Operation of the Joystick valve
Figure 24
Cutting
Pull the joystick D in direction 3, Fig. 25.
The cylinder 8 (fig. 24) swings the multi-purpose shaft 4 (Fig. 24) to the rear, making also the
launch trigger 5 swing to the rear.
The valve 9 starts the saw-motor which cuts off the log.
Splitting
Push the joystick D in direction 4, Fig. 25.
The launch rod 5 on the multi-purpose shaft presses the launch lever 7, and the spring-loaded
launch rod 3 activates the splitting valve 2.
The splitting cylinder executes one stroke and then returns automatically to its initial position.
The chain saw will stop immediately, if the lever is moved away from position 3.
Feeding the log
Push the joystick to the right, in direction 1, to start the in-feed conveyor.
The in-feed conveyor can be reversed by pushing the joystick in direction 2.
NOTE! The operations can be executed simultaneously so that, while one log is being split,
another one can be fed against the log-stop, enabling the crosscut operation to be started
immediately. Malfunctions and their remedies
