If you are sawing in freezing temperatures, remove the water lube bottle from the sawmill when done
sawing and store it in a warm place. Blow any remaining water from the water lube hose.
To remove water from the water valve on LT70 sawmills, turn the key switch to accessory, turn the feed rate
knob down to ‘0’ and place the feed switch in the forward position. Blow any remaining water from the water
lube hose and valve. Return the forward/reverse switch to neutral and turn the key switch to off (#0).
NOTE:
If your sawmill is equipped with LubeMizer System, please refer to LubeMizer Operation Manual.
2.20 Preparing The Sawmill For Transportation
The Wood-Mizer trailer package for the LT70 sawmills makes transporting your sawmill easy and
convenient. To get your sawmill ready for towing, follow these instructions.
1.
Move the saw carriage to the front end of the sawmill. Raise the rear outriggers.
2.
Move the clamp to the main bed rail as close as possible.
CAUTION!
Move the hydraulic clamp and turner to provide maximum ground
clearance before towing. Failure to do so may result in damage to the sawmill.
3.
Move the carriage forward to the travel position over the bed rail. Position the hole in the saw head over the
travel rest pin.
4.
Secure the rest pin using locking pin.
