may result in serious injury.
WARNING! Always wear eye, ear, respiration, and foot protection as
well as safety clothing when operating the machine. Failure to do so
may result in serious injury.
WARNING! Secure all loose clothing and jewelry before operating the
sawmill. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death.
WARNING! Always make sure the log is clamped securely before
sawing. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death.
WARNING! Use ONLY water or alcohol solution with the water lube
system. Never use flammable fuels or liquids. If these types of liquids
are necessary to clean the blade, remove it and clean with a rag.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION! Be sure the log clamps are all the way down before loading
a log onto the bed. Failure to do so may result in machine damage.
CAUTION! Before loading a log, be sure the cutting head is moved far
enough forward so the log does not hit it. Failure to do so may result in
machine damage.
CAUTION! Do not try to force the saw head beyond its upper and
lower travel limits. Failure to do so may result in damage to the
up/down system.
CAUTION! Make sure the blade is stopped before returning the saw
head. This will not only prevent the blade from being pulled off and
ruined by a wood sliver, but also will increase the life of the blade.
CAUTION! The saw head may hit the loading ramp stops when
adjusted for low cuts. Remove the optional loading ramps before
sawing to prevent damage to the saw head.
CAUTION! Never clean the blade or blade wheels with a brush
or a scraper during sawmill operation.
CAUTION! Before installation of the blade, inspect it for damage and
cracks. Use properly sharpened blades only. Always handle the blade
with extreme caution. Use suitable carrier equipment for transporting
the blades.
CAUTION! The blade should be replaced every two hours of sawmill
operation.
CAUTION! Always wear gloves when handling the blade. Never grab
the blade with bare hands!
