Setup & Operation
2.10 Clutch/Brake Operation
1.
Clear any loose objects from the area of the blade, motor, and drive belt.
2.
Make sure the clamp and side supports are adjusted below the level of your first few cuts.
3.
Start the engine or motor as instructed in the engine manual.
DANGER!
Never operate the sawmill without all guards
and covers in place and secured.
Be sure the blade housing and pulley covers are in place
and secure before starting the engine or motor. If applica-
ble, use the safety retainer pin and cable to fasten blade
housing covers.
See Figure 2-8.
The clutch/brake lever is located next to the engine.
4.
To engage the blade, pull the lever down until it locks in the down position. This engages
the drive mechanism, releases the blade brake, and increases the engine speed to full
throttle. To disengage the blade, raise the clutch/brake lever to the up position. This dis-
engages the drive belt, engages the blade brake, and returns the engine to idle.
CAUTION!
Failing to stop the blade can cause it to be
pulled off by a wood sliver (while traveling in reverse). This
will ruin the blade. Stopping the blade when returning the
carriage also increases the life of the blade.
