LT15 Portable Sawmill
The LT15 portable sawmill features a cutting capacity for sawing 71cm diameter logs into 66cm wide boards up to 5.4m in length with optional 2.1m extensions for sawing longer lengths. Built in the USA with premium quality steel and industrial-grade powder coat paint, the LT15 adds durability with a steel box bed frame and features gas, diesel, or electric sawmill options, a quick up/down sawhead, gravity-fed blade lubrication, steel side supports, steel log clamps, optional saw head power feed, optional GO trailer, and more for a portable sawmill that is versatile, reliable and trusted throughout the world
Large In-Class Sawing Capacity
Saw softwood and hardwood logs up to 28” in diameter with a 26” width of cut and a 10-½” depth of cut – more than enough capacity for most logs you'll come across.
Secure Logs with 2 Quick-Set Log Clamps
Constructed of strong tube steel, two quick-set log clamps tightly fasten logs for sawing and are adjustable up/down and in/out as material is cut. The log clamp uses an acme thread screw for better durability and a clamp point block for an extra grip on a round log or squared cant. Each log clamp is able to move between other cross sections and additional log clamps are available as needed.
Optional Power Feed
Power up your LT15 portable sawmill with an efficient power feed system. This easy-to-use, bolt-on, electronic control replaces the manual crank feed and allows you to move the saw head forward and reverse with 12 volt power for more production with less effort. In addition, a power feed improves the quality of the cut by providing a consistent, even feed speed that yields the best surface on lumber. Forward saw head speed is variable up to 90 feet per minute with the simple turn of a dial and the reverse saw head control is one speed.
Precision Sawing with Thin-Kerf Sawmill Blades
Engage the sawmill blade with the convenient pull handle that engages the mechanical clutch and automatically throttles the engine at the same time. The LT15 sawmill uses 158” length sawmill blades. We recommend having at least 10 sawmill blades on hand to minimize sawing downtime when sharpening blades. With the ability to saw as precise as 1/16” with the thin-kerf sawmill blade, you get the most usable lumber out of every log.
Quick Sawhead Up/Down with Crank Handle
Quickly and accurately move the sawhead up and down to prepare for sawing with the crank handle and lift assist. Easily turn the handle clockwise or counterclockwise with 32 locking locations to adjust the blade depth 2” for each full rotation or 1/16” for each notch to prepare for the next cut. A quarter scale is also included for sawing 8/4”, 6/4”, 5/4”, and 4/4” lumber.
Reliable Power with Gas, Diesel, or Electric
Versatile and reliable power options are available to fit your needs. For portable and outdoor sawing, 19HP or 25HP gas and 10HP or 17HP diesel engines with electric start are available. A 10HP electric motor is also available for sawing indoors in a garage or workshop with a single or three-phase connection.
