I wish to thank Wood-Mizer for the outstanding support system that they have developed, as well as the design of an incredible mill. I'm one of those persons whose lives have changed by the purchase of an LT40HD.

Add the advantages of hydraulics to the quality and durability of
the LT40, and much of the physical labor associated with sawing is
eliminated. Six hydraulic levers located at the front of the mill, control
the functions of loading, leveling, clamping, and turning of the log.
Once the log is ready, the operator simply sets the board thickness
and feed rate from the centralized cutting controls and walks
along with each cut. An optional operator seat can also be added
for convenience.
If you have not witnessed firsthand the advantages of hydraulic log
handling, call us to talk to someone who has or visit our website to
find out when you can see a demonstration for yourself. The speed
and ease of operation provided by hydraulics help serious sawyers
achieve their goals.
Options include a Command Control station that brings all controls,
including the hydraulic log-handling levers, to a fixed position at the
head of the mill. Other options available on the LT40 Hydraulic include
Accuset® 2, AutoClutch, LaserSight, LubeMizer™, Board
Return, Operator Seat and Debarker. |

| LOG HANDLING |
 Hydraulic Roller Toeboards
Extra-wide roller toeboards compensate for log taper and allow easy log positioning.
|
 Hydraulic Loading Arms
Logs can be loaded in seconds with the throw of a lever. Each arm features a self-leveling, heavy-duty cylinder. |
 Hydraulic Log Clamp
Special two-plane clamping system simplifies sawing of stressed logs. Cuts as close as 1" from the bed are possible. |
 Hydraulic Log Turner
Turning a log or cant for the next cut is easy. Just move a lever on the control box. |
