SAFETY OF OPERATION

DANGER

This machine was built and designed with your safety in mind.

Your physical well-being is important to us. Decals and guarding were installed on your machine for your safety. It will only serve as your protection if the decals are read, understood, and followed as indicated. Guarding should be left installed and maintained.

All operators or potential operators are to read and understand the complete owner’s manual. It is the owner of this machine’s responsibility to insure that all individuals operating this machine are properly trained and qualified according manufacturer’s recommendations. Any individual who has not read and understood this owner’s manual and decals is NOT qualified to operate this machine. The operator’s safety is dependent on the individual’s knowledge of this machine and how to safely operate this machine at full potential.

WARNING

Almost all accidents occur when proper operator safety procedures are not followed or machine has not been properly maintained and/or adjusted to manufacturer recommendations.

Operator mistakes normally occur when the individual has operated the machine for a length of time. After the operator is accustomed to the machine the alertness and cautiousness has a tendency to fade away. Reaching into splitter area while splitter is in motion, steadying the log while feeding log forward or holding onto the wood while saw is in function are some common mistakes made when accidents happen. Usually these mistakes are made by experienced operators. Always maintain the initial operator alertness throughout all the time spent operating this machine.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

This machine is intended to be operated by experienced machinery operators. Operator shall also be aware of any additional personnel in the general vicinity. Each person should always know the whereabouts of the other person(s). Operators are to be familiarized with the safety of operation of this manual.

CAUTION

Keep children, bystanders and animals at least 100’ away from machine while in operation. Beware of any potential flying pieces of wood from saw or out of the splitting wedge. Logs on the deck also have the potential to fall or possibly roll off causing severe damage to the machine or to the operator and any bystanders.

CALIFORNIA

Proposition 65 Warning

Diesel engine exhaust fumes and some of its constituents are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, and other reproductive harm.

DANGER

Before starting machine make a circle around your machine.

The machine area should be restricted to any by-passers. It is absolutely necessary that the operator has unobstructed access to the machine with no protruding branches, logs, stumps, or uneven ground to cause tripping and possibly result in severe injury. The log deck and discharge conveyor should be secured.

Check for loose components, tools, or foreign objects in or on any part of the machine. Check for blown or leaky hoses or disconnected fuel lines. Make sure all caps are on reservoirs or tanks and are tightly secured. Make sure all canvas covers are removed while in operation.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING

Operator must always be on alert for any potential dangers. Also be watchful for any emergency shut-downs caused by equipment failures or unpredictable sudden harmful situations caused by jammed or falling wood or logs that could result in personal harm or injury. Operator must always be accessible to the controls and shut-down features of the machine.

DANGER

Always make sure loose clothing and gloves are contained to prevent any danger of snagging on logs, wood and any moving parts. Long hair, neckties, jewelry, shirt tails, loose shirt sleeves or open coats all have potential danger of catching in moving machinery parts or wood.

Failure of the cable winch or safety cable will allow the conveyor to collapse resulting in severe injury. Be sure the log deck leg pins are properly in place before loading logs onto the deck. Log deck will collapse if pins are not in place. Always install safety brackets onto the conveyor before transit.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

DANGER

NEVER reach into saw area while engine is running. Saw chain is extremely dangerous if in motion. One can lose body parts by saw before one knows what happened.

NEVER reach into splitting area while engine is running. Extreme pressure is applied as splitting ram pushes wood through wedge.

Wood will at times snap upward from where ram is pushing against. Hands can potentially be pinched in or be hit by flying wood. As wood passes through splitting wedge, at times the piece will fling off small pieces as it breaks open, or piece will at times completely fly out of the splitter itself. Severe injury or loss of a body part will result if hands are caught or pinched in this action.

NEVER reach in around motor chains, deck chains, cables, sprockets, or any moving component of this machine. Never remove any guarding of any kind.

