4.4. BLEEDSCREW (FIG.9)
4.4.1. Before operating the log splitter, the Bleed Screw should
be loosened by some rotations until air can go in and
out of the oil tank smoothly. Air ow through the Bleed
Screw hole should be detectable whilst the log splitter is under
operation. Before moving the log splitter, make sure the Bleed
Screw is tightened to avoid oil leaking from this point.
WARNING! Failure to loosen the bleed screw will keep
the sealed air in hydraulic system being compressed after
being decompressed. Such continuous air compression and
decompression will blow out the seals of the hydraulic system
and cause permanent damage to the log splitter.
