SECTION 3 MAINTENANCE
This section lists the maintenance procedures that need to be performed on LX450 sawmills.
WARNING! Always disconnect and lock out power supply before
performing any maintenance work, cleaning or servicing the sawmill.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury.
There are two maintenance procedures at the end of this section: Short Maintenance Schedule
and Maintenance Log. The Short Maintenance Schedule lists procedures that need to be performed
every 4, 8 or 25 hours. The Maintenance Log lists procedures that need to be performed every
50, 100, 200 or 1000 hours. Keep track of the machine maintenance by filling in the machine hours
and the date you perform each procedure.
This symbol identifies the interval (hours of operation) which each maintenance procedure should
be performed.
Be sure to refer to option and motor manuals for other maintenance procedures.
