3.5 Cutting device

The Japa 485 firewood processor is equipped with a hydraulic chainsaw, which only rotates during sawing.
The cutting device features an automatic chain tensioner. The cutting device is also connected to a safety
mechanism, which prevents the saw from rotating when the blade guard is open. The length of the log to
be cut can be adjusted freely between 20 and 66 cm.
Translation
To adjust the log length, move the hydraulic log
length limiter. The length is indicated by the scale.
Loosen the locking nuts that hold the hydraulics
valve in place and move the stop to the desired
length. Tighten the locking screws.

Sawing
When the lever is pulled, the saw is activated and
begins its downward motion. To deactivate the saw
and return it to the upper position, release the
lever.
When feeding in new logs for sawing, push the
wood gripper lever up to raise the gripper and
make way for the logs. You can conveniently use
the wood gripper with the thumb of your sawing
hand while feeding in wood.
After this, the wood gripper will automatically hold
and feed timber during sawing and feeding. If
necessary, you can increase the gripper's force by
pulling the lever down.
