When setting up the M7
directly on the ground:
The surface must be firm
and level enough that driving
a normal car on it would not be
a problem.
Fit a board under each pair
of legs using two M6 bolts for
each foot. The boards must be
of good quality, at least 50x150
mm (2” x 6”) and at least 2 m
(6.5 ft) long. The boards must
extend at least 0.5 m (1.6 ft)
beyond the long legs.
While the goal is to have the
M7 sawmill fully level, any tilt,
however slight, must not be
away from the operator as this
The M7 portable sawmill
may not tilt more than 5 °
from the horizontal in any
direction.
The saw may tip over if the
tilt is greater. The unit may
not be operated unless
the feet are fastened to
the oor or to boards as
described below.
The carriage may slide off
the guide rail if the tilt is
greater.
When bolting the M7 to
a concrete floor, asphalt
surface or similar, rigid
surface, a rubber underlay
should be placed under each
foot in order to prevent vibration
damage to the sawmill. Use
a reliable fastening system
between the feet and the
surface.
