Logosol B1651 - Cleaning the Band Sawmill

CLEANING THE BAND SAWMILL
Clean the band sawmill after each work shift. Remove sawdust and wood debris inside the band wheel
guards and on and around the rails. Wipe painted surfaces and plastic parts with silicone spray (ref. no:
9999-000-5110). Lubricate moving parts with Super Flo (ref. no: 9999-000-5115).
WATER TANK
If the temperature falls below freezing, you should empty the water tank and tubes. At temperatures below
0°C, you can use windshield washer uid.
Never use glycol or ammable liquids as a coolant.
HORIZONTAL ALIGNMENT OF THE BAND BLADE
Before each work shift, check that the blade is parallel with the log bed.
ENGINE
Check the oil level in the engine before each work shift.
Follow the maintenance schedule in the user manual for the engine.
SAWHEAD LIFTING CHAINS
Inspect the sawhead lifting chains for any wear or damages.
Replace with new chains if necessary.
INSPECTION OF SAFETY FEATURES
Before each work shift, inspect the working order of following safety features:
Note! The push handle is not applicable for B1651.
• Check that the throttle handle returns to its neutral position when released, so that the engine goes down
to idle. If not, lubricate the throttle wire with Super Flo (SKU: 9999-000-5115).
• Check that the interlock safety switch in the hinge of the band wheel guards works.
• Check by opening the band wheel guards while the engine is turned off and listen for the safety switch
disconnecting.
LEVEL ALIGNMENT OF THE RAILS
Before each work shift, check that the rails are level, especially in winter when frost can heave the ground.
BAND WHEEL BELTS
Regularly inspect the condition of the band wheel drive belt and the band wheel belt. Replace worn and
damaged parts.
Regularly check the tension of the drive belt and adjust if necessary.
BLADE GUIDES
Regularly inspect the condition of the blade guides and check that the distance between the ange on the
blade guide and the blade is within 3-5 mm. Replace worn or damaged blade guides.
BAND WHEEL GUARDS
Every hour of operation, or when you change band blade, clean the inside of the band wheel guards and the
blade from build-up of sawdust and wood debris.
BAND BLADES
Replace the blade with a new, sharp blade after approximately every two hours of effective sawing.
