SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
REMEMBER! SAFETY IS UP TO YOU!
The following are some safety tips that you should follow when operating the 1200 Feller
Buncher for the protection of the people who work around you and for your own protec-
tion.
BEFORE YOU START
Know your machine. Inspect it thoroughly. Keep it clean. Wear close fitting clothing and
protective items. Make sure protective guards are in place. Check height, weight and
width restrictions for your work area. Be sure you know about any hazards. Make sure
you agree with your signal person on hand signals.
STARTING UP
Make sure all controls are in proper position for starting. Check for warning tags. Start the
machine only from the operator’s cab and do not leave the cab while the engine is run-
ning. Warm the machine up gradually. Practice with the function controls. Report any
unusual noises or conditions for immediate repair. STOP ACCIDENTS BEFORE THEY
STOP YOU!
WHILE OPERATING
PAY ATTENTION! Know the working range of your machine. Know where any obstruc-
tions might be. Do not move the machine unnecessarily fast. Be sure everyone is in the
clear before moving any part of the machine. NEVER SWING OR POSITION ANY
ATTACHMENT OR LOAD OVER GROUND CREW OR TRUCK CAB. Never allow any-
one to ride on any attachment or load. Never attempt to operate the machine from any
position outside the operator’s cab. Never operate in a location where the machine or
load may contact electric power lines. DO NOT operate with right door slid open or any
other doors open. ALWAYS operate with seat belt fastened.
WHILE TRAVELLING
Make sure that no one is endangered before you make your move. Never get on or off
the machine while it is in motion. Lock the swing brake when you travel. Cross obstacles
at an angle and at low speed. Watch to see that your boom clears all obstacles.
WHILE OPERATING DISC FELLING HEAD
The operator must operate the disc felling head from inside the cab and he must remain
in the cab until the saw stops rotating completely. ALL PERSONNEL NOT IN THE CAB
MUST BE AT LEAST 100 METRES(300 FEET) AWAY AND NEVER CROSS IN FRONT
OF A SAW OPENING!! All observers should stand opposite to the side of the machine
where the chips are discharged.
BEFORE PERFORMING SERVICE
Place attachment on ground, shut off engine and remove keys from ignition. Attach a
“DO NOT OPERATE” tag in an obvious place in operator’s cab.

WHILE POSITIONING FELLING HEAD
CAUTION!
FELLING HEAD CAN CONTACT TRACKS AND OPERATOR’S CAB. USE CAUTION
WHEN WORKING IN CLOSE AND WHILE SWINGING.
OVERLOADING
Overloading is hazardous. Make certain you are within the safe load and work radius lim-
its of your machine for prevailing conditions. Uneven or sloping terrain will reduce the
load and working radius of your machine. The 1200 was developed to handle trees up to
22 inches in diameter. Trees larger than 22 inches in diameter must only be directionly
felled. Attempting to handle trees larger than 22 inches in diameter may result in:
machine rollover which may cause serious injury or death, damage or an increased rate
of wear that will not be covered by warranty.
Before leaving cab, stop saw blade, lower attachment to ground and stop engine.
NEVER approach the attachment until all components have come to a complete stop
and engine has been shut down.
BEFORE LEAVING CAB
Stop sawblade, lower attachment to ground and stop engine. NEVER approach the
attachment until all components have come to a complete stop and engine has been
shut down.
PURGE FAN
This machine is equipped with a fan that may unexpectedly purge debris from the radia-
tor. Flying debris is a hazard and can cause injury. Stay clear of the machine until engine
has stopped.
FIRE PREVENTION
Due to the operating conditions found in mechanized logging there are significant fire
hazards that can arise over time if the equipment is not kept clean and well maintained
on a continual basis. In order to minimize the fire hazards present on the machine it is
important to reduce or eliminate both potential sources of fuel for a fire and potential
sources of ignition. Sources of fuel can accumulate due to normal operation, service or
component failure. These include such materials as needles, leaves, bark, wood chips,
sawdust, hydraulic oil, grease and fuel. Sources of ignition include overheating engine
and hydraulic components, exhaust components, and sparks due to damage to the
electrical system.
