POWER FEED SYSTEM SAFETY
DANGER!
If leaving the blade engaged for maximum production
rates, make sure the off-bearer stays out of the path of the blade.
Failure to do so will result in serious injury or death.
WARNING!
Be sure the power feed switch is in the neutral position
before turning the key switch to the on (#1) or accessory (#3) posi-
tion. This prevents accidental carriage movement
which may cause
serious injury or death.
GENERAL TRAILER SAFETY
DANGER!
Make sure your hitch has adequate safety chain hook-
ups. Do not use eyebolts for safety chain hook-up. Safety chains
should be hooked to bumper of vehicle so that each chain would
pull the trailer equally in the event the hitch became disengaged.
Failure to do so may result in serious personal injury and/or severe
machine damage.
DANGER!
Be sure that the hitch and safety chains are secure
before towing the sawmill. Failure to do so may result in serious
personal injury and/or severe machine damage.
DANGER!
Make sure all light connections have been made and
are working properly before towing the sawmill. Failure to do so
may result in serious personal injury and/or severe machine dam-
age.
