SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
THE SAFETY EQUIPMENT OF THE BAND SAWMILL
WARNING! Risk of serious injury.
Read the safety instructions for the sawmill in its user manual, 0458-395-5301, before using the machine. Pay particular attention to the safety distance for other persons than the operator [Illustration 1] as the automation of the machine increases the risk of injuries.
WARNING! Never use the machine if the safety equipment is defective.
The safety equipment must be checked and maintained.
Here is a description of the safety features of the Smart Set control, and their functions.
Emergency stop on the control unit On the control unit there is an emergency stop that shuts off both the control panel and the engine.
OPERATOR
WARNING! Whenever the machine is used, approved personal protective equipment must always be used.
Persons under the age of 18 may not work with the band sawmill or handle band blades.
Never work with the machine or handle band blades if you are tired, if you have consumed alcohol or if you are taking medication that can impair your vision, judgement, reaction times, mobility, alertness or otherwise cause negative side effects.
THE WORKSITE

START AND STOP
START
1. Open the fuel valve by moving the fuel control lever to the right until it reaches the position ”ON”.
2. To start a cold engine, move the choke control lever to closed position (the control lever in its left position). To start a hot engine, leave the choke control lever in its open position (the control lever in its right position).
3. Turn the ignition key to the ”ON” position and start the engine with the key.
4. With the software running, press the start button at the same time as the enabling switch button is being pressed down.
5. This brings the engine up to its operating speed and the band blade starts rotating.
6. If the choke is in its closed position, gradually move the control lever towards its open position as the enging gets hotter.
STOP
You stop the band blade by releasing the control lever or the enabling switch button. Then the band blade will stop and the engine will go to idle. After that, turn off the engine by turning the ignition key to the”OFF” position, and then close the fuel valve.
EMERGENCY STOP
Activate the emergency stop by pressing the emergency stop button. The emergency stop has to be reset after it has been used.

FUNCTIONS
The control unit
The control unit of the Logosol Smart Set has a display, a set of programs, setting keys, an enabling switch button and a control lever. To use a function you select the desired one on the control panel. Then, to be able to execute the command, the enabling switch button has to be pressed down at the same time as the operation is carried out by the control lever. If the enabling switch button is released, the machine will stop.

The control lever of the Smart Set control unit is progressive, i.e. it performs operations at an increasing rate depending on how far from the centre it is pushed.
Enabling switch button
The enabling switch button is a safety function. It is superior to the control unit and has to be kept pressed down if the machine is to be activated.
The control lever is only used in the directions forward/back.

Step mode is two adjustable modes that enable you to quickly repeat a preset value of the saw cut.
Absolute measurements means that the display will show the distance between the bottom of the sawblade and the top of the log bed.

MEASUREMENT UNIT
CAL / Back
The 0 key creates a zero point for the position of the sawhead. The value shown on the display will then start out from this point.
The display can show measurements in inches or millimetres. To choose measurement unit you press the key inch/mm.
This key activates the calibration function of the machine.

FUNCTIONS
Calibration
At each start-up, the machine asks for the measurement between the sawblade and the log bed. If the value shown on the display does not agree with the value on the machine scale, the calibration value has been changed and the machine has to be recalibrated. This operation is carried out in the calibration mode.
CALIBRATION
If you, during operation, suspect that the value on the display does not agree with the actual position of the sawblade, you can use the Cal key to put the machine in the calibration mode. The Cal key is pressed down to start the calibration. Then, you move the sawblade with the control lever until it comes to the calibration value 100 mm from the log bed. Be careful when measuring the position of the saw blade. The precision when positioning the saw blade will directly reect the accuracy of the dimensions of the sawn timber.
100MM
One tip is to put a mark for the calibration position on the bogie leg after your rst calibration. This will facilitate when making rough adjustments when it is time for the next calibration.

FUNCTIONS
CANCEL COMMAND
The calibration key has two functions; it also works as a command for cancelling a selected operation. Pressing this button returns the machine to standby mode.
ENABLING SWITCH BUTTON
The enabling switch button is the big button located below the control lever to the right of the control panel. The enabling switch is connected to all the functions of the machine and is to be regarded as a lock between the keypad and the control lever. To execute the selected command, the enabling switch button has to be kept pressed down.

FUNCTIONSFUNCTIONS
STEP MODE
Step mode is two adjustable modes that enable you to quickly repeat a preset value of the saw cut. When you use Step mode, the machine remembers where the sawhead was positioned when the last cut was made. This means that the sawhead will be lowered to the position of the last cut plus the selected value. The movements are kerf-compensated, i.e. if you use a preset value of 25 mm, the sawn board will be 25 mm. The saw head has then actually moved 25 mm + 3 mm = a kerf-compensated, 25 mm board.
SETTING STEP MODE
Set the Step mode by pressing down one of the step keys. This has to be done with the Smart Set in its standby mode. Keep the sawing dimension key pressed down and then enter the desired value using the control lever. The value will be shown on the display next to the key to which the relevant command is connected.

STEP MODE
HOLD
USING STEP MODE
The Step mode is activated by pressing one of the preset step keys. The value will then be shown on the display. To activate the command, you push the control lever forward. Now, the sawhead is lowered down to the position of the previous cut plus the selected value. This means that you can make a cut, raise the sawhead to be able to bring it back over the sawn board, and then use the step function to move the sawhead and cut a new board with exactly the same measurements as the last one.
TURNING OFF THE SMART SET
When the work is nished, the machine is switched off by pressing the emergency stop button on the top of the control unit.

FUNCTIONS
UP / DOWN
The Up / Down key is used for activating the ability to move the sawhead vertically with the help of the control lever. In the basic mode, the position is shown as a value on the dispaly. This value shows the distance between the sawblade and the log bed.

FUNCTIONS
SAWING DIMENSIONS
The Smart Set interface can show different sawing dimensions and units to facilitate for the user in different situations. The default setting of the interface is showing an absolute measurement between the sawblade and the log bed in millimetres.
ABSOLUTE MEASUREMENTS
The Smart Set interface initially shows the distance between the log bed and the bottom of the sawblade. The selected measurement is shown in the box called ABS on the display.
RELATIVE MEASUREMENTS
The 0 key creates a new zero point for the log bed position. From this zero point, a new relative measurement is shown for the posi­tion of the log bed. If the sawblade is raised from this selected point, a negative value is shown, and if the sawblade is lowered a positive value is shown. On the display, the selected value is shown with the symbol 0. In this mode, the kerf is compensated manually.
If the saw blade position is raised from the set zero point, the value shown on the display is negative.
