As stated it's so easy to knock out of line and then logs will be out, we cut some big stuff and I load mine with my excavator 

The advantage of having the hydraulics is that you present the log with the forklift to the point where the hydraulics can get a hold of it. You don't have to final position it with whatever it is that you are loading with. It's really easy to damage even a very robust mill loading. I bent a backstop on my Trakmet with a 4 tonne beech log. It's easily done.

Exciting! Once you're up and running I'd get some Ripper37 blades from Stephen Cull to get the most out of your mill, blades are first class - as is his service. He has a resharp service and is also a fountain of knowledge on milling. He does machine servicing and setups too, just in case!! Link below:

Awesome! I have 6 Bacho Blades to get through first but it will give me a good understanding on the difference between them.

So we've all been ill up here. Wife and Baby still ill so not much time to play with the Band Saw. :( Ive got the Bed level and tightened, engine, clutch, belt and Band Saw Blade installed but when I was calibrating the Saw Head yesterday disaster struck! 

 

I had the Sawhead lowered to the lowest possible point as per instructions. When I went to raise it I wound the handle the wrong way. It will crank away quite happily but all you're doing is stretching a set of springs to breaking point. Which is what I did. 

 

Called Logosol UK, the UK rep also has a B751, he did the exact same thing and talked me through what Id done and how to fix it. He's sending me a set of new springs so thats good of them.

 

So although the height adjustment is done through a Chain system the chains are anchored to these springs. Which can obviously stretch over time and are clearly susceptible to damage quite easily.

Springs replaced and finished up setting the Saw up. Done a few practice logs and Im fairly happy with the Mill. I'm getting some lateral movement with the Sawhead on the rails. There does not seem to be anthing further for me to adjust. The rails also seem to flex quite a lot. Ive took a video but not sure how to add them here?