DANGER

Never attempt to process logs with nails, wire, stones, any kind of hardware or foreign object. These objects can cause breakage of equipment and become a potential missile.

Never attempt to process logs with vines or vine-like materials wrapped around the log. This can result in dragging in body parts or catching onto machine components causing machine damage or personal injury. If vines or branches get wrapped around sprockets or shafts, immediately stop the engine and remove the material.

DANGER

NEVER operate this machine indoors or in any enclosed or

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

unventilated area. Engine exhaust fumes can cause severe sickness or death. Never refuel in an unventilated area or while engine is running. DO NOT SMOKE

set up.

To set up the firewood processor conveyor, follow these steps:

1. Start by removing transport safety bars.

2. Turn the manual winch counter clockwise to lower the conveyor to a convenient height for your processing needs.

NEVER stand underneath the conveyor.

ALWAYS USE SAFETY CHAIN ON CONVEYOR!

SC-12 / SC-12XP • SET UP

The HONDA gas engine can be safely operated at 3600 rpm. The speed is typically set at the factory. The engine should be choked for approx 5 seconds.

The oiler knob must be turned on at all times to supply oil to the saw bar. See Fig 1 The knob must be turned only approximately 1/2 turn. You should see oil dripping off the chain sprocket. The bar should be getting enough oil to prevent discoloring from overheating. If you get excessive oil, you may experience a spray or mist hitting the operator. This indicates too much oil. The system will apply oil continuously. You must turn off the oiler when shutting down the engine.

Fig.1

Use winter grade bar and chain oil. The hydraulic system uses a standard 46 weight hydraulic fluid. Keep the oil level checked daily. It should always be in between the high and low marks on the level

gauge. The temperature gauge is also on the level. It should not exceed

180 degrees Fahrenheit. Running in excess could damage the hydraulic system. The tank holds 15 gallons of hydraulic fluid and can be filled by opening the cap on the top, see

Fig 2. Check the level before you run the machine.

The log deck needs to be lowered before the logs can be placed on top. Be careful to keep hands away from the hinge points.

These are serious pinch points and can

Fig.3

cause serious injury, see Fig 3. The legs must be dropped to the ground for loading one log at a time or set horizontally for multiple log loading, and pinned into place. The logs can then be loaded onto the log deck. It works best to keep the row of logs single without piling them on top of each other.

SC-12 / SC-12XP • SET UP

OPERATION OF THE MACHINE

The logs can now be advanced toward the in-feed trough and deposited one at a time. The hydraulic controls have appropriate instructions for the travel direction of the chains. Be sure to use only one function per lever simultaneously.

The log is then brought into position to the marker. This marker is adjustable up to 24” lengths. See Fig. 4. Next, pull the lever for the clamp. See Fig. 4. When it is clamped then pull the saw lever. See Fig. 4. The log saw motor will automatically start at this point and will stop when the saw is returned to home. The log will drop into the splitter hopper and the lever must be pushed the opposite direction to raise the saw. Release the clamp when the saw is in the upper (home) position and advance the log hydraulically for the next cut. The log is split using the right hydraulic lever. NEVER split with excess log mass on a horizontal wedge wing only or by splitting a piece of wood in a vertical position. This causes excess fatigue on the wing and can bend or break it. The warranty on the wedge is voided if this happens. While the splitter is returning, you may advance the log into position again. You must never attempt to saw a log while the splitter ram is in motion. These two functions must be operated independently. ALWAYS watch the splitting operation while splitting a log.

HYDRAULIC ADJUSTMENTS

The hydraulic pressure can be monitored by the gauge beside the control panel. The relief valve pressure adjusts higher by turning clockwise. The relief valve has a cap that needs to be turned off and a jam nut that needs to be loosened before adjusting. See Fig 6.

The Splitter Pressure should read max 2500 psi with a 13 HP engine and 2800 psi with a

20 HP engine. You can get that reading by stalling the splitter cylinder in the retract (home) position. To adjust, turn the relief valve on the splitter valve. See Fig 6.

