32" Portable Sawmill ASSEMBLY

1. RAILS & CENTRE BUNK

Reinforcement Plate

Use eight M10 X 30 mm flanged hex bolts and M10 flanged lock nuts per side. Snug the bolts enough so that minor adjustments to the track width can be made once all the bunks are assembled to the rails.

Bunk Assembly

Use M10 X 30 mm flanged hex bolts and M10 flanged lock nuts at all end & mid bunk locations. Snug the hardware in the same manner as the centre bunk.

3. FEET

Assemble the leveling feet up through the bottom of the guide rail and thread the M16 hex nut to each foot. Do not tighten the nut. Leave it loose enough so that there is a noticeable gap between the nut and the track to allow the track level in later steps.

Turn the middle nut on each foot to fine-tune the level. Once level, secure each foot to the rail by tightening the M16 top nut.

4. LIMIT PLATE

Use two (2) M10 X 30 mm flanged hex bolts and M10 flanged lock nuts to assemble each carriage stop to the inside of the track rails.

Note that there are various locations along the track where this assembly can be bolted. Depending on how many track sections are being used, select a log clamp position that will secure the log firmly against the log supports.

6. LOG SUPPORTS

The log supports can be installed into any bunk with a sleeve by simply sliding them down through the top of the sleeve and securing them with the T-bolt.

The longer group is ideal for larger logs.

Use the shorter key stop log support for milling smaller logs and square cants.

7. SAWMILL HEAD ASSEMBLY

Insert vertical post assemblies into corresponding locations in head assembly.

8. FRONT VERTICAL POST ASSEMBLY

Assemble front vertical post to wheel assembly using the two bolts and back plate. Repeat same step for the other front vertical post assembly.
