Woodland Mills HM126, HM130 Manual

COMPATIBILITY

The battery mount kit is intended for owners of HM126 sawmills and HM130 sawmills without electric start who purchased a Power Head kit to raise and lower the sawhead.
Note: The battery is not included and will require charging. Gasoline engines without electric start do not utilize alternators that would automatically charge the battery. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the operator to charge the battery as required.

TOOLS REQUIRED

Collect the necessary tools prior to starting the assembly. Note that not all tools listed below are required to assemble the Power Head. Substitute tools as necessary based on availability.

ASSEMBLY

BATTERY MOUNT

The Battery Mount Kit includes a battery mount and battery box that will support and house a customer-supplied battery necessary to run the Power Head.

2020 AND NEWER HM126 SAWMILLS
On 2020 and newer HM126 sawmills, assemble the battery mount to the side of the engine mount on the back beam using the components listed below.

3x	M10 X 30 mm Hex Bolt
3x	M10 Lock Nut
6x	M10 Flat Washer
1x	Battery Support

Secure the battery mount to the engine mount using three (3) M10 X 30 mm hex bolts, six (6) M10 flat washers, and three (3) M10 lock nuts. Use the three (3) existing holes on the side of the engine mount.

2019 AND OLDER HM126 SAWMILLS/HM130 SAWMILLS WITHOUT ELECTRIC START
On 2019 and older HM126 sawmills—and HM130 sawmills without electric start—remove the belt tensioner lock nut and washer from the side of the engine mount.

3x	M10 X 30 mm Hex Bolt
3x	M10 Lock Nut
6x	M10 Flat Washer
1x	M10 Flat Washer (Thick)
1x	Battery Support
1x	11 mm Drill Bit

On 2019 and older HM126 sawmills — and HM130 sawmills without electric start—remove the belt tensioner lock nut and washer from the side of the engine mount. Discard the washer as it will be replaced.

In order to assemble the battery mount to the engine mount, three (3) holes must be drilled in the engine mount to bolt it on.
The engine mount varies in size/shape depending on the model year.

Hold the battery mount up against the side of the engine mount, ensuring the belt tensioner bolt protrudes through the slot. The top surfaces of both mounts should be in-line with a noticeable gap at the front to clear any welds.

Mark the three (3) holes in the locations shown above and drill using the 11 mm drill bit.

Use cutting oil when drilling holes for the battery mount or else the heat generated could ruin the drill bit and produce a rough surface finish.
Once the holes are drilled, secure the battery mount to the engine mount using three (3) M10 X 30 mm hex bolts, six (6) M10 flat washers, and three (3) M10 lock nuts.

Replace the washer originally used on the belt tensioner with the thick M10 flat washer that is provided with the battery mount kit.

The belt tension is still adjusted in the same manner as before. Refer to the sawmill manual.

BATTERY BOX

With the battery mount fully secured to the engine mount on the sawmill back beam, assemble the battery box base to the battery mount using the components listed below.

4x	M6 X 20 mm Hex Bolt
4x	M6 Lock Nut
4x	M6 Fender Washer
1x	Battery Box Base

Assemble the battery box base to the battery mount using four (4) M6 X 20 mm hex bolts, four (4) M6 fender washers, and four (4) M6 lock nuts.