The following precautions must be taken for the safe operation of the machine:
- Accumulation of needles, leaves, bark, wood chips, sawdust or other debris must be
removed daily.
- Hydraulic leaks, accumulations of grease, fuel or oil must be repaired and cleaned up
immediately.
Section OnePage 2b

MADILL 1200
- Electrical wires, battery cables, hydraulic hoses and fuel lines must be inspected daily
and replaced immediately if damaged or worn.
- The radiator and engine cooling system should be cleaned and serviced daily to
maintain moderate engine temperatures.
- Ensure a fire extinguisher and other required fire fighting equipment are on the machine
and properly maintained.
- When welding on the machine, ensure that the area to be welded has been thoroughly
cleaned of any flammable materials and that a fire extinguisher is within close reach.
- Refuel the machine only after the engine has been stopped and allowed to cool down.
For machines with an automatic fire suppression system the following
precautions are required to ensure maximum effectiveness:
- The house must be kept down with all access doors closed while the machine is
running except when required for service, maintenance and inspections.
- If a fire is detected before the system has discharged, activate the system manually.
DO NOT wait for the system to automatically activate.
REPLACEMENT OF LEXAN AND MARGUARD WINDOWS
It is important that damaged Lexan or Marguard windows be replaced with the equivalent
product. Substitution with an inferior product may greatly reduce the level of protection to
the operator and WCB requirements may not be met. For example, the impact strength
of Lexan is 200 times that of glass and 30 times that of acrylic.
PROTECT THE OPERATOR - DO NOT SUBSTITUTE AN INFERIOR PRODUCT!
LEXAN & MARGUARD WINDOWS - CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
When Lexan sheet is first installed, glazing compound and masking paper adhesive can
be easily removed by applying naphtha (VM&P) or kerosene with a soft cloth, followed
immediately with a thorough soap and water cleaning. DO NOT USE GASOLINE!
Adherence to regular and proper cleaning procedures is recommended to preserve
appearance.
WASHING TO MINIMIZE SCRATCHING
Wash LEXAN XL sheet and LEXAN THERMOCLEAR sheet with a mild soap or deter-
gent (e.g. JOY Dishwashing Liquid) and lukewarm water, using a clean sponge or a soft
cloth. Rinse well with clean water. Dry thoroughly with a chamois or moist cellulose
sponge to prevent water spots. Do not scrub or use brushes on these products; their
coating is UV-resistant, not mar-resistant. Fresh paint splashes, grease and smeared
glazing compounds can be removed easily before drying by rubbing lightly with a good
grade of VM&P naphtha or isopropyl alcohol. Afterward, a warm final wash should be
made, using a mild soap or detergent solution and ending with a thorough rinsing with
clean water.
Section One Page 2c

MADILL 1200
MINIMIZE HAIRLINE SCRATCHES
Scratches and minor abrasions can be minimized by using a mild automobile polish.
Three such products that tend to polish and fill scratches are Johnson Paste Wax, Novus
Plastic Polish No.1 & No.2, Novus Inc. Minneapolis, MN and Micor Glaze plastic polish
(M.G.M.10), Mirror Bright Polish Co., Pasadena, CA. It is suggested that a test be made
on a sample of LEXAN sheet with the product selected and that the polish manufac-
turer’s instructions be followed.
SOME IMPORTANT “DON’T’S”
- DO NOT use abrasive or highly alkaline cleaners on LEXAN sheet products.
- NEVER scrape LEXAN sheet products with squeegees, razor blades or other sharp
instruments.
- Benzene, gasoline, acetone or carbon tetrachloride should NEVER be used on LEXAN
sheet products.
- DO NOT clean LEXAN sheet products in hot sun or at elevated temperatures.
- DO NOT use butyl cellosolve on XL-1 or TC-2.
