(Item No. LM34-41140)

Log Loading/Rolling & Ramp Package A must for milling operations without access to heavy-lift loaders or forklifts.  Load large logs onto your LM Pro and hold them in place for quick-dogging.  Pass the winch cable over and around the log, connect it to the log deck frame and operate the winch – the log rolls up the ramps onto the bed.  Also makes rolling (rotating) the log on the bed a snap – speeds up squaring cants.  Package includes two loading ramps, 2-speed 1800 lb. winch, mast/boom & receiver and log-rolling hook. (Item No. LM34-41400)

	Saw Carriage Cover Protect your investment. Made from the same rugged material used for transport-truck covers – they’re rip, rot and UV-resistant. Tailored specifically for the LumberMate Pro to fit snuggly over the whole carriage and equipped with draw-cords. (Item No. LM34-41290)

Lap Siding & Shingle Making Package Make shiplap and cedar-shake siding quickly and easily. With this unique jig, cut lap-siding 7” – 12” (17.5 – 30cm) wide, with taper widths down to a feather-edge. Reconfigure the jigs and make cedar-shake shingles 7” – 12” (17.5 – 30cm) wide and up to 20” (50cm) long – Each pass makes two shingles. Two jigs per set. Tip: To double shingle production, add an extra set. (Item No. 41270)

	Toe Boards (Manual) Quickly compensate for log taper and mill true, high-value lumber. Ideal for small to mid-sized logs up to 16” in diameter. Two units per set. (Item No. LM34-41285)

Quick-Click© Indexing Detent Setworks Quickly see your next depth mark. A weight/gravity indicator clicks into detents on specially-calibrated scales available in various standard board-thickness increments. Quick-Click© Indexing Detent Setwork Indicator System (Item No. LM34-DSIND) ¾” Detent Scale (Item No. LM34-DS34S) 6/4” Detent Scale (Item No. LM34-DS64S) 8/4” Detent Scale (Item No. LM34-DS84S)

 
Board Offloaders -Speed up production, and profits, with a set of board offloaders.  Push the fresh-sawn board or slab onto the bunk-mounted offloader rollers, and shoot it down to the end of the bed for fast, efficient unloading and stacking.  Quickly retractable so there’s zero interference when milling oversized logs and cants. Four roller assemblies per set. (Item No. LM34-41287)

 
Lumber Scales (9/4", 6/4", 5/4", & 9/8") 
 Your LumberMate Pro comes standard with a 2”, 1” & ¾” depth-of-cut scale with the kerf already calculated in.  To mill specialty-sized 9/4”, 6/4”, 5/4” & 9/8” lumber, simply install the optional pair of 9/4”, 6/4”, 5/4” & 9/8” magnetic scales calibrated with kerf allowance. When you want to mill standard lumber again, just peel them off and store them for later use.  An optional metric scale set is available to mill 5cm, 4cm & 2cm boards. Each pair includes the primary and secondary scales. (9/4”, 6/4”, 5/4” & 9/8” Scale: Item No. LM34-LS-94KIT)  (5cm, 4cm & 2cm Scale: Item No. LM34-LS-CMKIT)

 
 
 
 
 
 
Log-Dog/Log-Rest Receivers -
 
The LumberMate Pro is equipped with two complete quick connect/quick-disconnect log-dog/log-rest assemblies. Each log clamping assembly nests securely in receivers permanently installed inside the log deck.  Add extra receivers, and move your log clamps to different stations along your mill fast and easy.  Each set includes two receivers (enough for one station) plus mounting hardware. (Item No. LM34-DRRCRKIT)   Also available, additional complete log dog/rest clamping systems (one log dog/rest station per set). (Item No. LM34-DRKIT)
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
Rapid-Dogging and Rolling System -
 If you mill mainly small to mid-sized sawlogs 6” - 16” (15 - 40cm) in diameter, this patented dogging and rolling system is engineered to save you time and hassle. Bolt each of the two dogging/rolling assemblies onto separate cross bunks. You’ll find your sawlog, resting right on the smooth-action rollers, is easier to turn – even by hand!  Dogging is also faster thanks to the one-handed, single-action log dog clamps designed specifically to handle this mid-size dimension logs. Two units per set. (Item No. 41295)  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Hydraulic Pump System (Manual) – A powerful and low-cost entry into hydraulically-powered log-handling capabilities. The manual hydraulic hand pump can power the hydraulic log loaders as well as hydraulic toe boards.  For more than one function, order the selector valve to direct the hydraulic flow to either the log loader or to the toe boards, either individually or simultaneously. Hand pump kit comes complete with bracket.  (Item No. LM34-HD-P2) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
             
