Choose the Correct Fit
Match the wedge and striking tool to the splitting task. Place the wood on stable support and clear the area around it.
Set the beveled edge securely before striking. Keep hands away from the striking face and follow the tool’s protective-equipment instructions.
Installation & Care
Aim controlled blows at the rounded striking surface. Stop if the wedge shifts, the support moves or either tool shows damage.
Inspect the striking face and blade after use. Follow the manufacturer’s maintenance guidance and retire a cracked or badly deformed wedge.
