Laser Alignment
1.
Stationary sawmills should be setup on firm, level ground before proceeding with align-
ment. Shim the feet so the weight of the sawmill is evenly supported.
Portable sawmills should also be setup on firm, level ground:
LT60HD:
Adjust the two middle outriggers on the main frame tube down just enough to lift
weight from the trailer tire.
LT70HD:
Adjust the two end outriggers on the main frame tube down just enough to lift
weight from the trailer tire.
All Portable Sawmills:
Adjust the two outer outriggers down just so they touch the
ground but do not bear weight.
2.
Make sure the sawmill is properly aligned (see the Alignment Section of your Sawmill
Operator’s Manual.)
3.
Load a cant onto the bed of the sawmill.
4.
Make a cut. Without raising the carriage head, return it to the front of the sawmill so that
blade remains level with the top of the cant and the carriage head is 1’ behind the front of
the cant.
5.
Align the laser. When the laser is properly aligned, approximately 10” of beam will show
across the front of the cant.
To adjust the laser vertically, loosen the assembly mounting fasteners. Move the entire
laser assembly up or down as necessary. Retighten the fasteners to secure the assembly
in position.
