SECTION 3 SAWMILL SETUP
3.1 Stationary Sawmill Setup
Prepare a firm, level area where the sawmill can be anchored. There should be enough
room around the sawmill for operators, sawdust removal, log loading and board removal.
A cement pad with 5/8” diameter anchor bolts is recommended. The cement pad should
be rated to support 6350 lbs./sq.ft. at each sawmill foot position.
See Form #847
for stationary sawmill foot anchor locations. See Form #359 for stationary
sawmill with bed extension foot anchor locations. See Form #1084
for complete electric
sawmill installation instructions.
LT70DCS Only: Replace the hitch with the provided front stationary DCS leg assembly
as shown below. Reinstall the guide cable to the leg bracket.
NOTE: Make sure the unit is level before securing. It IS possible to twist the mill frame by
jacking one foot higher than the others.
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.
