CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
1-1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
A machine of this nature can be dangerous if not used properly, therefore we strongly
recommend that the operator comply with the following safety guidelines:
The operator must read the operation manual very carefully, before using this
machine.
The operator must take enough training and have the related working
experience.
The saw arbor rotation is 3800r.p.m on this machine and the power used is
30-50HP. The work piece that fed by chain takes a large of reacting force
during cutting. If the pressure rollers can not hold down the work piece
properly, the work piece will be kick back anytime and hurt the operator. To
prevent the accident, when make a change on thickness of wood must adjust
the pressure rollers to the proper position. (refer to Ch.3-6)
As the sawdust will be stuck between the anti-kickback fingers to influence
its working, it is necessary to clear the sawdust from them often. Before use
the machine, be sure the anti-kickback fingers are not stuck with any sawdust
or other substances.

The operator should wear leather gloves and leather apron, and should stand
at the side of the machine. Never stand in line with the sawing lines.
Never touch, either directly or indirectly, any moving parts of the machine
while in operation, or wood which is presently being sawed.
Before sawing, the wood should be cleared of any foreign objects such as
metal, sand, and earth.
Never feed two or more planks of wood into the machine at the same time.
Never use wood of thickness greater than 110mm or length shorter than
300mm.
When making a change in the thickness of wood, the height of the pressure
rollers must be readjusted to the proper position. This is to ensure the rollers
maintain a firm grip so that the wood being cut cannot come flying out.
If using planks that have not had the edges squared, the wider side should
always be face down on the caterpillar chain.
Planks which are warped crosswise rather than completely flat should be
placed with the convex side face down on the caterpillar chain.

MULTIMAX 300 Chapter 1: INTRODUCTION

Planks which are warped lengthwise should be placed with the concave side
face down on the caterpillar chain.
Suitable circular woodcutting blades should always be used. The blades
should be checked regularly for bluntness, crack, and accumulation of
sawdust.
Make certain that blades are installed with the teeth pointing in the same
direction as the rotation of saw arbors turns.
Checks should be made regularly to ensure that there are no foreign objects
jammed in the gaps between the feed chain. An air gun should be used daily
to remove sawdust from these gaps.
Make certain that the power of the machine is disconnected from the power
source before effecting any cleaning, lubrication, maintenance, repair,
adjustments, or part replacements.
The operator should never leave the machine unattended when in use.
Similarly, after switching off the machine, the operator must be certain to
wait until the machine comes to a complete standstill before walking away.
