NUMBERING
To keep rails in the proper order for
assembly, number
the bottoms of each,
from left to right.
That way you’ll
always know what
rail goes where, and
what end is top and bottom.
WOOD preparation & STORAGE
Peel the bark off of the logs to speed up drying time.
Leaving the bark on attracts beetles, ants, and other bugs.
Do not store logs directly on the ground. Store in an open
shed or canopy. If you must use a tarp, leave the sides
open so to allow for adequate airflow.
RUST PREVENTION
The shaft and blades are made from steel and will eventually
rust if not protected. The arms are aluminum.
To keep the steel parts of the E-Z Log Tenon
Cutters and E-Z Log Sink from rusting, remove
any tree sap and wood particles from your cutter
using Pine Sol or any good cleaner and allow to
dry. Apply a light coat of oil, WD-40, or any type
of rust preventative to all of the steel parts,
including the blade. For long term storage, you
might even want to remove the set screws and
put a dab of oil on those as well.
