  2. Assembly of the StandThe legs are constructed by assembling each half of the structure and then joining them together.Tools for assembly (not included): Phillips screwdriver, M10, M13 & M14 spanners.1. Lay three legs on the ground, parallel to each other with teeth facing up.2. Place cross strut E over each leg, aligning the holes with the lower holes on each leg.Note: Leg C is positioned off centre to the left, this will allow correct alignment with the second half when joining them together.
  3. Lay cross strut D over E and all three legs.
  4. Once aligned, insert G screw from the outside and tighten nut on the inside (only hand tight at this initial stage).
  5. Using H screw and nut loosely fastening the remaining legs and cross struts together.
  6. Once all the legs and cross struts are joined together and the fasteners are assembled, use a spanner and screwdriver to tension the fasteners to complete this half of the structure
  7. Repeat the exact process, steps 1-6 for the other side, however, leg C is positioned off-center to the right, this will allow correct alignment with the first half when joining them together.The two halves can now be joined together to complete the stand.
  8. Place each side of the structure back to back and join each half together using both F & I fasteners as shown. Only tighten to the point where the chainsaw cutting stand can still be adjusted/folded.

OPERATION

2. SETUP

WARNING! ONLY USE ON LEVEL, NON-SLIP GROUND WARNING! THE SAFETY CATCH HAS TO BE SECURELY LATCHED BEFORE USE.

Height SettingsThe chainsawing trestle can be used in 3 different height settings.The height is set with the safety catch which must always be latched at the same height on both ends.

Supporting Timber

  • The serrated edges provide a stable non-slip area to support when cutting timber.
  • Ensure the wood you want to saw is securely placed between the serrated edges.

3. CHAINSAW CUTTING HINTS & TIPS

WARNING! WEAR SAFETY GLASSES AND HEARING PROTECTION. FURTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT FOR THE HEAD, HANDS, LEGS, AND FEET IS RECOMMENDED. ADEQUATE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING WILL REDUCE PERSONAL INJURY BY FLYING DEBRIS OR ACCIDENTAL CONTACT WITH THE SAW CHAIN.

  • Do not force the saw into the cut. Apply only light pressure whilst running the chain.
  • If the saw chain gets caught in the cut, do not try to remove it by twisting the guide bar or pulling forcibly. Use a lever or wedge to open up the cut so that the saw chain is freed.
  • Keep your left arm with the elbow locked in a “straight arm” position to withstand any kickback force.
  • While cutting, always:– Run the chainsaw motor at full speed. This makes the job safer, as there is less chance of pull-in or kick-back.– Position your body to the left of the chainsaw so if it kicks back uncontrollably, it goes over your right shoulder, never stand in the cutting line of the saw.– Keep a firm grip with your left hand on the front handle, with your thumb securely below the handle.
  1. Press the bucking spikes against the timber ensuring the chain is not making contact with the material being cut.
  2. Start cutting by holding the chainsaw by the front handle and raising the rear handle.
  3. If you cannot cut the timber in a single stroke, apply light pressure to the front handle and continue sawing, draw the chainsaw back a little then apply the bucking spikes a little lower and finish the cut by raising the rear handle.
  4. Withdraw the chainsaw from the cut while the chain is still running.
