Unattended Harvester Head
When leaving the harvester head unattended it is advisable
to leave it in the upright position (tilt up), pointing away
from the operator’s cab with the boom stretched right out.
Do not lay harvester head and link mechanism down in
such a manner that the rotator comes in contact with the
arm, as serious damage may occur to the rotator motor.
Delimbing Multi-Leaders
When handling multi leaders delimb up to the leader,
and if possible open the delimb knives and feed through,
which will allow the arms to be closed, on one of the
leaders after passing the fork. This way require several
meters before closed at which point the harvester head
can be reversed to the point where one leader can be cut
off. Caution when cutting leaders. Make sure that the saw
bar is not pinched between leaders.
This leader can now be processed.
If the harvester head will not pass over the fork, drop the
log and reposition further down the log and continue the
process.
