HM126 Operator’s Manual
EQUIPMENT OPERATION
1.
Wear heavy-duty work gloves, ANSI-approved goggles behind a
full face shield, steel-toed work boots, hearing protection, and a
dust mask.
2.
Operate only with assistance.
3.
Cut-off branches from the lumber to be processed.
4.
Place the lumber to be cut on the track supports.
5.
Clamp the lumber firmly in place using the included log clamps and supports.
6.
Fill the lubrication tank with clean water. Add no more than a teaspoon of liquid dish soap
per full tank. The soap helps keep the blade clean(er) when excess pitch builds up.
7.
Start and operate the engine according to the provided engine manual.
8.
Depress the throttle to bring the blade up to speed—the throttle should be fully depressed
while the saw is under load.
9.
Roll the head assembly slowly along the track and against the lumber to make the cut.
10. Trim off the rounded sides of the log.
11. When the log is squared-off, boards or posts can be cut to standard or custom
specifications.
12. To prevent accidents, turn off the engine and disconnect its spark plug wire after use. Wait
for the engine to cool, clean external parts with a clean cloth, then store the equipment out
of children’s reach.
