chute lock arm and placing the hitch pins in the appropriate
hole position.

move freely and not hinder the log.
13.
Finally, adjust the splitter chute to the required height, crank
the bracing jacks so they are firmly on the ground, but
ensure the front lip of the lead in chute is on the ground (to
avoid catching on logs). If required, adjust the 3-point hitch
so the lead in chute is level with the ground and the bracing
jacks have a firm grip.

Move the wagon, trailer, or conveyor into position under the
discharge chute.
