CAUTION! Do not overcharge the battery. Overcharging may reduce the
overall service life of the battery.
CAUTION! Be sure the battery is fully charged before transporting the
sawmill. If the battery is not fully charged, excessive vibration could reduce
the overall service life of the battery.
CAUTIONS FOR SAWMILL SETUP
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 the legs to keep mill level. Setting up the mill on an
incline could cause it to tip over. Failure to follow this will result in serious
injury or death.
WARNING! Keep all persons out of the area while loading and unloading
the sawmill. Failure to follow this may result in serious injury or death.
CHECK SAWMILL BEFORE OPERATION
DANGER! Make sure all guards and covers are in place and secured
before operating or towing the sawmill. Failure to follow this will result in
serious injury or death.
