1.5 Safety instructions
Always use eye guards and hearing protectors.
Do not wear loosely-fitting clothing.
Keep the working space clear of foreign objects.
Never use the machine indoors, owing to the risk of dust generation or the danger of
exhaust gases for a unit powered by a combustion engine.
Keep the exhaust pipe of the combustion-engine-driven unit at a safe distance (i.e. at
least 1 metre) from anything which might catch fire: danger of fire!
Beware of the hot exhaust pipe on the combustion-engine-driven unit!
Always stop the engine for refuelling.
Only operate the machine in a properly lit space.
Make sure that all other people stay outside the operating range. The machine is
intended for operation by one person only.
The machine is exclusively intended for the production of firewood.
During the cut-off operation, make sure that the tree is always supported by the support
rollers of the cross-cut deck: danger of rolling over!
Exercise particular caution when cutting knotty or crooked trees, because, as a result
of faulty cutting, the tree may roll over or twist the saw-blade with a force which breaks
or splits the blade.
Carelessness during the cut-off operation constitutes a serious danger.
Always stop the machine before servicing.
Always ensure that the electric conductors, if any, are intact.
Always shift and lock the table extension into its rear position for transportation.
Always lock the cross-cut deck in the rear position for transportation.
Never remove any safety-related devices from the machine. Remember that you are
responsible for any injuries caused if safety-related devices have been removed from
the machine.

Only use fault-free power take-off drive shafts and attach the chains for the shaft-guard
to the machine.
WARNING! Beware of low bridges and other obstacles!
A machine equipped with a 3.5 m conveyor is about 3.6 m high, hence fitted to the
three-point linkage of a tractor its height may exceed 4 metres. The 4.5-metre conveyor
is intended for stationary use only.
