Operation
Milling Slabs
To cut your wood into slabs, it is important that the wood is always resting on the
crossbeams and secured using all four gripping plates. We advise to use the two
vertical gripping plates in the crossbeam slots and the PTS with the other two grip-
ping plates to secure both ends from the dual rails.
• Set the guide bars to a height that can take the top of the bark off the full log,
making sure that the width of the second slab (beneath the cut) is as desired.
• Perform the first cut following the cutting instructions.
• Once the cut has been completed, the guide bars need to be dropped to the
next position. The distance the guide bars are moved down will equate to the
thickness of the next slab. Therefore, you can do this with the step gauge or
measure it yourself for your own desired thickness.
• Then perform the next cut to complete the slab. The last two steps can be re-
peated until the log has been completely cut down.
Remember: Slabbing takes a long time for each cut due to the volume of wood be-
ing cut. Therefore, you must be patient with the cutting process and ensure you do
not force the chainsaw too hard into the wood. This can cause the bar to bow, get
stuck in the wood and overwork the chainsaw.
