CUTTING AND SPLITTING OF WOOD
• Walk around and study the machine to familiarize yourself with its features before you
start.
• Press the engine start button. Wait a few minutes until the oil has gone up to working
temperature. Run the machine several times without placing any wood and check all the
features (feeding, cutting, splitting logs) before the actual work begins to get used to the
controls. Set the right speed on the chainsaw. Make sure no one has hands or arms inside
the machine.
• Place a straight, delimed log on the conveyor and point it at the chainsaw .
• Set the length to the desired length.
• Check the chain oil during operation and at regular intervals and rell if necessary.
• Start the splitting by bringing it forward. The pressure plate pushes the rewood against
the splitting wedge. CAUTION! Be careful when splitting of hardwood, knotty and / or
crusty wood. Some types of wood can crack or y o, which may result in injury.
• If the wood gets stuck in the cleaver: Retract pressure plate to the starting position, open
the protective cover, ensure that the machine is turned o. Warning of crushing! Make
sure the pressure plate is in its original position and has stopped moving before doing
anything to the machine. Never put your hand or other body part between the ramming
plate and the knife, instead use suitable tools such as shives or pry bar to remove the
jammed wood. If you need to turn o the wood use appropriate tools such as a club,
never use your hands

PREPARE THE DISCHARGE CONVEYOR
Crank the conveyor using the winch
Lift the upper part of the conveyor and gently lay it down on the ground.When raising the car-
rier to the full-length crank up to the desired height and angle. It is important that the angle
of the conveyor belt is set so that the wood goes up and does not fall back into the machine.


After cranking the carrier lock the two
sections with the lock on the underside
of the conveyor.
Preparing the support legs: Remove the
pin that holds the support leg
Lower the support leg.
Attach the support leg in the tracks of the
machine’s frame. Marked on the image.
Ensure that the leg is rmly xed to sup-
port the feed belt. Loosen the bolt and
open the door to access the terminal box.


Setting Conveyor
The selected bolts are tightened to ten-
sion the belt. To adjust the tension of
the conveyor belt tighten and/or re-
lease bolts. If the belt tends to pull to the
left, the left bolt should be tightened.
Tensioning the chain
Release the two bolts holding the protec-
tive guard and the chainsaw bar. Tension
the chain by tightening the index bolt,
then tighten the two bolts holding the
protective guard and the chainsaw bar.
The chain is tensioned correctly when it
can be pulled upwards a few millimeters.
1. Losen the bolts
REPLACING CHAINSAW/CHAINSAW BAR
2. Unhook the chainsaw
bar and remove the
chainsaw
3.Install a new chainsaw
bar / chain, then t the
bolts. Do not tighten the
bolts completely until
the chain is properly ten-
sioned


Change the start time
To change the start time (current limiter)
turn the knob to the desired number of
seconds. Suggestion about two to ve sec-
onds.
Start and Stop:
To start the machine, press the green but-
ton. To stop the machine push the red but-
ton, this is also the emergency stop.
Setting
It is important to set the lifting and lower-
ing speed of the chainsaw before you start
cutting rewood. Run the machine a num-
ber of times without placing any wood to
get the right speed of the bar. Start with
a low speed and increase a bit afterwards,
check that the chainsaw cut easily through
the wood. If the speed is too high, when
the chainsaw cuts the wood it can get
jammed which can lead to unnecessary
wear and damage to the machine!
Chain oil
Open the tap of the chain oil tank before
starting. Turn o the tap when not in use
to prevent chain oil leakage.
