During feeding both trapdoors lift and remain in place until the end of the sawing phase or until the
green RESET button is pushed.
During the feeding phase the cutting length limiter moves in the correct position.
6.3. SAWING
The chainsaw operates only during the sawing cycle, otherwise it is at standstill in the home position.
Start the sawing by pulling the main control handle backwards. Sawing is carried out in two phases.
First, fix the log with the log holder and engage the cutting chain activation clutch. This is followed by
the saw bar operation. During the sawing operation the handle must be in the “backward” position;
otherwise, the saw bar will return to the home position.
There are two inductive switches located on the saw bar operation cylinder. Switch 1 (cylinder
retracted) prevents the operation of the in-feed conveyor belt, when the saw bar is not in the home
position. Switch 2 opens the trapdoors and returns the saw bar to the home position.
The force used by the cylinder to push the saw bar is factory set and must not be modified. The saw
bar operation speed is also set to a fixed value. The sawing speed varies depending on the sharpness
of the cutting chain and type or diameter of wood.
Prior to sawing always check the sharpness and tension of the chain and the level of the chain
lubrication oil!
The wood must remain in the fixed position during sawing. Take extra care when cutting the last
piece – both clamps must be well fixed. The movement of the wood during sawing can damage the
saw bar and the cutting chain!
The trapdoors provide a smoother transfer of the cut pieces into the splitting chute and are in the
horizontal position throughout the sawing operation. The trapdoors open when the saw bar reaches
the bottom position. The trapdoors can also be opened manually at any time by pressing the green
button on the control handle. This is particularly useful when cutting warped wood, which leans on
the trapdoors during sawing and pushes the saw bar from the side thus subsequently interfering the
sawing operation.
