STEP 1:
Adjust the height of the
telescopic uprights to suit
the quantity of logs to be
sawn. To adjust an upright,
unscrew the thumbscrew,
move the upright to the
required height and tighten
the thumbscrew.
STEP 2:
Load the logs into the
U-Supports so that the
overhangs outside of the
U-Supports are roughly
equal.
Ensure you do not exceed
the maximum total weight of
logs given on page 2.

Operation
STEP 4:
Begin cutting the logs by
sawing the overhanging
ends to the required
length of log then saw
down between the two
U-Supports.
If the overhanging ends
need to be cut into multiple
logs then cut alternately
from each end in order to
keep the weight over the
centre of the stand.
STEP 3:
Take a log securing chain (1)
and place one loop over each
of the telescopic uprights of
a U-Support. Note that the
flat part of the loop to which
the chain is attached should
be angled downwards.
Allow the chain to slide
down the uprights so it rests
on the logs.
Repeat for the second
securing chain on the other
U-Support.

STEP 5:
For easy storage turn the
U-Supports so they are
roughly parallel to the side
of the wood base and lower
the telescopic uprights.
The feet can also be turned
roughly parallel to the base,
note it may be necessary to
loosen the top bolt in each
bolt tube to do this. En-
sure that when the feet are
turned back to the working
position the bolts are re-
tightened.

Safety
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Before using the log stand always check that all nuts and
bolts are secure and that the log stand is not damaged.
Use the log stand on firm level ground only. Do not use on
sloping or uneven ground.
After securing the logs in the log stand, check the stability
and balance before starting to cut. The log stand must not be
able to tilt.
Read and observe the operating instructions of the chainsaw
you are using and wear all recommended safety gear. Always
wear safety shoes or boots in case a log is accidentally
dropped on your feet.
Only cut with the bottom of the chainsaw bar as the log
may otherwise shift away from the rotating chain, become
unstable and increase the risk of personal injury.
Clear and stack the sawn logs away from the log stand to
keep the work area clear of obstructions and safety hazards.
IMPORTANT: Check that the logs are secure and the log
stand is stable before beginning to cut.
WARNING: Do not exceed the specified maximum total log
weight as given on page 2 of this manual.
