5.4 Feeding the last log for splitting
Feed the last log the usual way to the splitting chute as soon as the pusher has re-
turned to its rear position.
Start the splitting movement manually.
WARNING! Make sure that the tree always remains under the clamp during cutting.
The minimum length for the log is 25 cm.
6 DISTURBANCES DURING CROSSCUT OPERATION AND THEIR
REMEDY
6.1 Crooked trees
Cut crooked trees where they bend.
As you cut crooked trees, make sure that the log is leaning against the support roller.
6.2 Big trees
If the cutting sound is soft, the cutting speed and the saw-blade revolutions are correct.
If the cutting sound is loud and cracking, the blade is proceeding too fast and the saw-
dust grooves get clogged. Check the rotational speed, proceeding speed of the cross-
cut blade and sharpness of the blade.
If the tree gets stuck in the blade as a result of faulty cutting, stop the machine immedi-
ately using the emergency stop button on the electrically-powered machines, or the dis-
engagement lever for transmission on the tractor-powered machine. Also disengage
the PTO shaft on the tractor-powered machine.
Inspect the stuck saw-blade before continuing the cutting and verify no cracks have ap-
peared in the roots of the teeth.
WARNING! A faulty saw-blade must not be used for cutting.
6.3 Cutting of small trees without splitting
It is also possible to cut small trees by first removing the wedge and then pushing the
firewood straight onto the conveyor.
