Quad Saw Operating Instructions
It is recommended to travel forward slowly when starting work in order to maintain
the correct speed of the blades. Adjust the angle of the saw to present the
branches approx 90° to the blades. Always ensure the blades are vertical to allow
cut branches to fall away. If a large branch is approaching adjust the working
height to ensure it meets the centre of a blade.
Do not use horizontally there is a danger the weight of the cut braches will bend
the blades, however 45° is permitted for trimming material up to 40mm diameter.
The Quad saw will cut up-to 100mm maximum, branches over 80mm must be cut
one at a time, pausing forward travel to allow the saw time to cut each branch.
In the event of small twigs or debris jamming the saw blades, stop the machine
immediately and clear the blockage with a suitable tool.
Ensure there is a skid mounted on the bottom of the saw attachment to protect the
lowest blade from striking the ground.
Warning
Take care not bend the blades in storage or during work. The blades must be
inspected daily for signs for fatigue and cracking, do not use the machine with
damaged blades they must be replaced immediately.
Before starting the saw for the first time after connecting the hoses, you must
ensure the hydraulic motor is primed with oil and the case has filled with oil, via the
small hose connection. Failure to fill the motor case with oil will lead to seizure due
lack of lubrication.
Note
:
To change rotation of motor exchange the position of the pressure/returns hoses
and the anti-cav valve with the plug.