COMPATIBLE CLEANERS FOR LEXAN SHEET PRODUCTS
The following cleaning agents have been found compatible with LEXAN sheet, LEXAN
XL sheet and LEXAN THERMOCLEAR sheet. The manufacturer’s recommendations
and instructions should be followed.
- JOY - Top Job
- Freon T.F. - VM&P Grade Naphtha
- Palmolive Liquid - Windex with Ammonia D
MARGUARD SHEET CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Because of this material’s highly mar-and UV resistant coating, avoid the use of abrasive
cleaners and/or cleaning implements that may mar or gouge the coating.
Graffiti Removal for MARGUARD Sheet
- Butyl cellosolve works well for removal of paints, marking pen inks, lipstick, etc.
- Masking tape, adhesive tape or lint removal tools work well for lifting off old, weathered
paints.
- To remove labels, stickers, etc., the use of kerosene or VM&P naphtha is generally
effective. When the solvent will not penetrate sticker material, apply heat (hair dryer) to
soften the adhesive and promote removal. GASOLINE SHOULD NOT BE USED.
JOB SITE PRECAUTIONS
New construction and renovations frequently require that the glazing and surrounding
sash and wall finish can be cleaned of any excess mortar, paint,sealant, primers or other
construction compounds. Only recommended cleaners should be used to clean LEXAN
sheet. Contact with harsh solvents such as methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) or muriatic acid
can result in surface degradation and possible crazing of LEXAN sheet.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
POWER UNIT
The Madill 1200 is powered by a Isuzu 285 HP diesel engine. The engine is direct cou-
pled to a main pump set which provides hydraulic power for all machine functions.
UNDERCARRIAGE
The crawler type undercarriage features compact variable speed hydraulic drive motors
“Plugged In” to 3 stage planetary gearboxes. Track rollers and idlers are lifetime lubri-
cated. Shock loading is absorbed by pre-loaded idler recoil springs and track tension is
maintained by grease cylinder tensioners.
OPERATOR’S CAB
Positioning of the cab provides the operator with excellent visibility while steel plate con-
struction provides safety. Simple layout and hands on controls facilitate simultaneous
functions. Standard features include air conditioning and an AM/FM/CDPlayer. Batteries,
circuit breakers and relaysare conveniently locatedin a slide out tray in the bottom of the
cab.
MACHINE DECK
A clean and simple machine deck features twin frame rails with integrated underdecking.
The counterweight is at the rear under the deck. The fuel and hydraulic oil tanks are in
the center of the deck, providing a barrier between the engine and the hydraulic valves.
HOUSE
Two large swing out doors provide easy maintenance access. The hood is hydraulically
tilted via a hand pump. Large punched plate grills provide ventilation.
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
The machine is equipped with four pumps and two valve block assemblies.
Pump #1 (Main Pump) powers the track drive, swing drive, boom cylinder, stick cylinder
and head tilt cylinder through six hydraulically piloted valves located on the main valve
assembly attached to the front of the hydraulic tank.
Pump #2 (Grab Arm Pump) powers the sawhead grab arm cylinders, accumulator arm
cylinders and therotate through three electrically piloted valveslocated on the secondary
valve assembly attached to the mainframe web near the operator’s cab.
Pump #3 (Saw Disc Pump) powers the sawhead motor directly through an electrically
piloted saw on/off valve attached above the secondary valve assembly near the opera-
tor’s cab.
Pump #4 (Fan Drive Pump) is a closed loop pump that powers the hydraulically operated
fan through a fixed displacement motor. The fan speed is computer controlled with an
adjustable automatic purge cycle that provides reverse air flow for purging of debris build
up on the cooler package.

OPERATION
GENERAL NOTES ON OPERATION
When checking for leaks in the hydraulic system, use a piece of cardboard or wood. A
small stream of high pressure oil can penetrate the skin and cause serious injury. DO
NOT USE YOUR HAND OR FINGERS TO SEARCH FOR LEAKS. If you are struck by
pressurized hydraulic fluid, see a doctor at once.
