The safe distance is 8 m for the operator or 15 m for persons other than the operator. The picture below shows the Logosol sawmill from above. The operator is to remain within the area marked with a dashed line (- - - -) when the saw is in operation. The operator is not to stretch over the line when operating the unit. The operator's position during operation. When using petrol driven chainsaws: Fire risk. Turn off the engine before refuelling. Petrol is extremely inflammable. Burn injuries can be life threatening. If you spill fuel, immedi- ately clean the components the fuel has come in contact with. Clothes on which fuel has been spilt are to be changed immediately. • Tighten the tank cap as tightly as possible, to minimise the risk that the cap vibrates loose dur- ing sawing. • Never saw with the chainsaw throttle locked. Al- ways operate the throttle manually when sawing. Increased throw-out risk! Never use rip sharp- ened chain when cutting. Before each work period: • Check the lifting line's condition in particular. Change immediately any sign of wear is detect- ed. Check that bolted joints and locks in the log bed lift and lock system are fully tightened and that all the Logosol sawmill moving parts move freely and smoothly. • Check that the sawmill is completely level and that it is securely fixed to the underlying surface. Risk of overturning! • Check that the cutting equipment is correctly assembled. Risk of chain breaks! • Check that saw unit is pushed fully into position on the guide rail. Throw-out risk on start up! During operation: The sawmill is not to be in any other posi- tion than level when in operation. Risk of overturning! The Logosol sawmill should be fastened directly to the floor or be placed on a bedding of planks which increases the area of the load bearing surface (see manual). • Hold the crank firmly whenever raising or lower- ing a log. If released, the crank may spin back and hit your hand hard. Do not place your hand on the inside of the long leg when raising or lowering the log. There is a risk that your hand can be trapped if the lifting line snaps or the crank spins. • Logs must always be rolled on to the sawmill level with the horizontal beam. Never lift logs from ground level directly up onto the sawmill. There is a risk of damage if the log drops or if the sawmill overturns! • Do not saw short logs that do not extend more than 0.2 m beyond each log bed. A shorter log can fall off when the log beds are raised! • The maximum permitted load for the sawmill is 500 kg. Extensions increase the maximum load by 250 kg for each leg unit with lifting unit. Always stand to the right of the saw unit when it is in operation. Chains or bands that break can be thrown out through the chip outlet. • Keep the worksite free of tools, pieces of wood, chips and other items you can trip on. Turn the chain-saw off after each cut. Never leave the Logosol sawmill unattended such that uploads/Industriel/ manual-m8-en.pdf
