WARNING! Do not spin the blade wheels by hand. Spinning the blade
wheels by hand may result in serious injury.
1.2 Sawmill Setup
WARNING! Chock the trailer wheels to prevent movement before
unhitching it from the towing vehicle. Failure to do so may result in
serious injury or death.
WARNING! Failure to put front outrigger down before moving cutting
head from the rest position may result in serious injury.
WARNING! Securely fasten the feet of a stationary sawmill to the floor
before operating the sawmill. Failure to do so may result in serious
injury or death.
WARNING! Always make sure the trailer is supporting the sawmill
frame when operating a sawmill with adjustable outriggers. Failure to
do so may result in serious injury or death. The adjustable outriggers
are intended to support the saw frame with assistance from the trailer.
WARNING! Do not set up the mill on ground with more than a 10
degree incline. If setup on an incline is necessary, put blocks under
one side of the mill or dig out areas for outrigger legs to keep mill level.
Setting up the mill on an incline could cause it to tip over, resulting in
serious personal injury.
CAUTION! Changes in temperature could cause increased pressure in
the blade tensioner and loss of fluid from the gauge. Release the blade
tension when the mill is not in use to avoid damage to the tensioner.
1.3 Sawmill Operation
IMPORTANT! The sawmill is intended for sawing wood only. See
Section 1.7 for log size capacities of the machine.
IMPORTANT! The operator of the sawmill should get adequate train-
ing in the operation and adjustment of the machine.
DANGER! Make sure all guards and covers are in place and secured
before operating or towing the sawmill. Failure to do so may result in
serious injury.
Be sure the blade housing and pulley covers are in place and secure.
Use the safety retainer pin and cable to fasten blade housing covers.
DANGER! Always keep hands away from moving bandsaw blade.
Failure to do so will result in serious injury.
DANGER! Stay clear of the area between the trailer axle and saw
