I picked up my LT 35 hydraulic in Indianapolis Indiana on April 23, my class was approximately four hours, they took their time with me and showed everything I needed to know on how to operate the mill, I watched your video on how to set it up and for the first couple times I set it up, I would refer back to your video and go step-by-step, you actually done a very good job on the demonstration, and you know what The first time I set it up I actually forgot to take the fenders off just like you said, after I realize what I done I kind of chuckled because you warned us, thank you very much for being a RUclips video instructor , your videos are very helpful thank you have a great day
That is great to hear and thank you, Monnie! You know, I’ve learned an incredible amount about a ton of subjects here on RUclips. I feel like if I can help someone else, I should. Thank you for taking the time to comment. You made my day!
Hey Boss, My comment here is long overdue. When I picked up my sawmill in Wisconsin last fall I was too stoked to really listen to all of the instructions properly. My college kid told me to look on youtube and there you were. It really is a great job by you in demonstrating the set up. I'm milling logs on my 20 acres in Minnesota for a treehouse I'm building now and a timberframe house in the years to come. I came back here to comment because I saw you comment on a "Bus Huxley" HFT series that I also enjoy. Being from Maine originally, I really appreciate his hard work and sense of humor. Sorry for the long winded comment, just wanted to thank you again for taking the time to help others like me. Have a good one..!!
That’s awesome, Dean! I’m glad I could help. When I picked up my mill my dad had come with me and ended up leaving the Wood-Mizer store in an ambulance so my instruction was a little overlooked as well. I’m going to do a full maintenance on my mill soon. Stay tuned for that!
@@NorthwestSawyer Holy cow, hope that turned out okay. I really like the mill and couldn't imagine running one without hydraulics. Looking forward to the maintenance video, definitely Not my strong suit. Thanks again..!!
Great video. I was looking for just this type of video! I just picked up my new LT40 Hydraulic yesterday and had the 3 hours training. Thats a LOT of info to pack in, in a short 3 hours! Then i got the idea this morning to look for videos explaining the different facets of setting up the saw, running the saw, and other parts that make sawmilling a lil easier for us first time sawmill owners. This way I could watch the video, and start & stop them to write down and make a list of all the steps, to read through as I was getting started. What I haven't found, is a video of the breakdown of the sawmill, after all the sawing has been completed, and youre ready to head back to home base with it. So, here I am asking you to possible do a short video on the breakdown. :) Seems to me, the breakdown and securing everything is just as, if not more important, than the setup! Your setup video is very detailed and easy to understand, thats why I'm asking YOU to do us a breakdown one! Thanks!
@@NorthwestSawyer, after thinking about it, I took and broke down all the facets of your video and made a detailed list of the setup. Numbered each item, printed the list then laminated it, so I'd have it every time I set it up. Maybe after 5-10 times of setup, I can remember each step without referring to the list. Seemed to cut our setup/breakdown time substantially. :)
I’m with you on the cumbersome means of using the levelling jacks. So, I use a bottle jack to finesse the levelling. It certainly helps me. I have an older LT 40 and it’s manual and so every little bit helps. 😊
Excellent video my friend. You have a sweet, mill, I hope to heave one later this year, but it will be one of the smaller ones. Thanks again for sharing and I hope you have a blessed week.
That is awesome, I would love to sit down and chat with you sometime. Yes sir, I agree, nothing wrong with a good starting point, and let life see where it takes you. Thanks again for sharing and keep up the fun videos.
Shoooooot, Ben! Your channel is a big part of why I started making videos. I had a great time watching your live feed the other night! There is no way I'd be able to try and follow along while shooting. I could barely keep up with the comments as it is!
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Timing is perfect because we pick up our new Wood-Mizer LT35 Hydraulic this coming Friday. I also want to thank you for all of your other videos. Your videos helped this very green old rookie pull the trigger on all of this. I am likely buying mine from the same place that you purchased yours. I'll tell the salesman, Rob, that he should send you a commission. Now if I can figure out that siding attachment you made, I might find a friend to weld one up for me. ;>) Starting this weekend.... this will be quite an adventure.
Oh boy! You’re probably like a kid at Christmas right now! I’ll be honest, the salesman there didn’t impress me one bit. But the guy who did impress me was the guy who gives you your training. He is a good guy. Knows the saw well. My dad had gone with me to get my saw last summer and ended up fainting a couple times in the heat. He got us water and called an ambulance. He was going to help however he could. You are about to have a lot of fun making sawdust! Keep us posted!
Will do. About the only thing I am not looking forward to is a night in a motel. I hate staying in motels. Normally when we head to Oregon I am towing our Airstream trailer and we are in route to Pacific City....and ready to kill fish. After I get it home, set up and load a log on, you should be able to hear me scream. LOL
My son proposed to the gal he married on that beach. Oh, I could type for a couple months about my times on that beach. My grandparents retired there and I started spending weekends and summers there at age 5. We still go there once a year for at least a week.
disabled vet here,,, sure wish i could afford one of them there saws,,, sure would help me as a part of my therapy for sure, would get me out of seclusion i live in
Another rookie question: Does the Wood-Mizer LT35 Hydraulic come with blade tension gauge? Do I need to buy one? Heading to dealer in morning. Should have it home Friday night and learning how to make boards on Saturday. We are both so excited.
The guy who trains you will show you how to tension in the blade. It’s very simple. You will get a very thorough book with your saw. You’ll also get a gauge to set the drive belt tension. The only thing you should buy at the time you get your saw is a box of blades.
I did it. Spent most of yesterday at training....fun, and also fun to watch my wife make boards. I added a single upgrade, a tongue jack that I can crank up....much easier than that steel bar lift. We will set it up today and see just how much we remember and then...read the big book. So very happy. First I must make it fun, then I might try to make a few bucks, but this is mostly about fun for my bride and I... and the hunt for the beauty of what can be seen inside the log. Thanks again.
I’ll be honest. I’ve seen a demonstration on the ACCU set and it was confusing. Probably not once you use it for a while but simple set is just that. Simple.

