Find a suitable location. Use the log stand on firm, level ground only. Do not

After securing a log in the log stand, check the stability and balance before

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
IDENTIFICATION
- Log support frame.
- Cross bar.
- Teeth.
- Base.
- Diagonal brace.
- Brace pin.
OPERATING THE LOG STAND
OPERATING THE LOG STAND (FIGS 1-3)
Ensure that the ground on which you are placing the log stand is firm and
level.
With the log stand lying on the ground, lift the log support frame into the
vertical position (Fig.1).
Rotate the diagonal braces (Fig.2) from their stored position and fit the holes in the ends of the braces over the pins on the inside of the forward part of the base (Fig.3).
(FIGS 4-6)
Insert the log through the teeth in the direction shown (Fig.4), until
approximately 1/3 of the log length is forward of the log support frame. The
log should be angled so that the short end of the log is slightly lower than
the rear.
Rest the log on the lower teeth on the cross bar and slowly release the weight so that the upper teeth engage with the log.
The log should be approximately horizontal with 1/3 of its length forward of the log support frame. (Fig.5).
WARNING: With heavy and long logs, the weight of the log is sufficient to engage the teeth. Do not press down on the long overhanging end of the log as this may result in damage to the log stand.
Begin by cutting the initial few logs from the long over hanging end of the
log and cut successive logs so as to maintain the ratio of approximately 1/3
of the remaining length forward to the log support frame and 2/3 behind
(Fig.6).
WARNING: Always cut in a downward direction as shown.
WARNING: Check that the log is secure and the log stand is stable before beginning to cut.
IMPORTANT: Please read these instructions carefully. Note the safe operational requirements, warnings and cautions. Use the product correctly and with care for the purpose for which it is intended. Failure to do so may cause damage and/or personal injury and will invalidate the warranty. Please keep these instructions safe for future use.
MAINTENANCE
This log stand is load bearing, therefore it is essential to routinely check the fixings and overall condition of the steel work. Do not use the log stand if it exhibits any signs of fatigue or wear. Apply common sense and if in doubt, do not use it. Contact Draper Tools for further advice.
