To set up the Scheppach HL760LS log splitter, ensure it is placed on a stable, level surface. Attach the wheels and support legs as instructed in the manual. Fill the hydraulic oil reservoir to the recommended level, and check for any loose bolts or connections before use.
Ensure that the logs are within the recommended size and are not too dry or too green. Check the hydraulic oil level and top up if necessary. Inspect the wedge for dullness and sharpen if required. Also, verify all connections and ensure there are no leaks in the hydraulic system.
Regular maintenance includes checking and replacing the hydraulic oil annually, inspecting and tightening all bolts, and cleaning the machine after each use. Lubricate moving parts as recommended in the user manual and store the splitter in a dry place.
Always wear safety goggles, gloves, and steel-toed boots. Ensure that the work area is clear of debris and that no one else is nearby. Keep hands away from the splitting wedge and logs while the machine is operating. Do not exceed the maximum log size specified in the manual.
Unusual noises can indicate mechanical issues or air in the hydraulic system. First, check for any loose parts or debris lodged in the machine. Bleed the hydraulic system to remove air, and ensure the hydraulic oil is at the correct level. If noises persist, consult a professional technician.
To bleed the hydraulic system, cycle the ram fully forward and backward several times with no load. This process helps expel air trapped in the system. Ensure the hydraulic oil level is correct before and after bleeding.
Yes, but it's important to allow the hydraulic system to warm up before starting full operations. Cold temperatures can affect hydraulic oil viscosity, so consider using a lower viscosity oil suitable for cold conditions.
Use a high-quality hydraulic oil with anti-wear properties, such as ISO VG32 or VG46, as recommended in the user manual. Ensure the oil is compatible with the temperature range in which you will be operating the splitter.
Before transporting, ensure the splitter is turned off and disconnected from any power source. Use the wheels and handle to move the splitter, keeping it upright. Secure it properly if transporting by vehicle to prevent movement during transit.
First, stop using the splitter to prevent further damage. Check all hoses, seals, and connections for signs of wear or damage. Replace any defective parts and refill the hydraulic fluid as necessary. Consult a professional if you are unable to locate the source of the leak.
