1. Place the log on the rails facing the folding
log supports (FIG. 46).
2. Set the height of the bandsaw blade using
the crank (29).
3. Clean any sand from the log, if necessary.
This results in less wear.
4. Place the band guide (8) as close as possible
to the log without the log and band guide
touching each other. Lock the band guide
using the lever (7).
5. Check the cleaning fluid tank (3) and fill with
cleaning fluid if necessary. Use a cleaning
fluid with lubricating properties, for example,
water and detergent. The mixture should be
made up of 80% water and 20% detergent.
Wintertime: add windscreen washer fluid.
6. Check the fuel tank (17) and fill with fuel if
necessary. See page 23.
Calculating the Yield
Measure the log’s top end and determine how
the log should be utilised for the timber in ques-
tion. Include the thickness of the saw cut in the
calculation.
The saw cut thickness = 2 mm.