When a machine is first delivered, it is important to go through a series of inspections
and checks before placing the machine in service. Each machine has been thoroughly
inspected. A comprehensive post-delivery inspection by the distributor will detect any
problems developed in transit, so they may be corrected before the machine reaches its
ultimate user.
Prior to removing the equipment from the carrier, all shortages and damage must be
noted on the shipping papers. Contact Madill Service Department if any questions should
arise.
Checking the positions of the shipping blocks supporting the machine can indicate what
type of damage may have occurred during shipping. All blocking should be tightly in
place and all cables should be properly tensioned. Loose cables and blocks mean the
machine has probably been jarred and moved around, and subjected to unusual
vibration. This could mean loose parts and bolts. Inspect the machine surface for
damage. Walk around the machine and perform a visual inspection, checking for oil
leaks.
Before the machine is run, the oil level in the engine should be checked to ensure proper
level. Also check the coolant level and concentration in the radiator. Hydraulic fluid in the
reservoir should be in the proper range pointed out on the sight glass; DO NOT OVER-
FILL THIS, room must be allowed for fluid expansion due to heat. Check the oil level in
all gearboxes, add if too low, drain if over filled. Consult the lubrication instructions for
correct service procedures. Lubricate all fittings to be sure they will accept grease.
Re-torque bolts if necessary.
READ THE PROCEDURE FOR MACHINE START-UP BEFORE RUNNING THE
ENGINE ON ASSEMBLED MACHINE.
Start and run the engine until it warms up. Cycle the various functions and examine the
machine for hydraulic oil leaks.
Normally the first hours of operation are the most crucial to the machine because this is
when the parts are breaking in. Frequent visual inspections to bolts should be performed
during this time.
TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS & PRECAUTIONS
1. Switch travel speed selector to low when travelling down grades or when loading/
unloading machine onto a trailer.
2. ** IMPORTANT** RE-TORQUE THE TRACK PAD BOLTS AFTER THEIR FIRST 40
HOURS OF OPERATION.
3. Keep the driving sprockets to the rear while travelling.

TRAVEL BRAKE FUNCTION
The multi-disc spring applied, hydraulically released travel brakes are automatically
released when any travel control is engaged. Loss of system pressure will cause the
brake to apply automatically.
ROLLERS & RAILS
Rollers and rails, and related component life can be increased by the following
preventative maintenance steps:
1. Make daily visual inspections of your equipment.. Check for loose bolts, leaking seals
and abnormal wear.
2. Consider a program of switching rollers to equalize wear. It takes time, but the
expense saved in equalizing wear usually justifies the effort.
The front and rear rollers take approximately 80% of the wear on track machines. The
wear drops off to a minimum on center rollers. We suggest a good regular inspection of
the rollers, by raising each track off the ground with the boom.
AIR CONDITIONING UNIT
The air conditioning unit in your Madill equipment must be cycled on a bi-weekly basis to
ensure that the compressor seals remain lubricated.
Refrigerant may leak from the compressor if the unit is not run regularly, particularly over
the fall and winter months. The air conditioner warranty does not cover claims for
refigerant loss that are compressor seal related if the unit has not been run on a regular
basis.
INSPECTION
A proper pre-start visual inspection each day of operation will help spot problems or
potential problems in their early stages and save on expensive repairs and down time.
This daily inspection should be done in conjunction with any and all necessary daily
lubrication requirements. All lubrication procedures along with their locations are
explained in the lubrication section of this manual.
Open the doors of the machine and look over the wiring, hoses, clamps and piping.
Check the fluid levels of the engine and radiator. Check the oil level in the hydraulic oil
reservoir. Inspect the side frames for oil on the rollers and the drive gear boxes. The reg-
ular inspection of this machine is the first step in a good maintenance program. Following
our recommended procedures will assure you efficient and profitable operation.
