USE CAUTION WHEN WORKING WITH HEAVY LOGS
WARNING! Always make sure log is clamped securely before sawing. Failure
to do so may result in serious injury or death.
AUTOMATIC BOARD RETURN SAFETY
DANGER! Keep all persons out of the path of returning boards. Failure to do
so will result in serious injury.
WARNING! The automatic board return is intended to assist a second
operator in removing boards quickly. Do not use the board return when
operating the sawmill alone. Serious injury, death or damage to the equipment
may result.
WARNING! Never use the board return table as a platform to stand on.
This table is designed and intended to assist in the removal of boards only.
Standing on the table may result in serious injury.
POWER FEED SYSTEM SAFETY
DANGER! If leaving the blade engaged for maximum production rates, make
sure the off-bearer stays out of the path of the blade. Failure to do so will result
in serious injury or death.
WARNING! Be sure the power feed switch is in the neutral position before
turning the key switch to the #1, #2 or #3 position. This prevents accidental
carriage movement which may cause serious injury or death.
GENERAL TRAILER SAFETY
DANGER! Be sure that the hitch and the safety cable are secured before
towing the sawmill. The safety cable automatically operates the trailer
handbrake lever in case the hitch should become disengaged. Failure to do so
may result in serious personal injury and/or severe machine damage.
DANGER! Make sure all light connections have been made and are working
properly before towing the sawmill. Failure to do so may result in serious
personal injury and/or severe machine damage.
CAUTION! The saw head will hit the spring-loaded ramp stops when adjusted
for low cuts. Remove the loading ramps before sawing to prevent damage to
the saw head and/or blade guide arm.
