This PTO-powered version „WK 700 Z Classic“ is an excellent machine with
inbuilt hydraulic system and PTO drive for firewood preparation directly in
the forest/wood by simply powering it off your tractor via a cardan shaft.
A rugged all-steel construction assures longest machine life at any
operative condition.
This machine is specially designed to work with a 700 mm blade approved
and manufactured to EN 847-1.
This model is PTO-powered by the tractor by means of cardan shaft.
When you switch the machine on make sure to check that the blade is
mounted to rotate in the proper direction before cutting any material. The
blade must rotate against the operator that is upward toward the operator.
Load the log in the carriage and
smoothly
push it to the blade.
If you working with twisted or crooked logs make sure to load
the log on the carriage, so that the bolged side of the log is
turned to the blade in order to avoid the log from tipping over
or jamming during cutting and consequent possible even major
damages to the blade.
Now fasten the grip on the log carriage and push to smoothly tilt it over to-
wards and through the blade.
NOTE
: avoid excessive pressure on the carriage through the blade while cut-
ting. Excessive hold-down pressure may slow the blade down and cause dan-
gerous jamming!
When feeding the log to the blade avoid all jerky, bumpy movements that could
lead to risky and dangerous situations. Timber in maximum length of 1.1 m must
lay on the carriage by the entire length with no projecting end. After the first log is
cut off the timber, let the carriage swing down to start-position (wide opened) be-
fore advancing the remaining timber to the blade and starting a new sawing cycle.
If you try to feed the stock forward and cut before the trough reaches back to start
position, you may run the risk of hitting the stock against the blade guard conse-
quently causing severe personal injuries and machine damages
for which the man-
ufacturer carries no liability.
On all PTO-powered models the tool (blade) keeps turning for a while before it co-
mes to a complete stop after the PTO-drive has been disconnected.
