CAUTIONS FOR SAWMILL SETUP
WARNING!
Do not set up the mill on ground with more than a 10
degree incline. If setup on an incline is necessary, put blocks under
one side of the mill or dig out areas for the legs to keep mill level.
Setting up the mill on an incline could cause it to tip over, resulting
in serious personal injury.
WARNING!
The sawmill weighs 1100 lbs. The center of gravity of
the carriage is off-center toward the operator side. The higher the
saw head from the bed frame, the more easily the mill can be
tipped toward the operator side. A minimum of three people (four
recommended) is required to safely load or unload the sawmill
from a pickup truck.
WARNING!
Keep all persons out of the area between the frame
rails while loading and unloading the sawmill. Failure to do so may
result in serious injury or death.
WARNING!
Because the sawmill can easily rotate and tip over
when lifted, do not lift the sawmill using a ropes, cables or chains,
etc. Doing so may result in machine damage, serious injury or
death.
