Put at least 3 "T" fence posts in the ground at a 45 degree angle. they should go in at least 2 feet in clay, or 3 feet in softer earth. These should be placed so they will hold against movement toward the tractor, and upward movement from the belt pulling on the pulleys. An additional stake should be placed in front of the frame to prevent the frame from turning toward the belt side. Decide where to place the saw that will allow it to stay put while using it, and will not have the stakes becoming an issue later (or pull them out when done for the season) Make sure the platform that allows the logs to enter the blade is free to move and counter balanced to make it easy to control. Springs may be weak or missing. It should be easy to position logs so that safe hand and arm motion can be used. A guard from a curved steel strap that prevents the back side and top of the blade from being easily touched is a great idea. Finding an old farmer to assist with the project might also gain you a great friend and possibly a welder to assist in the setup. Jim
