of accuracy.
The moulder should be operated only by an adult who has read and understood the entire
operator’s manual.
The machine is built to be durable and easy to operate and maintain.
In case of moulders equipped with manual feed system, the moulding head should be
moved by using the crank handle only to ensure operator safety and best accuracy. The

1.2 Machine and Site Preparation
The Wood-Mizer moulder is delivered on a pallet. Due to the weight, it has to be
transported with auxiliary carrier equipment and in accordance with general safety rules.
The moulder must be installed in the work-place as instructed in the operator’s manual.
To ensure safe operation of the machine, the work-place dimensions should be
3 m x 10 m. If your machine is equipped with additional bed sections, prepare an
appropriately larger work area. The work-place must be protected from rain and snow.
