Adjustments – Log Bed
(A)
Check that when the log
bed is cranked down, it moves
easily through the saddle plate
driven by its own weight. If this
is not the case:
-
Place the log bed in its
uppermost position.
Lock it using the rachet
cam to prevent it from
falling down.
-
Loosen the four bolts on the
saddle plate and place it straight
in relationship to the lifting
beam.
- Place the log bed in its
lowest position.
Loosen the

plastic slide rail on the log
bed (D) and adjust it so that
it is straight in relation to the
T-shaped log bed track.
-
Lubricate the sliding surfaces
and the T-track of the lifting
beam using silicon or Teflon
spray.
(B)
Check the height of the
log bed. Set the rachet in the
1/4" position. Place the setting
block on the log bed. Move the
chainsaw so that the guide bar is
right over the log bed. Move the
log bed up to the notch where
the setting block is nearest to
the underside of the guide bar.
(C)
Use the bolt and inside
nut on the rachet bar to move
the log bed up until the setting
block touches the underside
of the guide bar. Should the
adjustment be insufficient or
too much, move the log bed
up or down a notch and adjust
again.
Lock using the inside nut.
(D)
To adjust the scale indicator,
loosen the two bolts holding it
and the plastic block on the log
bed. Set both indicators of the
scale to 2" in the position where
the setting block touches the
underside of the guide bar.