Fig. 6

The Conveyor Pressure (if supplied) should be no more than

500 psi. To change this pressure, adjust the relief valve on the return manifold under the control panel. See Fig. 7.

SC-12 / SC-12XP• MAINTENANCE

MAINTENANCE

The bearings should be greased with one shot of grease every

200 hours. The engine must be maintained according to the instructions of the engine manual. The saw chain (.404) must be sharpened or replaced whenever it is dull. If it dulls on one side it may pull the bar to the side and cause binding. This machines

18” bar requires an 68 tooth drive link for its chain. The hydraulic fluid is standard 46 weight and should be checked daily. Use winter grade bar and chain oil for the saw bar. Change the hydraulic filter every 250 hours of use. Use Zinga filter # HE-

10L. See Fig 16. Check the air filter every 20 hours. Clean them if dirty. Change the engine oil every 50 running hours. Grease the main splitter slider daily. Refer to and follow instructions in the HONDA engine manual.

CONTINUED ADJUSTMENTS

Check the log loader chain weekly. Tighten it to snug if it is loose. The chains may stretch in the first 50 hours of operation.

You may use the the log loader as a log deck with or without the log dogs. If you wish to use the SC-12 without the dogs you may replace the chains with a master link. Call the factory for these if they are not supplied.

If the detent on the splitter return does not stay engaged while retracting. See Fig 9.

1.) Loosen jam nut.

2.) Turn clockwise approximately

SC-14 • SET UP CONT’D

THE KOHLER GAS ENGINE:

Can be safely operated at 3700 rpm. This is typically set at the factory. The engine should be choked for approx 5 seconds.

If you are running a diesel please refer to the CAT manual provided. The choke pull is beside the throttle pull.

The oiler must be turned on at all times. There are 2 options for oilers on the SC-14. The standard oiler pulls oil from the hydraulic tank. There will be a knob on the power block to control the oil flow on a machine that is oiling from the hydraulics, this must be turned one 1/4 of a turn. You should see oil dripping off the chain sprocket. The bar should be getting enough oil to prevent discoloring from overheating. If you get excessive oil, you may experience a spray or mist hitting the operator. This indicates too much oil. The system will apply oil every time the saw bar is coming down. You will need to watch the oil level. You may need to add several quarts per day. The second option is a dedicated oiler. The oil reservoir is on the back shield with the oil pump below. The control is on the oiler pump.

THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM uses a standard 46 weight hydraulic

fluid. Check the oil level daily. It should always be in between the high and low marks on the level gauge. The temperature gauge is also on the level. It should not exceed 180 degrees Fahrenheit.

Running in excess could damage the hydraulic system. The tank holds

Fig. 5

25 gallons of oil and can be filled by opening the cap on the top, see Fig 5 check the level before you run the machine.

The log deck needs to be lowered before the logs can be placed on top. These are serious pinch points and can cause serious injury, see

Fig 6. The legs must be dropped to the ground or set on blocks and pinned into place.

Pinch

SC-14 • OPERATION

The logs can now be loaded onto the log deck. It works best to keep the row of logs single without piling them on top of each other. ALWAYS keep out from under the logs on the deck. They could drop and cause serious injury. Never load logs from the engine side of the machine.

OPERATING THE MACHINE

The logs can now be advanced toward the in-feed trough and deposited one at a time.

The joystick controls have appropriate instructions for the travel direction of the chains.

See Fig 7. Be sure to use only one function per joystick simultaneously.

The log is brought into position to the orange marker. See fig 8.

Fig. 7

Next, pull the lever for the clamp, when it is clamped, the saw will automatically start and travel through the log. The log will drop into the splitter hopper and the lever must be pushed the opposite direction to raise the saw. The clamp will open when the saw reaches the up position. The log is split using the middle splitter lever.

