manual abstract
The cradle attachment is packed in a separate carton. MOUNTING FRAME AND CONTROLS CAUTION: Do not have motor running when attaching saw. 1. Attach the saw frame (1, Fig. 1) to the patented QUICK-HITCH (2, Fig. 1) on the front of the tractor. 2. Tighten the two T nuts on QUICK-HITCH and drop stand (3, Fig. 1) into position on ground. NOTE: QUICK-HITCH is inserted in first and third holes from back of frame for 2 and 2Vz H.P. tractors and second and fourth holes for use with 5 H.P. tractors. 3. Attach stand rod (4, Fig. 1) to stand and to lower clutch lever with spring clips. 4. Be sure stand remains bolted securely to saw frame to prevent it from passing stop and damaging saw blade. IMPORTANT! This is a cordwood saw, guaranteed to be free from defects and properly tempered. It is not guaranteed against breakage of teeth, as this is under the control of the operator. MOUNTING SAW IN HORIZONTAL POSITION 1. Remove one screw from arbor holder clamp (5, Fig. 1) and insert arbor in vertical position as illustrated in Figure 1. 2. Raise idler bracket (6, Fig. 1) until parallel to arbor shaft and tighten carriage bolt. 3. Remove key from small bag attached to pulley, and insert in pulley key way under set screw. 4. Place pulley on arbor shaft so that it lines up with idler pulley; then tighten set screw. 5. Place A-56 Special Belt (7, Fig. 1) over arbor pulley and over middle groove of engine pulley so belt rides on idler pulley inside of belt support, (A, Fig. I) as shown. 6. Tighten set collar (8, Fig. 1) on adjusting screw assembly and turn tightener screw (9, Fig. 1) until belt is tight; then lock with nut (10, Fig. I). 7. Remove left hand hex nut and flange from end of arbor shaft. Place saw blade as shown in Figure 1 over end of arbor and secure it with flange and hex nut. To insure tightness tap wrench with hammer. When the saw is in horizontal position mounted on the Model FA 2V2 H.P. or Model VA 5 H.P. tractors, the following is recommended. Remove the ratchet pawl assembly (Part 152009) from the ratchet cage. This will afford ease of maneuverability and operation, particularly in close work or in felling trees. Ratchet pawl assembly may be replaced when cutting brush, bucking, limbing, or in use with the tilting frame. NOTE: Belt leaving idler pulley should enter arbor pulley on a straight line. If belt tends to run off top of idler pulley tilt idler bracket slightly forward; if belt tends to run off bottom of idler pulley tilt idler bracket slightly backward. Slot in bottom of idler lever is provision for lowering and raising of idler pulley. BRUSH AND LOO SAW TO MOUNT SAW IN VERTICAL POSITION (See Figure 2) 1. Follow same steps for mounting saw in horizontal position except arbor should be placed in horizontal position by loosening arbor prop nut il, Fig, 2) and swinging saw blade into vertical position. V-belt runs on outside of belt support (A) as shown. 2. Arbor pulley should be lined up with middle groove of engine pulley as illustrated in Figure 2. 3. Tighten set collar (2, Fig. 2) on adjusting screw assembly and turn tightener screw (3, Fig. 2) until belt is tight; then lock with nut (4, Fig. 2). ARTICLE 990034 WITH ARTICLE 990032 ARTICLE 990032 Figure 2 — Saw Mounted in Vertical Position TO ATTACH CRADLE TO SAW (See Figure 3) 1. Place saw in vertical position as shown in Figure 2. 2. Loosen arbor clamp bolts and remove arbor. Place cradle tube (1, Fig. 3) in arbor clamp (2, Fig. 3) keeping cradle as far to the right as possible and tighten clamp bolts. See Figure 3. 3. Place arbor (3, Fig. 3) in arbor clamp (4, Fig. 3} on top of cradle and adjust arbor pulley to line up with middle groove of engine pulley. 4. Remove cradle holder (5, Fig. 3} from cradle and attach to saw frame at (6, Fig. 3) and to cradle frame at (7, Fig. 3). 5. Place v-belt over pulleys and raise stand; turn belt tightener screw until belt is tight and lock with nut. Figure 3 — Saw Mounted on Cradle OPERATION 1. To raise or lower stand (4, Fig. 2) hold down tractor handles slightly and move left clutch lever to the rear or forward. Stand must be raised when using saw in horizontal position (Fig. 1). Lower stand when using saw in vertical position (Fig. 2) except when using cradle. 2. To use cradle place wood on support arms (8, Fig. 3). Move support arms past saw, being sure to keep hands to the right of the extension (9, Fig. 3), well away from the saw blade. 3. Belt tension should be varied according to material being cut. It should be just tight enough to, prevent slipping.
