3.4 Training
Each operator must be trained in the proper set-up and
operating procedures prior to being allowed to operate
the machine.
1. Review control location, function and movement
directions.
2. Move the unit to a large open area to allow the
operator to become familiar with control function
and machine response.
3. When a new operator is familiar and comfortable
with the machine, they can proceed with the
work. Do not allow untrained operators to use the
machine. They can endanger themselves and
others or damage property and the machine.
3.5 Job Site Familiarization
It is the responsibility of the operator to be thoroughly
familiar with the work site prior to starting. Prevent
the chance or possibility of problems or accidents by
not being in the situation to start with. Some items the
operators should check include but are not limited to:
1. Close or cramped work space. Be sure there is
sufficient space and clearance for the machine to
winch-in the log during operation.
2. Organize the working area to minimize the
winching and wood removal distances. The shorter
the distances, the faster the work will be finished.
3. Use care when pulling logs from a pile for splitting
as they can roll when attaching the rope or
winching toward the splitter.
4. Position the machine so prevailing winds blow
engine exhaust fumes away from operator's
station.
3.6 Equipment Condition
1. Check the general condition of the Wood
Processor. Ensure that all nuts and bolts are
secure and that a moveable parts are secured and
in their proper place.
2.
Always inspect the rope as it is pulled out of the
winch. Do not use the machine if the rope is cut,
frayed, worn or knotted. Any problem can result
in early failure and create an unsafe operating
condition. Replace damaged rope before resuming
work.
3. Inspect hydraulic hoses and connections, ensure
they are not damaged and or leaking.
3.7 Machine Components
The Wallenstein Wood Processor consists of a winch
mounted in a frame to winch logs into the log lead in
chute and then position the log on the log loader chute,
up to the log length guide. The hydraulic winch control
lever engages the winch motor to wind or unwind
the rope. The winch control lever is spring-loaded
and will return to its NEUTRAL position when the
lever is released. The winch gear lever on the winch
engages and disengages the gear on the winch drum.
Disengaging the drum allows it to "freewheel" so the
rope is easily pulled out.
The operator uses the saw guide to safely align the
chain saw to cut the log to the desired length. When
the log is cut, it rolls onto the splitting cradle.
Engaging the hydraulic splitter levers causes the
hydraulic cylinder to push the log through the 4–way
wedge.
The frame is designed to mount to a tractor 3-Point Hitch.
Power to the machine can be provided by the tractor
hydraulic system or the optional PTO-powered hydraulic
Power Pack.
