WARNING!
Always check trailer tires for proper inflation before towing
sawmill. Failure to follow this could lead to tire failure resulting in prop-
erty damage and/or serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
Move the hydraulic clamp and turner to provide maximum
ground clearance before towing. Failure to follow this could result in
damage to the sawmill.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY FOR ELECTRIC BRAKE TRAILERS
DANGER!
Make sure the electric brake wire is secured as close to the
trailer axle as possible to prevent wire disconnection during towing.
Failure to follow this will result in serious personal injury or death.
DANGER!
Be sure electric brake battery is charged and is working
properly before towing the sawmill. Failure to follow this will result in
serious personal injury or death.
DANGER!
Do not use the electric brake system as an “emergency
brake” while the sawmill is not being towed. Extended use of the elec-
tric brakes while the sawmill is stationary will drain the brake battery.
