Attach the four track sweepers to the frame so that the steel brush reaches the bottom of the
groove in the carriage wheels. Use a 13mm socket to fasten.
Add waterproof grease to the threads of the blade tension
“T” handle and to the washer face that it
meets before use. Proper blade tension is achieved when the blade deflects no more than a total of
1/
8” - 1/4” up/down. Alternatively, a 24mm socket on a torque wrench may be used to tighten the “T”
handle to 8-20 ft-lbs torque. See above right image.
*Note
– It is very important to take the tension off of the blade by turning the “T” handle in the
counter-clockwise direction when the sawmill is not in use. Failure to do so, will result in flat
spots on the rubber belts. These flat spots will cause the mill to vibrate excessively during next
use.*
