I was useing my LT 15 for the first time since last fall over this past weekend. It took me a little time to get started after dropping the bolt from the bottom of the float bowl in the sawdust  but then it was off to the races.I was sawing hemlock 4/4 and  the carrage won't go to 1' the it stops at 1 & 1/2 ''  anyone ever have this problem

Trax, mine will drop to 7/8".  Maybe there is an adjustment.

I believe the lower stop is adjustable to compensate for chain and sprocket wear..there should be something in the adjustment/setup
portion of the manual

if you don't have one I will look it up when i get home tonight

Ok..can't find anything in da book...of course i'm pretty tired so I may be missing something..
WDH...where are you measuring your blade height to bedrail from? Should be from the tip of a
downset blade tooth to the crown of the bed rail..

Trax...Does the height gage on the mill agree with the measurement between downset blade tooth and
bed rail.  Maybe check the up/down chain tension.

I will go out and look at the mill tomorrow sometime...if I can align a radar I can figure this out..

Kinda interested anyway...I have not had to mess with any adjustments on the mill, as it arrived perfectly
aligned from the factory...<G>

Zopi,

lol..guess my habit of strict adherence to specification is a little out of hand....I DO work in Submarines...1"
means 1"! lol Sorry..

I didn't get to look at it today either..had to go look at a couple pieces of equipment...I need a little TLB..
