SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
THE WORKSITE
WARNING! Never operate a band sawmill with
a petrol-powered engine in enclosed or poorly
ventilated areas. This can result in death due to
suffocation or carbon monoxide poisoning.
Only operate the band sawmill and handle band
blades in full daylight or under adequate lighting.
Keep the work area free from clutter, pets, children,
obstacles or other things that can distract the
operator.
Choose a worksite where the ground is hardpacked
and level, with plenty of space for the band sawmill,
a pile of logs and sawn timber. If possible, place
the band sawmill so that the sawdust blows away
from the operator. Set up the band sawmill on level
ground with at least 5 m of free space without any
obstacles around the equipment. If the band sawmill
is to be set up permanently, we recommend that
you support the rail frame with concrete plinths or
wooden blocks (15 cm x 15 cm) under each cross
bunk.
Always keep an ABC re extinguisher (min. 3 kg)
easily accessible at the worksite.
Always keep a fully-stocked rst-aid kit easily
accessible at the worksite.
MOVING THE BAND SAWMILL
WARNING! Risk of crush injuries.
Keep people and pets outside the 5 m danger area
around the machine while lifting and moving the
machine parts. Secure the load during transport.
The sawmill trailer may only be moved when the
sawhead is secured laterally and vertically on the
rails as described in this manual.
Securing the sawhead: Secure the sawhead as
described in the manual for your band sawmill, using the
supplied locking mechanism, before moving the sawmill.
