The following setup procedure should be performed whenever the sawmill is moved or reassembled.
If sawing problems occur and misalignment is suspected, see
SECTION 6 for complete alignment
instructions.
1.
Adjust the frame legs so the sawmill appears level. If sawmill is on soft ground, use shims under the legs if
necessary.
2.
Run a string from the front bed rail to the rear bed rail near the operator’s side of the frame. Place identical
spacers between the string and the front and rear bed rails. Measure the distance between the string and the
other bed rails. Adjust the frame legs until all bed rails measure the same distance from the string.
3.
Loosen the auxiliary bed rail bolts and adjust the rail so it is the same distance from the string as the main
bed rails. Retighten the bolts.
