. Canadian forest industries 1903. Lumbering; Forests and forestry; Forest products; Wood-pulp industry; Wood-using industries. The " TOWER 99 One-man Two-saw Trimmer. The Simplest and Easiest Trimmer to Operate on the Market. ' With this Trimmer one man can easily trim the output of a mill cutting- up to 30,000 ft. in ten hours. The iaws travel in unison, in opposite directions. Each revolution of the crank in- creases or decreases the distance exactly two feet. The crank is journaled to one of the chain carriers. The operator thus shifts the saws and walks toward the board to be trimmed, simultaneously, thus combining two operations in one. This saves time. The chain carriers are shifted by a DOUBLE rack and pinion—one in front and one in 1 he rear. It is thus absolutely impossible for them to bind. There are 2 fepds—one thirty feet per minute, the other fifty. The feed can be instantly started, stopped or chang-ed—without stopping the saws—by simply shifting a lever. The same lever controls both feeds. The arbor is of ample size. It has a total of six bearings, two of which are on the chain carriers. The arbor is thus always supported close to the saws, regardless of their position. The drive pulley may be at either end or in the center. Five sizes, cutting up to 16, 18, 20, 22 and 24 feet respectively. We also manufacture : The Gordon Hollow Blast Grate. The TOWER 2 and 3-saw Edgers, Improved.
