2.
When working, take care that as little wood dust as possible will get into the surroundings.
3.
Remove wood dust depositions in the work area (do not blow away!).
4.
Note: the design of this machine is based on a conveying velocity of extracted air in the duct of 20 ms
-1
chips and 28 ms
for wet chips (moisture content 18% or above).
Hazard generated by insufficient personal protection gear!
1.
Wear suitable work clothing, providing protection against falling logs.
2.
Wear hair protection.
3.
Wear safety glasses.
4.
Wear dust mask
5.

At the front of the saw;
-
In the front of the saw;
-
Offset to the line of cut.
-
7.
After each cut return the
Hazard generated by pieces of wood being hurled away!
1.
Always place curved logs on the working table with the curved side facing the saw blade.
2.
Do not jam the log to be cut.
3.
Do not attempt to stop the saw blade by pushing the workpiece against its side.
4.
Always use sharp saw blades.
5.
If in doubt, inspect the logs for foreign matter (e.g. nails or screws).
