farmsplitter

New here, just received my Northern 37 Ton log splitter. Put it together and everything went well. Started it up, Honda 270cc motor runs smooth. Cycle the ram back and forth to bleed the air, no problems. Toss a stick up to split it and nuttin... the wedge hits the wood and it won't split. This is supposed to have a 2 stage pump? I don't hear the second stage engage. I looked in the book and it tells me that I need to adjust the control valve with a pressure gauge. I don't have a pressure gauge. Everything else looks fine, other than having a 2k dollar splitter that doesn't split. Any help would be great! Thank you.
