.
- Risk of getting jammed at branchy wood when splitting.
- Jammed piece of wood is released by tipping on the
wood.
- Cutting the split wood out prohibited!

Electric/hydraulic connection (pic. 1+6+7)
12
Plugging (Pic. 1/10)
All splitters are fitted with undervoltage release in the switch in
accordance with provisions of branch professional
organisations “CE“, etc. The release prevents automatic
starting of the appliance in case supply is interrupted as a
result of power failure, unintentional unplugging, defective
fuse, etc. The appliance must unconditionally be switched on
again by pressing the green switching button.
Wilful holding or blocking of the switching button with no
directly earthed conductor automatically leads to switch failure.
In this case that can subsequently be identified the guarantee
expires.
Hydraulic equipment
Tightness needs to be checked at hydraulic hoses and
couplings after app. 4 running hours and tighting must be
provided if necessary.
Only at 400 V appliances: It is necessary to be particular
about the running direction of the engine (see the arrow
on the engine) as running in wrong running direction can
damage the oil pump. In such a case, all claims arising
from the guarantee expire. If necessary, have the running
direction changed by reversal of polarity of the plug. See
pic. 6!
Hydraulic oil/tank
Common hydraulic oil (e.g. HLP 46 or oil of different producer
of identical viscosity) can be filled in all splitters. Oil change is
not necessary.
Vent the tank before each operation by screwing the filling
screw out and in (pic. 7/A).
Operation
Attention: Make sure wood is cut at right angle, if
possible, and seated closely on the splitting table. Crosscut or extremely branchy wood can slide or bend the
service arms.
Always put wood on surfaces (tables) designated for
this purpose (never on the frame). That could damage the
splitter.
1. Start the engine by pressing the green switching button.
Attention: Be particular about the running direction of
the engine!
2. Keep the feeder cable as short as possible at 230
V models and select as big cross section as possible.
3. When the temperature is low, let the splitter run idle
for app. 15 minutes so that oil warms up to
corresponding temperature.
4. Put the split material on the table and hold it using
clamping plates on the lever.
5. Splitting starts by pressing both levers down (as soon as
the splitting knife enters wood tip the lever slightly out
while pressing it down. This will prevent holding sheets
(arms) from bending).
6. Lift at least one lever after you have finished splitting – the
splitter pillar will automatically go up.
It is strictly prohibited to operate the wood splitter in
two persons with one holding wood and the other one
pressing on the clamping plates.
Transport instructions
Transport
All wood splitters are fitted with big wheels. Grasp the handle
on the splitting pillar with one hand and handle above the
engine with the other hand and slightly tilt the splitter to you for
transport purposes. The splitter can effortlessly be moved in
this position.
To prevent hydraulic oil leakage, never transport the
splitter laid down
Always let the splitting knife go absolutely down
.
