This portable sawmill can handle logs up to 22” (55cm) in diameter, producing boards up to 20” (51cm) wide and 10’ 4” (3.1m) long. Its 4-post head design, with a tubular back beam, ensures rigidity, resulting in precise and smooth cuts. The head moves up & down galvanized steel posts via an easy-to-use hand crank system. The sawmill is powered by a reliable 7.0 HP or 9.5 HP 4-cycle Kohler gas engine. The HM122 portable sawmill boasts new and innovative features, including an automatic blade lubricant system that activates when the throttle is engaged and the RapidChange™ blade system, allowing for quick and tool-less blade changes. With its impressive features and unbeatable value, the HM122 remains the top-rated portable sawmill in its class.
PRECISION CUTTING
With its ability to cut logs up to 22″ (55cm) in diameter and mill live edge boards up to 20″ (51cm) wide, the HM122 portable sawmill is an ideal choice for those in Australia & New Zealand looking to maximize their lumber output from the local hardwood forest. This portable sawmill can handle logs up to 10’ 4” (3.1m) in length with the standard track configuration, and you can unlock unlimited length potential with the optional 6’ 5” (1.95m) track extensions. Additionally, it can skim veneers as thin as 1/16″ (1.6mm). Thanks to its precision cutting capabilities, the HM122 sawmill can cut within 1″ (25mm) of the deck, ensuring that you get the maximum usable board foot output from every log. With these impressive features, the HM122 sawmill is an essential tool for any hobby sawyer’s who wants to efficiently mill lumber from the local hardwood forest.
EFFICIENT POWER
The HM122 sawmill is powered by a dependable 7.0HP or 9.5HP 4-cycle Kohler gas/petrol engine that makes it a reliable tool for hobby sawyers in Australia and New Zealand. This engine features a slant cylinder design, with a cast iron cylinder bore and an overhead valve for easy access. The Quad-Clean 4-stage air filtration system ensures that only clean air enters the engine, resulting in maximum power and extending the engine’s lifespan. The engine is equipped with an industrial centrifugal clutch system, making it easy to operate the sawmill with a gas-and-go approach. Furthermore, this engine comes with a 3-year Kohler warranty, ensuring that it will run reliably for years to come. With its powerful engine and reliable performance, the HM122 portable sawmill is the perfect tool for milling lumber.
RIGID TRACK SYSTEM
The HM122 sawmill is designed for maximum stability and accuracy during operation. The sawmill head rolls along a rigid 2 3/8″ x 2.5″ (6cm x 6cm) machined “L” channel that is cross-supported with heavy-duty 2 3/8″ x 4 3/4″ (6cm x 12cm) rectangle log bunks. This ensures that the weight of the log is dispersed over a large bearing surface, preventing the log from getting marked with indentations and providing additional rigidity to the track system. To hold the log securely while milling, the track features an easy-to-use screw-style log clamp. The standard track configuration consists of two 6’ 5” (1.95m) sections, allowing for logs up to 10’ 4” (3.1m) in length. If you need to mill longer logs, additional 6’ 5” (1.95m) tracks can be attached. The track also comes with 12 levelling legs, which can be adjusted up to 4” (10cm) to ensure that the track can be levelled on uneven ground.
GAS & GO OPERATION
The HM122 portable sawmill is designed to make the process of cutting lumber quick and efficient, thanks to its innovative throttle system. The throttle handle engages the engine, saw blade, and auto lube system simultaneously, reducing the number of steps required by the operator. This means that the operator can focus on cutting the lumber rather than adjusting multiple components separately. To ensure maximum comfort during operation, the throttle handle position can also be adjusted based on the track height. This makes it easy for operators to work comfortably regardless of their height or the length of the logs they are cutting.
RAPIDCHANGE™ BLADE SYSTEM
Woodland Mills has developed an innovative feature exclusive to their portable sawmill’s called the RapidChange™ blade system. This system is designed to make changing blades quick and easy without the need for any tools, significantly reducing downtime during blade changes. Furthermore, the RapidChange™ blade system reduces the need for blade tracking adjustments between blade changes, ensuring consistent blade tension throughout all temperatures. The system uses a stack of Belleville washers that act as a shock absorber for the blade, reducing stress on the blades and ensuring they last longer. Overall, the RapidChange™ blade system is a game-changer for hobby sawyers looking to mill hardwood lumber from the forest in Australia.
THIN KERF BLADES
The Woodland Mills HM122 portable sawmill utilizes top-of-the-line 1.25″ x 125″ x 0.042″ (32mm x 3.175m x 1.0mm) hardened tipped blades, which are available for purchase through Old Talgai. These blades are specially designed to withstand the rigors of milling hardwood in the forest in Australia. The HM122 sawmill is also designed to minimize blade kerf, which is the width of the cut made by the blade, to just .080″ (2mm). This feature maximizes the amount of lumber produced per log, ensuring that hobby sawyers get the most out of each log they mill. The HM122 portable sawmill is an efficient and reliable tool for producing high-quality lumber from hardwood logs.
