Set up the mill on firm footing and level by eye. Fasten the mill to the floor to prevent any
creep after prolonged use. A cement pad with 5/8” (16 mm) diameter anchor bolts is rec-
ommended. The cement pad should be rated to support 6350 lbs./sq.ft. (31 T/m
˛
) at each
sawmill foot position.
NOTE:
Make sure the unit is level before securing.The sawmill mast should not be tilted
from the vertical more than 3
o
towards the log loader. The mast should not be tilted in the
opposite direction.
WARNING!
Do not operate a stationary sawmill without the
feet securely fastened to the floor.
