Preparation of the transporter.
The transporter is prepared for operation by
1. Releasing the strap fixing point and loosening the strap at the points outlined in the
illustration.
2. The transporter is put in place by releasing the winch and the wire which holds it in place
– the transporter will fold out until it is level with the ground.
3. Afterwards, the transporter is folded out in its full length in the joint E.
4. The transporter is elevated to the required height by means of the winch.
Preparation of the feeding conveyor
The feeding conveyor is folded in place by releasing the locking pin at letter G which locks it.
The belt is tensioned by adjusting the screws at letter H. The belt is sufficiently tensioned if it
feeds in the wood without friction. Too hard tensioning increases the wear of the belt and
reduces the service life considerably.
An indication of what is suitable tensioning is when the belt in the middle of the feeding table,
allows for 30-40mm – Re. Illustration 4, letter I.
