re than one person approach and work on the machine at the same
time.

rests entirely and safely on the log carriage.

rer as “misuse”. In case of misuse the manufacturer will not be liable
for any injuries or damages and the operator will be held entirely re-
sponsible.

nance/repair instructions in order to avoid happening of any injury or
dangerous condition.
