Initial operation

Observe the safety instructions before the com-
missioning.
• All safety and auxiliary installations must be fitted.
• Check the rocker inlet for wear and replace it if
necessary.
• Check the rocker that it returns to its home position
autonomously.
• Check the saw blade for perfect fitting and correct
direction of rotation.
• Changeover, setting, measuring and cleaning op-
erations are only to be conducted with the motor
switched off. Pull the mains plug and wait for the
rotating tool to come to halt.
• The saw is constructed solely for the cross cutting
of firewood.
• Regardless of the diameter of the wood only one
work piece is to be put on the rocker.
• Attention! Do not saw faggots or multiple pieces
at once.
• Put curved wood on the rocker in such a way that
the curved-out side is directed to the saw blade.
• Ensure the machine is securely placed on solid
ground.
Note!
For workplace safety, protect from tipping or shifting
by securing the saw with screws or bolts to the floor.

Ensure that the rotational direction of the saw blade
is the same as the rotational direction given on the
guard.
You can change the direction by placing a screw driver
in the slot provided in the plug collar and adjust the
correct direction by moving to the left or right applying
slight pressure.

• Insert the material to be cut.
• Close the protective cover (16).
• Pivot the swivel (2) with the handles (K) and (L)
to the saw blade and saw through the material to
be cut.
• Pivot the swivel (2) back and open the protective
cover.
• Add more material to be cut and close the protective
cover again.
Sawing
1 Turn on the machine.
2 Wait until the saw blade has reached full speed.
3 Put the wood on the rocker.
4 Take hold of both handle bars of the rocker with
both hands and lead it evenly to the saw blade;
thus the saw blade is revealed.
5 Push the rocker evenly to ensure the engine speed
does not drop.
6 Remove the sawn wood from the rocker before
putting on the next piece.
Attention!
Do not leave the machine unattended during opera-
tion.
Turn off the machine if you discontinue working, and
pull the mains plug.
Motor-brake appliance
The brake slows down the motor of the saw shaft with-
in 10 seconds.
In case the braking takes more than 10 seconds the
machine should not be used again, as the brake is
defective. The machine implicitly needs to be discon-
nected from the power supply. Only an electronic spe-
cialist should be instructed to repair this malfunction.
