4.1 Safety rules about saw blade
The unit is strictly designed for use with 600 or 700 mm (outer diame-
ter) blades.
The blade (Cr) is capable to withstand a maximum number of revoluti-
ons of 3000 rev. per minute.
Strictly use blades as per EN Standard 847-1.
Do not ever use worn out blades in need of sharpening.
Make sure that the blade shows good conditions, no damages, no
cracks, no buckling and no missing/broken teeth/bits.
Hard metal blades require special care and handling. Make sure that the
blade bits do not ever hit against hard surfaces (for example concrete floors),
which might cause invisible bits damage. Hard metal blades must be sui-
table to operate at a maximum speed of 2700 revolutions per minute.
4.2 Mandatory application field
These log-cutting saws are strictly designed for cutting firewood chunks
loaded on the special log carriage. All other applications are forbidden
and considered as “misuse”.
The manufacturer is not liable for any damage or injury resulting from
misuse! The machine is available in two versions SPESSART 602(603)
and SPESSART 701 respectively capable to handle wood stocks in diame-
ter of 8 up to approximately 19.5 cm (24 cm). The larger 701 model is
capable to handle logs up to a max diameter of 27cm in two cuts (turn
the log around after first cut). Shrubs and tiny branches bundles must be
loaded on the carriage and securely hold on both sides of the blade.
The machine is strictly conceived for ONE-MAN OPERATION ONLY.
Lack of compliance with these instructions may lead to
dangerous risks and situations and
in which case the manufacturer will not be responsible for
customers’ claims or resulting damages and/or injuries.
