Operating Instructions
Keep all persons out of the path of moving
equipment and logs when operating or
loading, turning or raising logs. Failure to do
so can result in serious injury.
Before loading a log, be sure the cutting
head is moved all the way to the end of the bed so
the log does not hit it. Failure to do so may result in
machine damage.
Always raise the log clamp before loading a log
onto the bed. Failure to do so can result in the log
rolling off the opposite side of the bed.
As soon as the log rolls off the loader onto the bed,
raise the log rest to prevent the log from rolling back
off.
1. Use the hydraulic log loader to load a log onto the bed frame.
2. Move the saw carriage to the front of the mill.
3. Raise the log clamp so the log does not roll on the opposite side of the bed.
4. Roll the log into the loader and center it.
Pull the loader lever down to raise the log onto the sawmill bed frame. Raise it until the
log rolls onto the bed frame.
As soon as the log rolls off the loader, raise the log rest.
To lower the log loaders push the log loader lever up/forward.
Note: If the log has to be lowered back onto the ground, do it with caution and slowly.
Keep the area well clear in case the log rolls off the loader arms.
EN–10
Always ensure the weight of the log is evenly
divided between the two loader arms.
Maximum log weight 1 360 kg (3 000 lb).
The loader arm cradles haves to be firmly
supported on the ground. If the ground is uneven
and/or soft, use whatever planks or similar item
necessary to support them properly.
Make sure that the same amount of log overhangs
each side of the loader arms.
Make sure that both loader arms work in concert,
that they are firmly connected to the bed and that
they are connected to each other via the bars.
