  • Page 10 #1 – INSPECTION Take all of the parts out of the shipping crate and lay them out. Check for any damage or missing parts. #2 – TRACKS Assemble track system and secure loosely with provided nuts & bolts. It is important not to fully tighten the bolts at this stage.
  • Page 11 Assemble log dog pieces as shown below and use waterproof grease on threaded handle and “T” handle. Attach assembly to the track using the provided nuts & bolts and tighten. Clamp for Clamp for small large log logs & cants Attach log dog assembly to track as shown above with the 4 nuts and bolts provided. Note that there are various locations along the track where this assembly can be bolted.
  • Page 12 Lay the above carriage pieces out. Assemble round vertical post (shown on left) to wheel assembly using the two bolts and back plate. Repeat same step for the square vertical post assembly (shown on right). Place a moving blanket on the shipping pallet that the sawmill crate was strapped to. The blanket will prevent the blade guard covers from becoming scratched.
  • Page 13 Insert the rear square frame into the carriage base until it bottoms out on the pulley bolts. Tighten the four 16mm bolts (shown in right image) to secure it in place. Adjustme nt nut Lock the cam handles on both the round and square post to prevent the head from moving when it is stood up in the coming steps.
  • Page 14 Install the nut on the inside of the round post to secure the pulley. Using a 16mm wrench to hold the nut, tighten the bolt. Insert the bolts into the back plate as shown in above left image. Align the square post holes with the corresponding black top cross support holes.
  • Page 15 Slide the scale indicator over the square rod and tighten. Install the cables to the pulleys as shown above. Attach the cable bolts to the brackets on the sawmill head as shown above. It is ideal to lower the sawmill head all the way down to the deck.
  • Page 16 Using a tape measure, take a measurement from the blade to the top of the log bunk on both the left and right side. The distance should be equal on both sides. If it isn’t, you need to adjust the cable bolts (shown on page 13) up or down to raise or lower the head on one side until themeasurement is consistent on both sides.
  • Page 17 Use the tap at the water tank to adjust the liquid flow by turning the screw left and right. Attach the four track sweepers to the frame so that the steel brush reaches the bottom of the groove in the carriage wheels.
  • Page 18 Push the saw head up and down the track system to ensure that the width of the track allows for the saw head to move freely. If it binds, the “L” rails will need to be set further or closer together to achieve a consistent width along the entire track system.
  • Page 19: Sawmillset-Upprocedures

    SAWMILL SET-UP PROCEDURES #1 – BELT TENSION To check the belt tension, with a tension meter, deflect the belt up and down with 60N force. There should be no more than 5-6mm of deflection in both directions. If the belt deflects more than this, it will need to be tightened as described below.

  • Page 21 The alignment bolt can now be turned to change the angle of the bandwheel and track the blade. To move the blade more rearward on the bandwheel, this bolt will need to be turned clockwise. Alternatively, turning the bolt in the counter-clockwise direction would force the blade to run more forward on the bandwheel.
