Board Return
WARNING!
The automatic board return is intended to assist a second
operator in removing boards quickly. Do not use the board return when
operating the sawmill alone. Serious injury, death or damage to the
equipment may result.
WARNING!
Never use the board return table as a platform to stand on.
This table is designed and intended to assist in the removal of boards
only. Standing on the table may result in serious injury.
The sawmill is equipped with a board return system. This system consists of arms on the
saw head and a board return table to catch the board as it is removed from the log. Use of
the board return not recommended with material shorter than 8 foot.
When the blade reaches the end of the log, the arms will drop down to catch the board
and drag it back toward the operator as the saw head is returned.
DANGER!
Keep all persons out of the path of returning boards. Failure
to do so will result in serious injury.
Boards may not always return in the same path or location. If a board returns in a manner
that does not allow the sawyer or off-bearer to maintain control, it may be necessary to
stop the reverse motion of the saw head.
When the board return is to be used, a second person is required to remove the board as
it is returned. DO NOT attempt to use the board return feature when sawing alone.
