Log Splitter Care Tips

Before storage, the log splitter should be cleaned off and polished.  If green wood is being split, sap will accumulate on the main support beam and wedge: all sap and residue must be removed or the metal will rust.

Usually a normal cleaner or polish will remove sap, but if not, sap can be dissolved with mineral spirits. An automotive cleaner/wax will keep the metal rust-free in good condition.

Always store the log splitter with the bleed valve (release screw) open, so the hydraulic ram is completely retracted and not under pressure. That will prevent loss of hydraulic fluid past the seals during storage.

Put the levers or operating pumps into the fully retracted position, so the small hydraulic pump pistons are not exposed. They can rust in storage, and if the surface of the pistons becomes rough, they will greatly decrease the useful life of the rubber seals and gaskets.

THE HYDRAULIC UNIT

For proper operation, the hydraulic cylinder must be bled of air. If the log splitter has a notable lack of power, the hydraulic cylinder may have air in the system or be low on hydraulic fluid.
