3.3 Level the bed
The tools needed are:
Shims
4 foot level or laser level
Lag bolts and washers
Socket and ratchet for lag bolts
Wooden skids, 4x4 or better
NOTE: It is important that the bed be level for the sawhead to travel smoothly over the rails.
1. Mount the saw bed on wooden skids for leveling and increasing the ground clearance.
A straight 4x4 or 4x6 are an ideal size for the wooden skids. If the skids
are not a solid one-piece section, make sure the seams of skids are
offset from the seams of the bed frame.
(See FIG. 3-5 .)
2. Use a 4-foot level (or laser level) to level the bed in all dimen-
sions. (See FIG. 3-6 .)
3. Adjust the bed for leveling by shimming under low spots.
