Hand crews and fallers live on their saws. Over a long fire, chains dull, bars wear and saws break, and every crew sitting without a working saw is line not getting built. A mobile chainsaw repair unit sets up in camp and turns saws around overnight so crews leave in the morning ready to cut.
KDT's unit is a fully self-contained trailer with a quiet generator, a covered customer service area, bench chain breaker and rivet spinner, electric chain grinders, chain compatible with STIHL and Husqvarna saws, and a parts inventory for chainsaws and portable pumps. Every saw is logged in and out with the requesting resource and order number, and customers get a receipt at drop-off.
