Terry Carl is right. Those bars in the sawdust chute are there to contain broken blades. Had I known that, I would not have cut them out.

I had just bought the mill love it but I'll leave the bars for now just check it more often

I like the idea mine dose the same Thang I run a good amount of water on them too so my mill is same as you got going on I've ran 8 logs fir now blade is getting dull having waves in my cuts.

Nice video

Great video, thanks for sharing !

Nice video ! Just ordered my saw.

Thank you very much, so many great ideas!!

These are great videos, thanks so much, still on the fence of what brand to buy though, frontier. Woodland mills or woodmizer

I hear alot of reviews on woodland mills about blades jumping off the wheels. Why do the other reviews of other mills not mention their blades jumping off all the time. Is this a normal thing for all mills or just woodland mills has this issue.

Very informative! Thank you for sharing

Thanks for the tips.

My HM 126 model year 2022 has specific instructions on how to adjust both follower side as well as the drive side. I wouldn’t be afraid to adjust the drive side wheel

If you put to much water to lube blades it causes havoc with throwing blades( from hydroplaning to build up on wheel, try slowing down lube

Eric I suggested to a woodland owner cut those bars off chute and you would have thought I cussed his mother!

I think the bars keep the squirrels out!

my grandfather worked in the woods until he was in his 60's (Cottage Grove area) and I inherited his peavey. I just ordered my HM30 last week

If you watch woodmizer videos you will see a notched bushing that they made to catch the bottom of the cant. It seems to work pretty good.

Great video... I also have a 122. Thanks for taking it apart so I don't have to.

Hey i too had the tracking issue....never jumped a blade because ive been tryng to set tracking according to spec before initial cut. It is brand new hm122 2021 model i set the blade to specs in book (1mm back and 9mm front) tight it up and turn by hand. The follower wheel stays on point but the drive side comes back in. I set it again and again and again back to specs on both side and the drive side always comes back in. I tried to have it go in and out with the 2 bolts ober 2 hrs it changes nothing ti the drive side. Since i dont dare go against the "factory set do not touch" i set it to match the drive side which ends up being about 7mm in front. At least they are equal to each other. I sawed one small log and no issue.

CRC 336 is superior to WD 40. I used both for years on metal punches. The WD40 would dry out after sitting around. The other would not.
