|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Safe Operation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### General Rules
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Never cut above shoulder height
|
||||||
|
- Keep firm footing at all times
|
||||||
|
- Be aware of kickback zone (top quarter of bar tip)
|
||||||
|
- Never cut with the tip of the bar
|
||||||
|
- Keep chain brake engaged when walking
|
||||||
|
- Two hands on saw at all times when cutting
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Felling Trees
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> [!danger] Advanced Skill
|
||||||
|
> Tree felling requires specific training. Do not attempt without proper instruction.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Assess fall zone (2x tree height)
|
||||||
|
- Check for hazards (power lines, structures, other trees)
|
||||||
|
- Plan escape route (45° back from fall direction)
|
||||||
|
- Use proper notch and back cut technique
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Kickback Prevention
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Kickback occurs when the chain at the tip catches and throws the saw back. Prevent by:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Never let tip contact anything
|
||||||
|
- Keep chain sharp and properly tensioned
|
||||||
|
- Don't overreach
|
||||||
|
- Use low-kickback chain if available
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## After Use
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Engage chain brake
|
||||||
|
2. Let engine idle, then turn off
|
||||||
|
3. Allow to cool before storage
|
||||||
|
4. Clean saw body and bar
|
||||||
|
5. Check chain tension
|
||||||
|
6. Top up bar oil
|
||||||
|
7. Store in case or with bar cover
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Maintenance
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Task | Frequency |
|
||||||
|
|------|-----------|
|
||||||
|
| Check chain tension | Before each use |
|
||||||
|
| Clean air filter | After each use |
|
||||||
|
| Sharpen chain | When cutting slows |
|
||||||
|
| Check spark plug | Monthly |
|
||||||
|
| Replace chain | When worn |
|
||||||
|
| Professional service | Annually |

|
## Safe Operation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### General Rules
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Keep both hands on handles at all times
|
||||||
|
- Never cut above shoulder height without proper support
|
||||||
|

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Cutting Technique
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Start from bottom, work up
|
||||||
|
- Use sweeping motion along hedge face
|
||||||
|
- Keep blade at slight angle for flat top
|
||||||
|
- Make multiple light passes rather than forcing through thick growth
|
||||||
|
- For sides, angle blade slightly upward

|
> 2. Confirm boiler has electrical power
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Step-by-Step Startup
|

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**3. LIGHT the paper**
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
![[boiler-front-view.png]]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| # | Component | Purpose |
|
||||||
|
|---|-----------|---------|
|
||||||
|
| 1 | **Loading door handle** | Opens door to add wood |
|
||||||
|
| 2 | **Thermometer** | Shows boiler water temperature |
|
||||||
|
| 3 | **Bypass lever** | Push to open, pull to close (see below) |
|
||||||
|
| 4 | **Loading door** | Add wood here (top front) |
|
||||||
|
| 5 | **Temperature knob** | Left = cooler, Right = hotter |
|
||||||
|
| 6 | **Secondary air adjustment** | Fine-tune combustion (2 screws) |
|
||||||
|
| 7 | **Ash door handle** | Opens door to access ash pan |
|
||||||
|
| 8 | **Main switch** | On/Off - orange light when on |
|
||||||
|
| 9 | **Primary air adjustment** | Controls main air flow |
|
||||||
|
| 10 | **Flame sight glass** | View fire through ash door |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Bypass Lever Positions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| OPEN (for lighting/reloading) | CLOSED (normal operation) |
|
||||||
|
|:-----------------------------:|:-------------------------:|
|
||||||
|
| ![[flue-open.png\|150]] | ![[flue-closed.png\|150]] |
|
||||||
|
| Push lever **away** from you | Pull lever **toward** you |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Reloading Wood (Fire Already Burning)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **PUSH** the bypass lever (opens bypass)
|
||||||
|
2. Open loading door
|
||||||
|
3. Add wood **moderately** - prefer 3-4 small loads over 2 large ones
|
||||||
|
4. Close loading door
|
||||||
|
5. **PULL** bypass lever toward you (closes bypass)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> [!tip] Mid-season advice
|
||||||
|
> Don't overload the boiler, especially in mild weather. Smaller, more frequent loads are better.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Temperature Adjustment
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Boiler Water Temperature
|
||||||
|
- Turn the **temperature adjustment knob**:
|
||||||
|
- **Left** = decrease (-)
|
||||||
|
- **Right** = increase (+)
|
||||||
|
- **Keep temperature at or above 70°C** to prevent tar buildup and condensation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Room/Radiator Temperature
|
||||||
|
- Adjust the **mixing valve** on your heating circuit (not on the boiler itself)
|
||||||
|
- Turn gradually from minimum toward maximum until comfortable
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Air Controls (Fine-Tuning)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Primary Air (Main Adjustment)
|
||||||
|
- **Air control adjustment knob** on front
|
||||||
|
- Left = less air (slower burn)
|
||||||
|
- Right = more air (faster burn)
|
||||||
|
- Goal: maintain glowing ember bed
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Secondary Air (Combustion Quality)
|
||||||
|
- Two adjustment screws near ash door
|
||||||
|
- **Right** = decrease air
|
||||||
|
- **Left** = increase air
|
||||||
|
- Adjust with ash door closed
|
||||||
|
- Check flame through sight glass - should be neither too weak nor too harsh
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Shutting Down the Boiler
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Press main switch to **STOP** position (orange light goes out)
|
||||||
|
2. **Keep doors open** to ventilate the interior
|
||||||
|
3. Allow to cool completely
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> [!warning] Frost Protection
|
||||||
|
> If the building may be exposed to freezing temperatures, contact a qualified professional to add antifreeze or drain the heating circuit.

|
||||||
|
|-------|----------|
|
||||||
|
| Not cooling | Check power, check thermostat setting |
|
||||||
|
| Too cold/freezing food | Adjust temperature higher |
|
||||||
|
| Ice buildup | May need defrosting |
|
||||||
|
| Making noise | Normal operation sounds vs concerning sounds |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## During Power Outage
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Keep doors closed as much as possible
|
