13. With both hands on the push handle, gently push the saw carriage forward until the blade begins to cut
into the log.
When the band blade is completely inside the log, you can increase the feed rate.
Adjust the feed rate so the cut becomes straight with a clean nish. Lower the feed rate when cutting
through knots in the wood and choose a lower speed when cutting large or hard logs.
Also lower the feed rate when you come to the end of the log.
14. As soon as you have sawn through the log, release the throttle handle and let the blade come to a
complete stop.
TIP
If you release the throttle just before the blade comes out through the log end, the blade
will stop faster.
15. Remove the slab from the log.
16. Raise the sawhead slightly and, by hand, roll the saw carriage back to the starting position.
17. Set the height for the next cut. Use the crank and the depth of cut scales.
