To rebuild a cylinder:
The procedures to rebuild an “E-type” or an “X-type” cylinder are the same.
1.
Clean the log splitter to prevent any dirt or debris
from getting into the hydraulic system.
2.
Block the wheels of the log splitter to prevent it from
moving. See Figure 5.7.
NOTE: If there are hydraulic leaks or the possibility
further damage to the cylinder, skip step 3.
3.
Start the engine and cycle the control valve until the
ram is fully extended.
4.
Turn off the engine and allow the engine and the
hydraulic fluid to cool down.
5.
Relieve hydraulic pressure from the system by mov-
ing the lever on the control valve through it’s full
range of travel.
6.
Place a suitable 5 gallon bucket under the valve to
catch the hydraulic fluid from the cylinder and the
lines. See Figure 5.8.
7.
Disconnect the high pressure hose that goes to the
base of the cylinder from the control valve.
NOTE: Route the hose into the bucket.
8.
Disconnect the return hose from the oil filter hous-
ing.
NOTE: Route the hose into the bucket.
Hot hydraulic fluid can cause burns. Do not work on the cylinder until the hydraulic system has
cooled to ambient temperature after use.
Hydraulic fluid under high pressure can be dangerous. A high-pressure hydraulic fluid leak or
spray can penetrate the skin. If this happens, seek immediate medical attention to reduce the risk
of blood poisoning leading to death or limb amputation.
If a piece of hydraulic equipment develops a high pressure leak, turn it off immediately. Do not
operate it until the leak is repaired.
