the motor body (fan guard). If the rotation direction is incorrect, invert
the phases in the phase inverter in the power socket (electric box).
Setting the phases in the phase inverter correctly will ensure correct
rotation directions of all sawmill motors.
WARNING! In case of a blade or drive belt brake, wait until all rotating
parts are completely stop. Failure to do so may result in serious injury.
DANGER! It is recommended that a 30mA Ground Fault Interrupter
(GFI) be used.
Sawmills are only partially aligned at the factory. Some assemblies need to be aligned by the user
before first usage of the sawmill.
Assemblies aligned at the factory:
Blade drive belt tension;
Blade wheels (in vertical and horizontal planes);
Blade guide arm alignment - See Section 6.5;
Blade guides - See Section 6.6;
Blade Height Scale - See Section 6.12;
The following setup procedure should be performed whenever the sawmill is moved or reassembled.
If sawing problems occur and misalignment is suspected, see See SECTION 6
for complete alignment
instructions.
1. Adjust the frame legs so the sawmill appears level. If sawmill is on soft ground, use shims under the legs
if necessary.
2. Run a string from the front bed rail to the rear bed rail near the operator’s side of the frame. Place identical
spacers between the string and the front and rear bed rails. Measure the distance between the string and the
other bed rails. Adjust the frame legs until all bed rails measure the same distance from the string.
3. Loosen the auxiliary bed rail bolts and adjust the rail so it is the same distance from the string as the main bed
rails. Retighten the bolts.
