SECTION 1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.1 Safety Symbols
These symbols call your attention to instructions concerning your personal safety. Be sure to
observe and follow these instructions.
DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING suggests a potentially hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION refers to potentially hazardous situations which, if not
avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury to persons
or equipment.
Warning stripes are placed on areas where a single decal would be
insufficient. To avoid serious injury, keep out of the path of any
equipment marked with warning stripes.
Before operating the LX50 sawmill, read the operator’s manual and all additional manuals provided
with the machine. Observe all safety instructions included in these manuals!
Always be sure that all safety decals are clean and readable. Replace immediately all damaged
safety decals to prevent personal injury or damage to the equipment. Contact Wood-Mizer Customer
Service or the Wood-Mizer distributor in your area to order a new decal.
IMPORTANT! It is always owner's responsibility to comply with all applicable federal, state and local
laws, rules and regulations regarding the ownership, operation and transport of your LX50 sawmill.
All Wood-Mizer owners are encouraged to become thoroughly familiar with these applicable laws
and comply with them fully while using the sawmill.
Always properly dispose of all sawing by-products, including sawdust and other debris, coolant, oil,
fuel, oil filters and fuel filters.