Fig. 8

The 4-way wedge may be raised to the log’s center to maximize the split. Be sure and keep the log centered across the wedge especially with the 4-way wedge. NEVER split with excess log mass on a horizontal wedge wing only. This causes excess fatigue on the wing and can bend or break it. The warranty on the wedge is voided if this happens.

While the splitter is returning, you may advance the log into position again. You must never attempt to saw a log while the splitter ram is in motion. These two functions should be operated independently for best results. The splitter valve will automatically snap into neutral when the cylinder bottoms out.

Relief

Fig. 10

This is not a critical pressure, but in case you need to adjust it, you must adjust the relief valve behind the oil tank, see Fig 11. The Splitter Pressure should read 2800 psi to 3000 psi. You can get that reading by stalling the splitter cylinder in the retract (home) position. To adjust the detent on the splitter valve retract loosen the jam nut and turn the adjustment bolt in to hold tighter. See Fig 12.

Fig. 11 Fig. 12

SC-14 • OPERATION CONT’D & MAINTENANCE

The Clamp Pressure should be approx 600 psi. This can be read by completely lowering the clamp. If the pressure is too low, the saw motor will start softly or hesitate. The relief valve for this is located at the top of the control block. See Fig 13.

The Saw Feed Pressure should be set at approximately 95-110 psi. If it is adjusted too high, the saw motor will stick and stall. If it is too low it may feed slowly or it may pulse. Try to adjust it as high as possible without stalling the saw. The relief valve is located on the side of the control block, the hand knob. See

Fig 14.

MAINTENANCE

The bearings should be greased with one shot of grease every 200 hours of use.

Fig. 14

Grease

The engine must be maintained according to the instructions of the engine manual.

Keep Plates

The saw chain (.404) must be sharpened or replaced whenever it is dull. If it dulls on one side it may pull the bar to the side and cause binding. This machine’s 20” bar requires and 78 tooth drive link for its chain. The

hydraulic fluid is standard 46 weight hydraulic fluid and should be added daily to compensate for the oiler usage. Keep the soft start pivot greased daily, see Fig 15. Change the hydraulic filter every 250 hours of use.

Use Zinga filter # HE-10L. See Fig 16. Check the air filter every 20 hours. Clean them if dirty. Change the engine oil every 50 running hours.

Fig. 16

SC-14 • MAINTENANCE CONT’D

Your machine has 2 different ways it could be set up for the bar oiling, depending on how the machine was ordered from the factory.

Fig. 17

If your machine is equipped with a standard oiler from the machine hydraulics, your adjustments knob is on top of the control block, see Fig. 17. Adjust clockwise to decrease oil flow and counterclockwise to increase oil flow. Your chain should be moist with oil. If oil is misting away from chain while it is engaged, your flow should be slightly decreased. If your chain is not freely moving on the bar and seems restricted or hot, slightly increase your oil flow.

If your machine is equipped with a dedicated system, the flow control for the dedicated oiler is located on the oiler pump. See

Fig. 18 adjust this knob counterclockwise this will increase flow and clockwise will decrease flow.

Step 5. Now pour some oil (bar & chain oil or air tool oil both work well) it to the sprocket and along the rails on both sides of the saw bar.

CHAIN MAINTENANCE/SHARPENING

• Always set the clamp assembly at 35° for the left-hand side and right-hand side

• Always set the grinding head assembly at 60°

• Always use the 3/16 grinding wheel. It will come along with your grinder(Optional diamond grinding wheels are available. Though more expensive it is faster and decreases risk of burning the tooth.)

• Dress your vitrified grinding wheel often to maintain correct shape. (use the dressing brick that will come with your grinder, also use the gauge to check if it is the right shape )(this procedure is not needed with a diamond grinding wheel)

• Always be sure you do not burn the saw-chain tooth. This will weaken the tooth and it will lose its sharpness very quickly. To avoid burning the tooth, use light, intermittent strokes.
