Installing the adjustment lever for the splitting wedge, Fig. 14B
In order to prevent transport damage, the adjustment lever for the splitting wedge has
been removed.
1. Put the adjustment lever in place.
2. Look up the correct installation procedure for the friction plate and spring washers
on the sticker.
3. Wrench the crown nut to suitable tightness and put the splint in place.
4. The tightness of the nut is correct when the adjustment lever is easy to operate but
the splitting wedge stays well in its upper position.

USE OF THE FIREWOOD PROCESSOR, CROSSCUT OPERATION
NOTE !
The machine is intended for operation by one person only. Never leave
the machine, which is easy to start, unattended.
6.1
Operating the crosscut saw, before the operation
Cleanse the new saw-blade of any protective grease, because a greasy blade
accumulates resin easily, making it heat up. The blade then loses its tension, and starts
to jerk.
6.2
During the operation
Exercise caution, always keep your hands away from the saw-blade.
Do not cut slender logs more than one at a time, because if many logs are being cut at
the same time, some of them may twist the blade strongly, causing it to heat up and
lose its tension.
Never stop the rotation of the blade by pressing wood against it.
During the crosscut operation, make sure that at the cutting point the log always leans
against the support roller and the infeed roller.
Keep the log-pusher handle pushed down during the sawing to keep the log reliably in
position on the deck. This is important with slender logs and, generally, when the last
piece is being cut and the log is short and lightweight.
Cut very crooked trees where they bend. Doing so makes the crosscut operation
significantly easier.
