Adjustment valve No.3 for proceeding speed of crosscut blade, Fig. 12,
only in s-model
When the valve is turned clockwise, the proceeding speed decreases, and when turned
counter-clockwise, it increases.
For thick logs, it pays to reduce the proceeding speed. This decreases the load on the
transmission and the crosscut blade.
Reducing the proceeding speed slightly does not affect the total processing time,
because splitting a thicker log also takes more time.

MECHANICAL CONTROL OF THE PALAX C750 Ergo USING THE
MULTI-FUNCTION LEVER
The crosscut operation, launching the splitting and operation of the infeed conveyor are
effortlessly controlled using multi-function lever 3, Fig. 14. The movement path and all
movements are precise as the shaft and the controls are all equipped with roller bearings.

chute. The machine does not operate, if the protective net is open.
2. The protective net for the splitting chute cannot be opened – press the multi-
function lever completely to the right. The protective net cannot be opened, unless
the multi-function lever is positioned completely to the right.
3. The splitting operation cannot be launched with manual control – close the
protective net for the splitting chute. The machine does not operate, if the protective
net is open.

cage.
Direction C; as the crosscut blade is raised to its upper position, the lever 3 can be
pressed in direction C to advance the log using the infeed conveyor.
Direction D; in the same position, the lever can be pulled out to make the infeed
conveyor reverse.
