LOGOSOL F2+
Safety distances
Respect the safety distances. The safety
distance is 8 m for the operator and 15 m
for persons other than the operator. The
illustration below shows the sawmill
from above. The operator is to remain
within the area marked with a dashed
line (- - - -) when the saw is in operation.
The operator is not to stretch over
the guide rail when the sawmill is in
operation.

When using a petrol-driven chainsaw
Fire risk. Turn off the engine before
refuelling. Petrol is extremely ammable.
Burn injuries can be life threatening.
If you spill fuel, immediately clean the
components the fuel has come in contact
with. Clothes on which fuel has been
spilt are to be changed immediately.
• Tighten the tank cap as tightly as possible, to
minimise the risk that the cap vibrates loose
during sawing.
• Never saw with the chainsaw throttle locked.
Always operate the throttle manually when
sawing.
Increased throw-out risk! Never use a
chain sharpened for rip sawing when
cross cutting.
Before each work period
• Check the lifting line’s condition in particular.
Change immediately if any sign of wear is
detected. Check that bolted joints and locks
in the log bed lift and lock system are fully
tightened and that all the moving parts of the
sawmill move freely and smoothly.
• Check that the sawmill is completely level and
that it is securely xed to the underlying surface.
• Check that the cutting equipment is correctly
assembled. Risk of chain breaks!
• Check that saw unit is pushed fully into
position on the guide rail. Throw-out risk on
start up!
The sawmill is not to be in any other
position than level when in operation.
Risk of overturning! The Logosol F2+
should be fastened directly to the
underlying surface or to a bedding of
planks which increases the area of the
load bearing surface.
During operation
• Hold the crank rmly whenever raising or
lowering a log. If released, the crank may spin
back and hit your hand hard.
Do not place your hand on the inside of
the long leg when raising or lowering
the log. There is a risk that your hand can
be trapped if the lifting line snaps or the
crank spins.
• Do not saw short logs that extend less than
0.2 m beyond each log bed. A shorter log can
fall off when the log beds are raised!
• The maximum permitted load for the sawmill
is 1200 kg.
Always stand to the right of the saw unit
when it is in operation. A chains that
breaks can be thrown out through the
sawdust outlet.
• Keep the worksite free of tools, pieces of wood,
sawdust and other items you can trip on.
Turn off the chainsaw after each cut. Never
leave the Logosol F2+ unattended such
that unauthorized persons can start it.
If any kind of malfunction occurs, stop
sawing immediately and turn off the
chainsaw until the problem has been
resolved. Always keep this in mind. Most
accidents with dangerous machines, both
the Logosol F2+ and other machines,
happen when something goes wrong and
the operator attempts to x it while the
machine is still running. A stop seldom
shows up on the nished product.
