USE
WARNING! Cutting tools: Always stand
behind the saw carriage and keep both hands
on the handles when operating the machine.
Never stand in front of the saw carriage or
bandsaw blade. Never pull the saw carriage
through a kerf.
WARNING! Risk of entrapment and rotating
parts: Even slight pressure on the saw head
release mechanism can cause the saw head to
drop in an uncontrolled manner and the crank
to start rotating at speed, which may result in
injury.
WARNING! Never modify this machine
so that it no longer conforms to the original
configuration. Do not use the machine if it
has been modified. Never use any accessories
apart from those that are recommended
in this user manual.
WARNING! A broken bandsaw blade can
eject bandsaw blade fragments at high speed
via the chip ejector.
Make sure there is no one on the chip ejection
side of the band sawmill while it is working.
The risk of bandsaw blade breakage increases
if it has not been properly fitted or maintained.
The bandsaw blades and plastic sawmill parts
are resistant to temperatures down to -25 °C.
Do not use the band sawmill in temperatures
below -25 °C.
Make sure that the machine has been properly
assembled and maintained in line with the
enclosed assembly instructions as well as these
instructions.
Never work alone. Always make sure there
is another adult within earshot in case you
need to call for help.
Do not stand between the log pile and the
band sawmill. Always stand to the side of the
log pile when handling the logs. Never stand
in any location where a log may fall on you.
WARNING! Risk of flying fragments from
dirty logs.
Always inspect the logs so that there are no
objects wedged in the bark before sawing.
Load and turn logs carefully. The sawmill has
a recommended maximum log weight of 1500
kg, but even smaller logs can damage the
sawmill if handled incorrectly.
Hazard area:
The minimum safe distance around the band
sawmill is shown in Figure 1: see next page. Note
that the safe distance on the left side of the
band sawmill is 15 metres, as there is a risk of
saw blade parts being ejected through the chip
ejector if the the saw blade breaks. The extent
of the hazard area on the other sides is 5 m.
[Figure 1]
WARNING! Keep hands, arms, legs and other
body parts well away from the bandsaw blade,
cables and other moving parts.
WARNING! Risk of impact from the saw
carriage.
Always use the parking lock when working
with the saw carriage.
WARNING! Risk of tripping on rail and
crossbars.
Never take a short cut over the rail. Suspend
electrical cables so that they are not damaged
and do not present a trip hazard.
WARNING! Never run the combustion engine
in enclosed spaces. Ensure good ventilation.
The exhaust gases contain harmful substances
that are potentially fatal.
WARNING! Risk of entrapment between
the sawmill and the log during loading.
The log pile must always be secured by placing
a reliable retaining strap around the logs,
for example (see Operating instructions).
Never climb onto the rail or the log bed
crossbars.
