Then as the carriers pass "around the sprocket '3 wheels 20 onto a horizontal plane, the rollers '48 and 58. entering'the guidewayswill p0- sition "the carriers rigidly inthe-line of feed and actingthrough the clamping levers will depress the clamping jaws still further to takeflupthe yield inf-the spring pressedplunger 54 so that the'rafteris held rigidly positionedinthe carrier." The rafter is now carried past the saws which are adjusted first to cut simultaneously the ends of the 5 1 timber at the desired angle and then to make firstione and'then the other cutof the'notch.
Preferably the saws and carriers are so arranged and spaced that in regular operatlon of the machine, two saws Wlll always be cutting i first the end cutting saws on the; same rafter, and then the notching saws on v I 7 Thus a steady and uniform load is provided, enabling the machine different rafters.
to operate with a minimum of power and at maximum speed. As the carriers-ride over theQdriving sprocket wheels atj the. rear of the machine,the clamps are opened permitting the finished rafters toslide'off onto. a
chute or other appropriate receptacle while the carriers return to repeat the cycle.
