SECTION 6 SAWMILL ALIGNMENT
6.1 Pre-Alignment Procedures
Periodically check the sawmill alignment and adjust if necessary. This chapter explains
how to align the entire sawmill. Care should be taken in performing these steps. Sawmill
alignment determines the accuracy and squareness of your cuts.
The sawmill alignment steps are:
1. Prepare the sawmill for alignment
2. Adjust the blade parallel to the bed rails
3. Adjust the blade guide arm parallel to the saw head brace
4. Align blade guides to the blade
5. Final Adjustments.
To insure accurate alignment, the sawmill frame must be level and a blade properly
installed.
See SECTION 3 Setup & Operation
for setup information.
6.2 Preparing The Sawmill For Alignment
Before performing the following alignment procedures, setup the mill on firm, level
ground. String the bed and adjust the legs so the frame is level ( See Section 3.1
).
