Safety Instructions

KEY TO SYMBOLS

⚠️ WARNING! This symbol means that you should pay particular attention and is always followed by information about the relevant risk.
ℹ️ This symbol is followed by important information or instructions. Pay particular attention when this symbol appears in the manual text.
For your own safety and the safety of others, do not operate the band sawmill or handle band blades without first having read and understood all the contents of this user manual.
?⚠️ WARNING! Cutting tools: Incorrect use can lead to life-threatening injuries. Band blades are extremely sharp and dangerous.
? Always use protective gloves (class 1) when working with the band sawmill or handling band blades. Risk of lacerations when handling band blades and some of the plates. Band blades and motor parts may be hot after sawing.
? Always use approved hearing protection when working with the machine. Even short exposure to high frequency noise can damage your hearing.
? Always use close-fitting safety goggles when working with the machine or handling band blades.
? Under certain circumstances, the use of respiration protection may be necessary. This would mainly apply if you are sawing dry wood or sawing indoors.
? Always wear approved protective footwear with saw protection, steel toe-caps and nonslip soles when working with the machine or handling band blades.
? Always wear full-length protective trousers when working with the machine or handling band blades. Never wear loose-fitting clothing, scarves, neck chains, etc., that can get caught in the machine during operation. Secure loose hair before working with the band sawmill.

THE SAFETY EQUIPMENT OF THE BAND SAWMILL

⚠️ WARNING! Never use the machine if the safety equipment is defective.
The safety equipment must be checked and maintained.
Here is a description of the safety features of the band sawmill together with their functions:
- Interlock safety switch on the band wheel guard: One of the hinges of the band wheel guards is equipped with an interlock safety switch. The machine cannot be used without having these guards closed.
- Rail end stops: Mechanical stops that prevent the saw carriage from rolling off at the end of the rails.

THE WORKSITE

⚠️ WARNING! Never operate a band sawmill with a petrol-powered engine in enclosed or poorly ventilated areas. This can result in death due to suffocation or carbon monoxide poisoning.
▶️ Only operate the band sawmill and handle band blades in full daylight or under adequate lighting.
Keep the work area free from clutter, pets, children, obstacles, or other things that can distract the operator.
Choose a worksite where the ground is hardpacked and level, with plenty of space for the band sawmill, a pile of logs, and sawn timber. If possible, place the band sawmill so that the sawdust blows away from the operator. Set up the band sawmill on level ground with at least 5 m of free space without any obstacles around the equipment. If the band sawmill is to be set up permanently, we recommend that you support the rail frame with concrete plinths or wooden blocks (15 cm x 15 cm) under each cross bunk.
? Always keep a hand-held, ABC type (min. 6 kg) fire extinguisher readily accessible at the worksite.
? Always keep a fully-stocked first-aid kit easily accessible at the worksite.

OPERATOR

⚠️ WARNING! Whenever the machine is used, approved personal protective equipment must always be used.
Persons under the age of 18 may not work with the band sawmill or handle band blades.
Never work with the machine or handle band blades if you are tired, if you have consumed alcohol, or if you are taking medication that can impair your vision, judgment, reaction times, mobility, alertness, or otherwise cause negative side effects.

Cable Trunk Connection

Diagrams illustrate the routing and connection of electrical cable harnesses. Connectors are labeled with types like 'M12 8p' and quantities like '2p', '4p', '5p'. Cable lengths of 4m (01-00946) and 10m (01-00945) are specified.

A diagram shows the main machine frame with cables routed along its structure. Strain relief mechanisms are visible for the supply cable and cable trunk.

First Start-Up Procedure

Check before starting

Check that the power supply is working.

Proceed as follows:

Run the saw head along the rail with the actuator, listen for noise and ensure that the chain is aligned between the gears.
Check that no physical collision occurs during the first run along the length of the rail.
Check that both the cable trunk and the supply cable are suspended in the strain relief.

Control Panel

The control panel features an operating lever, a large circular dial for 'Feed speed' marked from 0 to 100, a button labeled 'Start saw motor', and a 'Safety switch'. The motor start is operated in combination with the safety switch.

Troubleshooting Guide

PROBLEM/SYMPTOM	PROBABLE CAUSE	ACTIONS
The machine does not start.	Loose contacts. Moisture is present. Residual current device (RCD) tripped. Fuses blown in the saw box.	Try removing the connectors and then reinstalling them. Disconnect the power and take the box inside, let it dry and blow it out with compressed air. If an RCD trips, contact an electrician for troubleshooting. Replace the fuses in the saw box.
Abnormal noises from the mechanism.	Poor alignment on the feed chain. Insufficient chain tension. Gearbox wear. Worn bearings. Over-tensioned chain.	Check alignment between the lower and upper lift sprockets. Check chain tension. If bearing or gearbox wear is suspected, check for visual wear on the saw head bearings at the secondary shaft and at the gearbox mounting. Run the functions and listen for abnormal noise and feel if heat is building up. If a worn part is discovered, replace it.
The machine runs in the wrong direction.	Phase reversal in connector.	Switch phases in the machine's 400v socket.
The machine works but the engine does not run.	The motor is running hot; motor protection has tripped.	Wait until the motor has cooled and resume operation; the motor must not run hot. If the problem recurs, contact Logosol.
