Mounting the branch guides under the saw blades and adjusting the black plastic
rejecter
Dismount the 2 bolts and place the branch guide under each saw blade and tighten the bolts by hand.
Adjust the branch guides and the "plastic rejecter" as close to the blade as possible without touching. It is
important that the branch guide is as close as possible to the cutting side of the saw blade (see photo). Tighten all
bolts.
Control: Turn the saw blades by hand; they must be able to rotate 360 degrees freely, without touching anything.
Careful testing 15-minute test operation without sawing
Before starting, ensure that everything is tightened, that the safeguards of the saw blades
are dismantled and that the saw blades can rotate freely 360 degrees, without touching
anything.
There must be no humans or animals in the vicinity of the saw blades,
especially in the longitudinal direction of the rotation of the blades in
front or behind the saw.
•Start the tractor, let it run with low rpm of the engine
•Check the angle cylinder. Move the saw from full horizontal position to the full vertical
position at least 3 times to bleed the tilt cylinder
•Start the hydraulics for the saw and let the saw operate at a relatively low pace.
•Allow the saw to operate for a while to heat up the oil, depending on the ambient
temperature, 5-10 minutes
•When the oil is warm enough for operation, increase the rpm to ensure that the
tractor supplies at least the needed amount of oil per minute to the HXF (25-50 l/min).
Then the saw blades are operating at max rpm (3200-4000 rpm); see the user
manual.
