PK1500 STACK CUTTER
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
During operation:
Do not start cutting until the steps in the section
”Preparations” on page 26 have been carried out.
Never start the stack cutter if the guide bar is not in
its top position and covered by the xed bar guard.
Never stick hands or tools under any guards or in the
cutting path of the guide bar.
Always stand with your face shielded by the
protective screen. When end trimming, the chain
can throw blocks of wood in the operator’s
direction.
On the same axis as the guide bar, with a 20
degree deviation to either side, the safe distance
“in front of” and “behind” the machine is 8
m (see the illustration). This also applies to the
operator. Besides the operator (shown as “Op” in
the illustration), no one may stand within 4 metres
of the machine’s sides while it is operating. The
illustration below shows a bird’s-eye view of the
machine. During operation, the operator must stay
within the indicated area behind the control panel.
The operator must not stretch his/her arms or legs
outside this area.
Risk of chain throw-off if the chain breaks.
Respect the safe distance!
Before releasing the winch safety catch, take a
rm grip of the winding crank. Except when the saw
unit is to be lowered, the safety catch should always
be on.
Risk of burns when changing the chain.
Cutting equipment can be hot after use.
A chip extractor (min. 700 m3/h) must be
connected during operation. Be aware of the risk
of breathing in dust. Saw outdoors or ensure good
ventilation.
Even people outside the safe distance may still
require ear protectors. Outdoors, the safe distance
for harmful noise is around 15 m. Ensure that no
one without ear protectors is exposed to sounds
above 70 dB(A).
Use non-toxic, vegetable, saw chain oil to
lubricate the chain.
Risk of unintentional start-up and electric
shock.
In this manual, the instruction ”cut the power”
always means unplug the power cable at the
control panel, hang it up so that neither the plug
nor the cable can be damaged, and ensure that
the chain has stopped.
Cut the power
- Before touching the chain in any way.
- Before attempting to free a jammed chain.
- Before servicing or other intervention involving the
guide bar, belt guard or electrical system.
- Before moving the machine.
- If the machine is to be left unattended. Also ensure
that no unauthorised person can start the machine.
- After tting a chain, ensure that it runs freely
before plugging the cable into the control panel.
Other safety instructions:
The machine must not be modied or added to. Use
only parts supplied by LOGOSOL. After servicing, the
machine must be restored to its original condition.
Risk of being hit by the winding crank.
Risk of the saw unit being lowered
unintentionally.

rmly on at ground and that it is properly
strapped.
Max.
0.2m/sec.
Max.
0.2m/sec.
Thanks to its wheels, the STACK CUTTER can be
easily moved when required. Whenever possible, the
STACK CUTTER should be moved in the longitudinal
direction of the guide bar (i.e. not sideways). If
the STACK CUTTER is being moved more than a
short distance, the motor unit must be lowered to
its bottom position. The risk of tipping increases
considerably if the STACK CUTTER is moved sideways
(right/left). The oor over which the STACK CUTTER
is moved must be smooth and free from gravel and
anything else that can make the surface uneven.
Cut the power before moving the Stack Cutter.
Risk of tipping! The Stack Cutter may only be
moved on its wheels when the surface is smooth
and even.
Risk of tipping! The maximum permitted speed
when moving sideways is 0.2 m/sec. (1 m in 5 sec.).
When moving the machine, pay particular
attention to ensuring that the control panel does not
hit any obstacles.
When the machine is being moved, he winding
crank safety catch must always be on..
The Stack Cutter can easily be moved using a crane,
tractor or other equipment suitable for this purpose.
Use approved lifting straps/lifting chains. The Stack
Cutter has a lifting eye at the top of the rear leg. On
the motor-side, thread the straps or chains between
the handle bars and the guide rail.
SETTING UP
Read the entire manual and, before using the
machine, familiarize yourself with all the machine
functions and settings.
Inspect the Stack Cutter immediately on
reception. Any transport damage must be notied
immediately to the freight company.
Position the Stack Cutter on an even surface. Using
the crank on the adjustable wheel, adjust the
machine so that it is level and stable.
Connect the chip extractor hose and secure it with
hose clamps both at the the machine end and at the
extractor end.
Ensure that the lighting is rst-class. Fit a powerful
light above the machine.
Check that all bolts are rmly tightened. Check that
the saw chain runs freely and unobstructed on the
guide bar. Check that the chain has been tensioned
(see p.31).

Place the motor bracket (raised by blocks) next to the
front leg. Fit the guide rail to the motor bracket and
then screw it to the front leg. Note that the holes in the
guide rail (four holes in a row) should point down. Wait
with the bolt joints for these holes, as these holes are to
be used for attaching the left leg.
Note that the top plate has to be tted such that it does
not extend over the edge of the rear leg, and that the
holes for the line pulley should be tted to the left.
