4. To engage the blade, pull the clutch lever clockwise until it locks in the down position. This engages
the drive mechanism and increases the engine speed to full throttle.
5. To disengage the blade, raise the clutch lever to the up position. This disengages the drive belt and
returns the engine to idle.
2.11 Cutting The Log
The following steps guide you through normal operation of the Wood-Mizer sawmill.
1. Once the log is placed where you want it and clamped firmly, position the blade close to the end of
the log.
2. Use the blade height scale to determine where to make your first cut (
See Section 2.13
). The blade
height scale will help you to do this. Set the blade to the desired height with the up/down buttons.
Make sure that the blade will clear all side supports and clamps. Adjust the outer blade guide to clear
the widest section of the log by moving the blade guide arm
handle. (
See Section 2.8
. )
3. Make sure all covers and guards are in place and secured. Start the engine.
4. Start the water lube if necessary to prevent sap buildup on the blade.
See Section 2.14 .
5. Feed the blade into the log slowly.
( See Section 3.10 .)
Once the blade completely enters the log,
increase the feed rate as desired. Always try to cut at the fastest speed you can while keeping an
accurate cut. Cutting too slowly will waste blade life and lower production!
6. As you get to the end of the log, slow down the feed rate. When the teeth exit the end of the log,
release the safety button on the control box. Remove the slab that you have just cut from the log.
