LT50 Hydraulic Portable Sawmill

Loaded with high-production features including advanced hydraulic log handling, Accuset2 Setworks, auto board return arm with outfeed table, and faster sawhead movement, the LT50 hydraulic portable sawmill is engineered for speed and high-production. Equipped with the many of the same high-performance features as the LT40 super hydraulic portable sawmill, the LT50 also includes fine-adjust outriggers, bi-directional chain log turner, and vertical side supports for precise bed leveling and faster log positioning.

The LT50 hydraulic is completely portable and ready for road travel with a standard single axle trailer and electric brakes. Six fine-adjust outriggers allow for quick set-up and precise leveling of the bed prior to sawing. The patented open side of the LT50 hydraulic sawhead allows for minimal leveling during set-up, easy off-bearing with the trapezoid shaped bed, and sawing of odd shaped logs.

Operation

Logs are loaded and turned hydraulically with loading arms and a heavy-duty bi-directional chain log turner for maximum log control. Logs are secured onto the bed by four side supports (two hydraulically controlled vertical supports for fast positioning) and a heavy-duty hydraulic log clamp. Two hydraulic roller toeboards assist with precise leveling of the log on the bed for tapered logs. Dual hydraulic pumps allow for up to twice as fast hydraulic log handling than the standard hydraulic portable sawmills. Accuset2 Setworks and powered head controls position the saw head height to prepare for sawing. Accuset2 calculates board thickness to quickly and accurately reposition the sawing head automatically for the next cut. Once the blade is engaged with an auto clutch toggle switch, the saw head advances through the log with the power feed control that includes variable speed for optimal sawing control. The power feed includes an individual motor that delivers greater forward/reverse head speeds for increased performance. Once the cut is completed, the saw head is raised and reversed by the powered saw head controls and positioned for the next cut. A water tank feeds lubrication directly to the blade to improve cutting performance and keep the blade clean. An auto board return arm and 2' x 2' outfeed table assists with offbearing boards. An optional debarker helps extend blade life between sharpenings by clearing a ¼” wide path in front of the sawmill blade’s cut entry. The adjustable blade guide arm keeps the blade well supported while cutting various sized material. Blade tension is easily adjusted, and keeps the blade at the proper tension for cutting.

The LT50 hydraulic portable sawmill comes fully assembled with one Wood-Mizer sawmill blade.
