4.3 SAWING The barsaw is always operating. The sawbar movement is performed using the sawbar activation handle (H-Figure: 7), during which the sawed log must be held using the retaining handle (P- Figure: 7). When the sawing begins, the trapdoor (13-Figure:8) moves away automatically, so the log can fall freely into a splitting chute after the cut.
¡ ¡ 4.4.1 ADJUSTING THE HEIGHT OF THE SPLITTING WEDGE By using a splitting wedge handle (L-Figure: 10), the splitting wedge can be gradually lifted or lowered depending on the diameter of the logs - so the logs are split in center. Splitting wedge adjustment can be performed most easily when the split- ting chute is empty or at the point when the splitting cylinders start to move.
4.4.3 “ START-STOP” SWITCH ( RCA 320 -2 E) Electrical system of the wood processor RCA 320-2 E includes, besides the main switch, also the “Start-Stop” switch (S-Figure: 1). The “Start-Stop” switch is used to turn ON/OFF the electric driving motor, which powers the cutting chain and whole hydraulic system.
