Remote Operation SECTION 1 REMOTE OPERATION The Remote Option provides remote operation for all sawmill functions from a single location at the front of the sawmill. The option includes all cables with traveling guide chain, a remote electrical power junction box, a front-mounted sawmill control box, and a remote clutch mechanism with switch to engage the blade from the remote location.
Machine and Site Preparation Machine and Site Preparation The Wood-Mizer LT70 Remote-ST sawmill has to be prepared to work after transportation. Due to the weight, it has to be transported with auxiliary carrier equipment and in accordance with general safety rules.

Remote Operation Preparing for Remote Operation Preparing for Remote Operation Set up the sawmill as instructed in your sawmill operator’s manual. CAUTION! Moving the saw carriage before removing the cable chain support may cause damage to the chain. Also, moving the saw carriage when the chain is frozen can damage the chain.
Remote Operation Remote Sawmill Operation Remote Sawmill Operation See Figure 1-5. All sawmill controls operate exactly as described in your sawmill operator’s manual except the clutch/brake. Instead of pulling a handle to engage the blade, push the toggle switch on the control panel up. Hold the switch up until the clutch motor stops completely.
Remote Operation Preparing The Remote Option For Towing Preparing The Remote Option For Towing 1. After placing the saw head in its traveling position, engage the remote clutch switch to engage the drive belts. This will keep the engine from bouncing while towing the sawmill. 2.
Remote Operation Cold Weather Operation Cold Weather Operation If the sawmill is operated or stored in freezing conditions, the cable chain may freeze. Before moving the saw carriage, check to see if the chain is frozen: 1. Remove the chain support bracket (See Section 1.3).
Remote Operation Hydraulic Control Operation Hydraulic Control Operation The hydraulic control levers become operational when the contacts at the bottom of the carriage touch the power strip on the frame tube. The hydraulic control levers will only work when the cutting head is close enough to the front end of the mill to touch the power strip.
Page 13
Remote Operation Hydraulic Control Operation Use the hydraulic control levers to get the mill ready to load a log. DANGER! Keep all persons out of the path of moving equipment and logs when operating sawmill or loading and turning logs. Failure to do so will result in serious injury. 1.
Remote Operation Loading, Turning, And Clamping Logs Loading, Turning, And Clamping Logs CAUTION! Before loading a log, be sure the cutting head is moved far enough forward so the log does not hit it. Damage to the sawmill may result. CAUTION! Be sure the pivot rails, turning arm, clamp, and toe boards are below bed level before loading a log onto...
Page 15
Remote Operation Loading, Turning, And Clamping Logs To Turn Logs 1. Raise the side supports. 2. Raise the turner lever to engage the log turner arm. 3. Spin the log against the side supports until it is turned the way you want it for the first cut. 4.
Page 16
Remote Operation Loading, Turning, And Clamping Logs Depending on the log length, front and rear clamp (min. log length - 3.5m), or main clamp together with front or rear one (with logs shorter than 3.5m) can be used . They allow to find optimal position of the log on the bed, and prevent distortions during cutting.
Maintenance & Troubleshooting Clean The Cable Chain & Support Tray SECTION 2 MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING Clean The Cable Chain & Support Tray As you operate the sawmill, be aware of any pieces of debris that may fall on the cable chain and/or support tray.
Maintenance & Troubleshooting Cable Chain Repair Cable Chain Repair If a component of the cable chain breaks or is missing, replace the component. CAUTION! Do not operate the remote sawmill if the cable chain is damaged or components of the chain are missing. The chain components are interlocking and continued operation will cause more damage to the chain.
Maintenance & Troubleshooting Cable Chain And Support Tray Alignment Cable Chain And Support Tray Alignment During each sawmill setup, check the alignment of the cable chain and the support tray: 1. The chain should travel in a straight line. Traveling at an angle will cause the chain to prematurely wear and break.
Page 20
Maintenance & Troubleshooting Cable Chain And Support Tray Alignment 2. The chain support tray must be level to prevent premature wear of the chain. Use a square to check the angle of the tray to the sawmill frame. Check at several locations along the length of the tray.
Maintenance & Troubleshooting Board Removal Bumper Adjustment Board Removal Bumper Adjustment See Figure 2-4. Lightly compress the lower springs using the nuts shown below (A). Make sure the bumper roller is below the bed rail level. FIG. 2-4 Maintenance & Troubleshooting ROdoc070822...
