How to use

Before use, inspect the axe for cracks in the handle and ensure the head is securely attached. Work on a flat, stable surface and use a chopping block to support the log. Wear personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves. Position the log vertically and place the blade on the end grain aligned with the wood fibers. Make a controlled swing using your body and shoulders while avoiding overly abrupt or uncontrolled strikes. If necessary, deliver several blows along the same line until the log splits. After use, clean the blade of resin and sawdust and inspect the tool for any damage.

Recommendations

Store the tool in a dry place and periodically check the condition of the plastic handle and the sharpness of the blade; stop use and repair the axe if any looseness or damage is detected.

To extend service life, keep the blade sharp to improve efficiency and reduce the risk of the axe sticking. Avoid striking nails or other metal objects in the wood. For frequent use, consider a protective sheath for the blade and regular checks of the axe head fastening.
