Lubricate both sides of the beam (where it comes into contact with
the splitting wedge), before each use, with engine oil. The wedge
plate on the log splitter is designed so the gibs on the side of the
wedge plate can be removed and rotated and/or turned over for
even wear.
Make certain to readjust the adjustment bolts so wedge moves
freely, but no excess space exists between the wedge plate and the
beam.