Thank you for this video. I pick my sawmill up this Friday. Thanks. As always be safe and enjoy.
Congratulations on your new mill! I just shot a video on maintenance that I’m editing now and should be up this weekend. Stay tuned!
@@NorthwestSawyer Thank you. Got the mill home. Waiting on the rains and mud to go away. Will look forward to your videos.
Thank you so much for this. I just bought one and due to covid 19 I didn't get the class. Setting up today and sawing my first log!
Congratulations! Glad to help. There’s a lot to remember even if you get the training😬

Nice practical video, great step by step by a operator of the mill.
Thank you, Ron!
I absolutely, 100% totally agree about the not liking the outriggers on the 35.
I’m with you on the cumbersome means of using the levelling jacks. So, I use a bottle jack to finesse the levelling. It certainly helps me. I have an older LT 40 and it’s manual and so every little bit helps. 😊
Very informative and well explained. Thank you!
Thank you, Paul.
Excellent video my friend. You have a sweet, mill, I hope to heave one later this year, but it will be one of the smaller ones. Thanks again for sharing and I hope you have a blessed week.
This isn't my first mill! You have to start somewhere. I started small too. I just didn't realize where this was going to take me and how quickly!
That is awesome, I would love to sit down and chat with you sometime. Yes sir, I agree, nothing wrong with a good starting point, and let life see where it takes you. Thanks again for sharing and keep up the fun videos.
I have one loading now😬👍🏻
Sweet, I will be watching in a few then.
You look good in orange...it's my favorite color too!
I’ve been in construction for 30 years. It’s all I have in my closet 😬
Really appreciate this video as I did not realize the fender interference with log loader, first warning label is going on that fender!
Happy to help! I had a lot of questions when I was waiting for my mill so I’ve tried to make videos to answer some of them.
You've got a nice sawmill for sure. I enjoy getting on a forum "Saw and Timber". It's a great place to share your experiences and help others as well.
Thanks for the heads-up! I’ll check it out.👍
Those hydraulic helpers are nice!
Great video. I learn so much from your videos. How about a stow video als before traveling with lt35
Watch this one in reverse🥸 I’m joking and thank you! That’s a good idea because there are some tips to remember when packing up.
@@NorthwestSawyer purchasing lt 35 from my brother Tuesday. I’m excited
@@terrysharp5025 congratulations!!
Great walk through. If you keep this up you will pass me by on youtube. Keep up the good work. 👍

My wife and I got married on the beach in Pacific City! Love it there!
My son proposed to the gal he married on that beach. Oh, I could type for a couple months about my times on that beach. My grandparents retired there and I started spending weekends and summers there at age 5. We still go there once a year for at least a week.
Did you say where you're traveling from?
Very helpful video
Awesome! Glad to help!
Thank you sooo much! This was a very needed video!
Excellent video. Thanks!
You need to upgrade you legs to fine adjust. It is costly but really worth it. I did that on my lt40 and i love them.
Andy
I know. I think they’re $1,000. I’m thinking about trying to make something even better. Or at least cheaper😬
I'm looking at bolting on some home made F.A.Os myself.
Are they available for the LT35?
They are.
Northwest Sawyer
I’ll have to check into that too.
disabled vet here,,, sure wish i could afford one of them there saws,,, sure would help me as a part of my therapy for sure, would get me out of seclusion i live in
Thank you for your service, sir!
thank you for your thankfulness my friend,,, appreciate ya@@NorthwestSawyer
thank you for the video, love watching them
Nice demo
“Pull the pin”,.. I get it now! 😂😂
Thanks so much for your help I'll be ordering the LT 35 any other options you would recommend?
I got a de-barker and am glad I did. One thing I don’t have but would like is the fine adjustment leg kit. It can be added later so I still might.
Thanks for the videos
I welded a "wind up" jack on the front and rear of my lt 40, and it is a breeze to set up now.
That’s a good idea. At least for the front. It’s a pain.
Another rookie question: Does the Wood-Mizer LT35 Hydraulic come with blade tension gauge?

Thanks. Got box of 15 blades tossed in during sale, might buy a second box as long as I am there.
More is better! Good luck today!
I mean tomorrow 😬
I did it.
Spent most of yesterday at training....fun, and also fun to watch my wife make boards. I added a single upgrade, a tongue jack that I can crank up....much easier than that steel bar lift. We will set it up today and see just how much we remember and then...read the big book. So very happy.

Thanks again.
How much was the Wood Mizer lt35
I paid a little under $21k. I think they’re close to $25 now.
OK thanks I was going to try to get the LT 40 super hydraulic with the Accu set 2 but I just don't know if I can swing that much money yet
I’ll be honest. I’ve seen a demonstration on the ACCU set and it was confusing. Probably not once you use it for a while but simple set is just that. Simple.
How do you like the simple set set works controls are they easy to use and accurate?
Yes to all of the above. It’s a huge time saver.
Why is precise levelling so important?
Leveling isn’t nearly as important as making sure you have equal pressure on each leg to keep the deck flat when you have heavy loads on it.
Nice Video! I just put up a video on the 6 lessons I learned with my new LT35HD. Check it out if you get a minute.
I will! Thank you!
