3. Fill fuel tank with about 1.5 quarts of clean, fresh, lead-free grade
automotive gasoline. DO NOT use Ethly or high octane gasoline.
IMPORTANT: Your log splitter may be shipped with motor oil in the
engine. You MUST check the oil level before operating. Be careful not
to overfill.
NOTE: Gasoline can be added to the engine when the log splitter is
in either the horizontal or vertical position. However, there are less
obstructions when the unit is in the vertical position.
WaRninG
Use extreme care when handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely
flammable and the vapors are explosive. Never fuel machine indoors
or while the engine is hot or running.
NOTE: Do not use gasoline containing methanol. Gasoline containing
up to about 10% ethanol or up to 15% methyl tertiary butyl ether
(MTBE) may be used, but will require special care when engine is left
unused for extended period.

Remove oil fill dipstick.
NOTE: To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied
before storage for 30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the
engine and let it run until the fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use
fresh fuel next season. See STORAGE section for additional informa-
tion.
Check the oil level making certain not to rub the dipstick along the
inside walls of the oil fill tube. This would result in a false dipstick
reading. Refill to FULL mark on dipstick, if necessary. Replace
dipstick and tighten.

4.
If necessary, with the log splitter on level ground, use a funnel to fill
engine with oil to FULL mark on dipstick. Be careful not to overfill.
Overfilling will cause the engine to smoke profusely and will result
in poor engine performance.
Check oil level three times prior to starting engine to be certain
you’ve gotten an accurate dipstick reading. Running the engine with
too little oil can result in permanent engine damage.
