Sawdust Removal
WARNING!
Before performing service near moving parts such as
blades, pulleys, motors, belts and chains, first turn the key switch to
the OFF (#0) position and remove the key. If the key is turned on and
moving parts activated, serious injury may result.
Remove the excess sawdust from the blade wheel housings and sawdust chute every
blade change.
WARNING!
Always keep clear of exiting sawdust. Keep hands, feet
and any other objects away from the sawdust chute when operating
sawmill. Failure to do so may result in serious injury.
WARNING!
Always check to ensure the steel fingers inside the saw-
dust chute are in place before operating the sawmill. The steel fingers
have been designed to help prevent a broken blade or some other
object from becoming a projectile and exiting the sawdust chute. Fail-
ure to have these fingers in place may result in serious injury.
Remove all sawdust and debris from around the velocity fuse valves every 8 hours of
operation. The valves are located at the bottom of the log loader cylinders.
Remove sawdust buildup as necessary from the battery box lid and top rail cover.
CAUTION!
Failure to remove sawdust buildup from the battery box lid
and/or track rail cover could result in damage to these parts when the
saw head is lowered to its lowest position.
Remove sawdust and debris from grounding block along the bed rail and mast.
