SECTION 1 SETUP & OPERATION
With the Wood-Mizer Resaw Attachment Option, you can resaw cants up to 94" (225100
mm) thick and 1812" (450300 mm) wide. The Resaw Attachment mounts to the sawmill
bed. The carriage head of the sawmill remains stationary (in a fixed position) while a pow-
ered conveyor beltrollers on the attachment feeds cants through the saw blade. The fol-
lowing instructions will guide you in installation, operation, and maintenance of the Resaw
Attachment.
See Figure 1-1. The Resaw Attachment includes the following:
Feed assembly
Two roller table assemblies
Two wiring harnesses
Two carriage locking clamps

1.2 Electrical Installation for ‘97+ Super Mills
Resaw Revision K
IMPORTANT! This section contains wiring instructions for
installing current revision resaws to 1997 and later model
LT30 Super, LT40 Super, LT30HD Super, or LT40HD Super
mills.
If you have a 1997 or later model LT30, LT40, LT30HD or
LT40HD mill or if you have a 1992-1996 model mill, follow
the wiring installation instructions found in Section 1.3 Elec-
trical Installation for ‘97+ Standard Mills & All ‘92-’96 Mills.
If you have a mill manufactured prior to 1992, following the
wiring installation instructions found in Section 1.4 Electrical
Installation for Pre-‘92 Mills.
4. Locate the two terminal posts on the power feed motor. Remove the existing wires from
each terminal. (Set the top retaining nut, top washer, and rubber boot from each connec-
tion aside.) Unclamp the wires from the power feed belt guard and route them back
through the side of the battery box.
5. Slide one of the existing rubber boots over each wire of the provided long harness.
Connect the black harness wire to the top motor terminal. Connect the red harness wire
to the bottom motor terminal. Secure each connection in place with the existing washers
and retaining nuts removed earlier. Cover each connection with the rubber boots installed
to the wires earlier.
6. Route the long harness along the side of the power feed belt guard, using the existing
clamps to secure in place. Connect the long harness to the provided short harness.
7. Route the short harness through the battery box as shown.
