In-feed deck
The Palax Active is equipped with a 300-mm wide and 825-mm long in-feed deck (Fig. 3.6 C)
with a hydraulically driven feed roller. Fig. 3.6 A.
The in-feed deck is fitted with an adjustable log clamp with return spring. Fig. 3.6 B. The clamp
is controlled mechanically by means of the handle D.
The clamp makes sawing of the last log significantly easier, as it enables the log to be kept in
position during the sawing operation.

How the safety features affect the operation of the machine
The machine is equipped with devices that ensure operational safety. The safety-related devices
affect the operation of the cover for the splitting area, the saw-bar and the pusher.
The protective net for the splitting chute must be closed so as to enable the cutting and splitting
operations.
Once the protective net is opened, the pusher stops, and the operation of the hydraulic valves is
prevented. When the cover is closed, the pusher automatically returns to its rear position.
Warning!
All the safety-related devices are necessary to ensure a sufficient level of safety.
Do not remove any of the safety features from the machine. The machine operator is
responsible for the correct operation of the safety-related devices.
