picking up new sawmill

March 29, 2015, 06:42:51 PM

Hi All
I am new to this forum. I have been reading it for a while, and have great respect for the wisdom here.
I am picking up, weather permitting, a new TK 1600 from the dealer this coming weekend. I hate to tow it with all the salt powder still on many roads. It will have to get a good bath. I am sure I will be posting questions here from time to time.

Regards

Hi Joed, Bring some garbage bags and duck tape to cover stuff to keep the salt off things you don't want salt on.
