User manual ATIKA ASP 5,5 BROCHURE

[. . . ] Keep other persons or animals out of the danger area (minimum distance 5 m). Even if used properly, residual risks can exist even if the relevant safety regulations are complied with due to the design determined by the intended purpose. Residual risks can be minimised if the "Safety information" and the "Intended usage" as well as the whole of the operating instructions are observed. Observing these instructions, and taking proper care, will reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment. [. . . ] Accidents can arise for the user through the use of other spare parts. The manufacturer is not liable for any damage or injury resulting from such action. All screws are tight check the hydraulic system for any possible leaks - the oil level The transport 6 closure with gasket must be replaced before the initiation by the oil dipstick. Move the splitting blade right down every time before the machine is transported. to transport the machine , grasp the strap one hand and tilt the log splitter slightly towards you. To avoid the escape of oil during the transport the oil dipstick must be replaced by the transport closure. Do not use any device where the switch can not be switched on and off. Damaged switches must be repaired or replaced immediately by the customer service. Ensure that the working area meets the following conditions: - no danger of slipping - level - free of obstacles - sufficiently well lit Do not operate the machine in the direct vicinity of gas or petrol pipes or containers, or any other easily inflammable materials. Before using the log splitter, make sure each time that - there are no faulty connections (tears, cuts, etc. Lock in case of power (zero-voltage initiator) The equipment will switch off automatically if there is a power cut. Make sure that the motor turns in the correct direction (see motor arrow), because operation in the wrong direction damages the oil pump. You can change the 8 direction by placing a screwdriver in the slot provided in the plug collar, and adjust the correct direction by moving to the left or right applying slight pressure. 300 mm The log diameter is a recommended guideline figure, because: - thin logs can be difficult to split if they contain knots or if the fibres are too strong. - logs with a diameter of over 300 mm can be split if the fibres are smooth and open. Dry logs are much easier to split, and do not cause jams as often as green (damp) wood. Never operate the machine in the event of any possible danger from hydraulic fluid. Check the hydraulic reservoir regularly to ensure that it contains enough hydraulic oil (see "Care and maintenance") Capacity: 4. Place the log on 10 the splitting table and press the two control handles to bring the splitting blade down to approx. Use the table in a position that comes close to the log length and secure it with the locking hooks. Shorten the return path at the rod fitted to the side by fixing the holding screw at the necessary height. Possible malfunction when cleaving logs: The log to be cleaved is not cleaved right through, jams on the cleaving blade and is pulled up during the blade's return movement. [. . . ] Splitting column does not move Hydraulic pump defective To correct the problem, refer to the manufacturer or other approved service centre. Motor starts up but splitting Motor turns in wrong direction Check the motor direction column does not move Threephase: adjust the motor direction (s. Page 18) AC: To correct the problem, refer to the manufacturer or other approved service centre. No electrical power Have fuse and lead checked by qualified 2-phase mode in threephase motor electrician. [. . . ]
