1. Start and operate the engine according to the provided engine manual.
2. Replacement engine operating instructions can be obtained from the engine manufacturer.
Equipment Operation
1. Wear heavy-duty work gloves, ANSI-approved goggles behind a full face shield, steel-toed work boots, and a
dust mask.
2. Operate only with the assistance of another qualified person.
3. Fill the Water Tank with clean water.
4. The maximum log diameter that can be cut is 66cm
(26
”)
on the RR5026A or 74cm
(
29”)
on the
RR5029B. The maximum board width that can be cut is 56cm
(22
1/8”)
on the RR5026A and 62cm
(24 ½”)
on the RR5029B. The log must be at least 112cm
(3
’ 8”)
long and must rest on at least two
Supports (8, 12) to prevent instability.
5. Cut branches off the log to be processed before sawing.
6. Do not cut logs containing foreign objects (nails, metal, etc.). This will cause Blade damage and could cause
serious injury.
7. Choose the Short Log Supports (9) or the Long Log Supports (10) according to the log diameter.
8. Place the log to be cut on the Supports. See Figure T. Brace the log against the Log Supports (9 or 10) to
prevent movement during sawing. The log should be positioned so that the force of cutting holds it against the
supports. Log supports (9 or 10) need to be lower than the thickness of the board being cut to avoid blade
damage.

9. Clamp the log in place against the Log Supports (9 or 10) using the Log Clamp Assembly (20) in the location
shown in Figure T.
10. Tighten all Bolts and T-Handles on the Log Clamp Assembly (20) and the Log Supports (10 or 9). Verify that
they are securely in place before proceeding.
NOTE: Make sure the Log Clamp Assembly (20) does NOT interfere with the Saw Blade when sawing. The
Log Clamp Assembly (20) should be lower than the Saw Blade at all times.
