Setup & Operation
2.15 Water Lube Operation
See Figure 2-11.
The Water Lube System keeps the blade clean. Water flows from a
5-gallon (18.9 liter) bottle through a hose to the blade guide where the blade enters the
log. A valve in the bottle cap controls the amount of water flow.
Not all types of wood require the use of the Water Lube System. When it is needed, use
just enough water to keep the blade clean. This saves water, and lowers the risk of stain-
ing the boards with water. Usual flow will be 1-2 gallons (3.8-7.6 liters) per hour. A squirt
of liquid dishwashing detergent in the water bottle will help clean the blade when cutting
wood with a high sap content.
WARNING!
Never use flammable fuels or liquids instead of
water with this accessory. If these type of liquids are neces-
sary to clean the blade, remove it and clean with a rag.
Before removing the blade, engage the clutch/brake lever. Let the blade spin with water
running on it for about 15 seconds. This will clean the blade of sap buildup. Wipe the
blade dry with a rag before storing or sharpening.
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.