Hydraulic Selector Valve (for Manual Pump) – A simple, reliable, 3-way valve that makes selecting the hydraulic flow from the manual hydraulic pump quick and easy. Required where the manual hydraulic pump powers the hydraulic log loader system and toe board(s).  (Item No. LM34-HD-P3) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
             
Hydraulic Pump System (Integrated Power) – Power all your hydraulic attachments with the optional integrated hydraulic pump system. This system supplies seamless power for all your hydraulic log-handling attachments – log loaders, log clamping, log turner and toe boards. Powering the hydraulic pump with the sawmill engine eliminates the noise and hassle of an independent pump powered by a separate engine. The integrated hydraulic pump system comes complete with the auxiliary alternator system & housing, hydraulic pump, deep-cycle/high-capacity battery, standard 8-section valve-body, hydraulic hoses and fittings, mounting brackets and hardware. (Item No. LM34-HD-P1) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
             
Hydraulic Log Loaders – Load logs onto your log deck with a simple flick of a lever. The hydraulic log loaders can handle logs nearly 3000lbs (1360kg). Steel “spans” automatically drop down to bridge the gap between the loaders and your bed, and help protect your track. Engineered for easy removal for safe trailering, you can quickly remove the loaders from your mill in just minutes thanks to the quick-connect/disconnect pins and hydraulic fittings. The same quick-connect system means you can reinstall the loaders in just as little time. This system can be used with either the manual or power hydraulic pump system. (Item No. LM34-HD-41400) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
             
Hydraulic Roller Toe Boards – Compensate for the natural taper in logs with toe boards. Increase lumber yield, and increase the quality of your boards, by keeping the face of your cuts parallel to the grain. This is especially important when milling for grade. Each hydraulic roller toe board is equipped with a powerful hydraulic cylinder that can lift full-size logs up to 3 ½”.  A pair of roller toe boards also makes repositioning logs along the mill easier thanks to rugged integrated steel rollers. Toe boards can be used with either the manual or power hydraulic pump systems. (Item No. LM34-HD-41285) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
             
Hydraulic Log Turner – Rolling big logs is virtually effortless with the hydraulic log turner. A hydraulic cylinder and hydraulic motor give you separate control of vertical and rotation functions. Features dual-direction rotation – turn your log in either direction. Equipped with deep-toothed chain, the log turner bites hard into gnarly bark to maximize traction.  Use the log turner to roll logs into position for the first, second and third cuts. The hydraulic log turner requires the power hydraulic pump system. (Item No. LM34-HD-41500) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Hydraulic Log Clamping System – Clamp logs with vise-like power with this combined hydraulic log rests and hydraulic log dog system. Raise and lower the twin log rests, simultaneously, simply by operating a single lever. Built of precision laser-cut ¾” steel, they can travel up to 12 ½” above the log deck to clamp full-size logs, and down as low as 7/8” above the log deck to mill boards within 1” of the bed.  The four-way acting, dual-function, log dog not only gives you the dexterity, and power, to securely clamp even the biggest logs, the integrated four-way acting log dog can also be used to manipulate and turn cants. Because the log dog is not suitable for turning logs in the round, consider equipping your Pro with the hydraulic log turner to roll logs into position for the first, second and third cuts. The hydraulic log clamping system requires the power hydraulic pump system. (Item No. LM34-HD-41600) 
             
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Power Feed & Power Sawhead – From a single hand-held remote, direct 5 functions on your LM Pro’s sawhead: set the depth-of-cut, control the throttle, activate the blade lube system, engage the clutch, and power the carriage through the cut … all while standing comfortably at the head of your mill.  
 
 
 
Controlled by a 3-way momentary switch on the remote, the power drive motor with chain-drive system positively powers your saw carriage along the log deck, through the cut … and back.   Adjust your feed rate, on-the-go, thanks to the speed-adjusting dial integrated right into the remote control … speed up, or slow down, as you’re cutting, so you get smooth boards, every time.  The control panel is programmed to make all your power-feed transitions smooth – Stop n Forward, Stop n Reverse, and Forward n Reverse.  From the same remote, activate the dedicated 3-way momentary switch to raise and lower the sawhead. (Item No. LM34-PSH-5000) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
             
Board Return – If your LumberMate Pro is equipped with the remote-controlled power sawhead, you can boost production more by equipping your mill with the board return system.  When you power the carriage back after making a cut, the steel drag-back fingers firmly, and steadily, return the board to the head of the mill. Just direct each board into your waiting trailer or lumber pile. (Item No. LM34-PSH-5010)
