To ensure good operation of the sawmill, it is important that the cross
bunk and the log support are at right angles to each other. Adjust this by
turning the adjusting handle located at the lower part of the log support.
Check the angle with a set square.

To prevent the drive belt from slipping on the
pulley, the drive belt has to be correctly tensioned.
The belt tensioner pulley assembly can be rotated
around its lower bolting. Tension the belt until
you have reached the same values at the tension
checking point as in the illustration to the right.

To ensure that the scale on the sawhead crank
works correctly, it has to be calibrated. This is done
by lowering the sawhead to its lowest position and
then loosening the adjusting plate of the crank.
Now, raise the sawhead until the pointer in the
crank tube is aligned with a number on the crank
scale. It does not matter what number it is, as long
as it is aligned with the pointer. Then, tighten the
bolting. Finish the adjustment by turning the adjust-
ing bolts on the chains until the sawhead rests on
the stops in the front legs of the sawcarriage. Be
careful to adjust exactly equally much on both sides
to keep the blade parallel to the bed.
