3. Safety Rules
3.1 General
Should there be any information or instructions in
this manual that are not in compliance with local
laws and regulations in force in the country or
region where this equipment is operated, the local
laws and regulations must take precedence.
Inspect the felling head daily for signs of damage, unusual wear, fatigue cracks or faulty operation.
Make sure that other personnel remain at least 300 ft. (100 m) away from the felling head.
Observers should stand on the opposite side of the machine from where chips are being exhausted from the
saw opening.
When moving the machine, watch that enough clearance is available on both sides and above the felling
head. Extra clearance may be required particularly where the ground is uneven.
Approach an area where overhanging electrical powerlines are present with extreme caution. Serious injury
or death by electrocution can result if the machine or any of its attachments are not kept at a safe distance
from these lines.
Maintain a distance of 10 ft. (3 m) between the machine or boom and any power line carrying up to 50,000
volts or less.
Powerlines carrying more than 50,000 volts require a safety distance of 10 ft. (3 m) plus 1/2 inch (12.7 mm)
for each additional 1,000 volts above the 50,000 volt level. If state/province, local or job site regulations
require even greater safety distances than stated above, adhere strictly to these regulations for your own
protection.
Do not approach the felling head unless the disc saw blade has come to a complete stop and the engine has
been shut down.
Comply with instructions in this manual and also your company's regulations for the operation of this
felling head.
Maintain a safe operating distance between the equipment and other personnel. Never swing the boom,
attachment, or load over the heads of bystanders.
Stop the saw blade when traveling to or from the felling site.
Shut the saw off immediately and stop the blade if an imbalance occurs. Do not operate the saw blade in an
unbalanced condition.
Wait until the saw blade achieves full speed before cutting the tree.
Never operate the saw blade at higher speed than the maximum upper limit.
Adhere strictly to all regulations at the work site pertaining to the operation of this equipment.
WARNING
Hydraulic fluid under pressure can penetrate
the skin and cause serious personal injury,
blindness, or death. If any fluid is injected
into the skin, it must be surgically removed
within a few hours by a doctor familiar with
treating this type of injury.
4. Description
4.1 Nomenclature
Motor
The saw driveshaft is driven by a bent-axis piston
type variable displacement motor. The motor is
mounted to an adapter plate and coupled to the
driveshaft by a splined coupler.
Pump
Hydraulic oil for the saw drive is supplied by a
machine mounted pump.
Control Valve
Flow from the pump is directed to the motor inlet
port via a machine mounted control valve.
Important!
Contact of both stop plates must be made with the
boom arm at the same time. This will prevent the
felling head frame from twisting.
5. Operation
WARNING
Nothing can replace adequate training of
those in the logging woods who work on or
near feller bunchers. While feller bunchers
have been a tremendous addition to
mechanized logging and have made logging
a much safer occupation, it is imperative that
those working on or near feller bunchers
realize that a feller buncher is a dangerous
piece of equipment that MUST be respected.
Those on the ground working near feller
bunchers MUST maintain a safe working
distance (at least 300 feet) from the feller
buncher and must follow all other
instructions provided on and with the feller
buncher and felling head. The use and
operation of the saw head for any other
purpose than stated in the Operator’s Manual
is not recommended nor approved by
Timberjack/Koehring Waterous.
Important!
Do not clamp the tree until after the cut is complete.
Important!
Do not push the tree into position. Hard impacts
will damage the head and booms. Also, ensure that
the butt of the tree does not touch the blade once the
tree has been released.
