SAWMILL ALIGNMENT
5.19 Blade Height Scale Adjustment
After the entire sawmill has been aligned and all adjustments made, check that the blade
height scale indicates the true distance from the blade to the bed rails.
1.
Move the saw head so the blade is positioned directly above one of the bed rails. Mea-
sure from the bottom edge on a down-set tooth of the blade to the top of the bed rail
(or stainless steel sleeve if applicable).
See Figure 5-31.
2.
View the blade height scale with eyes level with the indicator.
3.
Loosen the indicator bracket mounting bolts and adjust the bracket until the indicator is
aligned with the correct mark on the scale. Retighten the bracket mounting bolts.
For example, if the measurement from blade to bed rail was 375 mm (14.76"), make sure
the indicator reads 375 mm (14.76") on the scale.
