7. The log can be turned now. Repeat steps 4 through 7 until the log is turned as desired.
You may opt to use the clamp to turn boards or a cant. To turn a cant using the clamp:
1. Lower the clamp up/down lever to lower the clamp below bed level.
2. Using the clamp in/out lever, move the clamp in, beneath the edge of the cant.
3. Raise the clamp up/down lever to raise the clamp and flip the cant.
To Clamp Logs:
1. Raise the clamp in/out lever and clamp the log against the side supports.
2. Lower the turner lever until the turner arm falls below the bed.
3. When the turner arm is lowered all the way, the side supports will begin to lower. Back the clamp off
slightly, and let the side supports come down until they are positioned below the level of your first
few cuts.
To Level A Tapered Log:
Use the toe board to raise either end of a tapered log, if desired.
Raise the appropriate lever to raise the front or rear toe board until the heart of the log measures
the same distance from the bed rails at each end of the log.
