Sawmill Operation
4.
To engage the blade, pull the clutch/brake lever down until it locks in the down position.
This engages the drive mechanism, releases the blade brake, and increases the engine
speed to full throttle.
5.
To disengage the blade, raise the clutch/brake lever to the up position. This disengages
the drive belt, engages the blade brake, and returns the engine to idle.
LT30HD Super and LT40HD Rev. G1.00 - G2.04 only:
See Figure 4-8.
The clutch handle was equipped with a detent pin originally provided to
lock the handle in neutral when adjusting the drive belts and/or brake strap. To prevent
possible injury caused by unintended use of the detent pin (such as using the pin to
enable the blade to be spun by hand during blade tracking), the pin should be removed.
Refer to bulletin #970053LR for detent removal instructions.
WARNING!
Do not spin the blade wheels by hand.
Spinning the blade wheels by hand may result in seri-
ous injury.
