1 4-Post Head and Twin-Beam Cutting Deck – The same flat-cutting head design that's at the heart of every TimberKing mill. With two full-length steel box beams, the 1600's cutting deck offers 200% of the support of single-beam mills.
2 Basic Hydraulics – Blade feed and blade up/down operate with fingertip hydraulic controls. Other brands cost about the same, yet come with no hydraulics!
3 Available Hydraulic Log Loaders – The 1600 is the only mill in its class to offer this important labor-saver, usually available only on bigger, industrial mills.
4 Electric Blade Clutch – Flip of a switch engages and disengages blade. This feature comes standard — costs hundreds extra on other brands, if it's available at all!
5 Stationary Command Post & Direct Drive Hydraulics – Standard hydraulics and electric blade cluth mean you stand in one place to operate mill. No need to walk with cutting head. Hydraulic controls are direct-drive for smooth, variable control...eliminates jerky on/off found with electric-control hydraulics.
6 36" Capacity, 32" Cutting Throat – 1600 features the widest cutting throat of any major manufacturer's mid-size mill. It will cut straight through the center of a 32" diameter log and will handle logs up to 36" in diameter.
7 Hinged Blade Covers – Blade changes are a snap with the 1600's convenient hinged covers.
8 Baked-on Powder-Coat Finish – A mill is only as rugged as its paint job. Compare TimberKing's baked-on, UV-protected finish to sprayed-on water-based finishes found on other brands.
9 Protected Hydraulic Lines are tucked safely into industrial-grade energy chain...eliminates pinch-point wear and tree-branch abrasion common with over-head hydraulic lines.
10 Longest and Strongest Guarantee and Warranties – We're so confident in the rugged construction of the 1600 mill we back it up with TimberKing's exclusive 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee, 2-Year Limited Warranty, and 5-Year Limited Cutting-Deck Warranty.

1600 Q&A:

Q:
What makes the 1600 my best choice in a Mid-Size mill?

A: The 1600 offers many more standard features than the others in its class, including standard transport package and 4-Post Head. The Value Advantage of the 1600 really comes down to one word: HYDRAULICS. No other mill in this price range offers the hydraulic automation available on the 1600. Automatic blade feed and automatic blade up/down come standard. Compare to other brands where hand cranks power these operations. And optional hydraulic log loaders give the 1600 labor saving power that’s simply not available on other brands.

Q: Why does the 1600 have hydraulics ONLY on loaders, blade feed, and blade controls?

A: Hydraulics save time and effort but cost money. This is the mill for serious do-it-yourselfers: larger capacities and more convenience than our smaller mill, without the higher prices of our fully-hydraulic, pro sawyer mills.

Q: How do I know if the 1600 is the right mill for me?

A: If you have big plans but a tight budget, the 1600 could be a good choice for you. Think about the logs you’ll cut: the 1600 handles logs up to 17’ long by 36” diameter. Think about volume: the 1600 turns out a much as 2,500 board feet per day. Think about ease-of-use: the 1600’s key hydraulics make handling big logs easy. Finally, think about value. No other brand offers so many features and so much automation at anywhere near the 1600’s low price.

Q: Will the 1600 do what I need it to?

A: Here are some ways to make sure. Give us a call and we can tell you about the 1600 in detail. If you wish, you can see one in action: Chances are that there’s a 1600 operating somewhere near you, no matter where you live. Give us a call and we’ll set you up to contact the 1600 owner (or owner of any of our models) in your area. Finally, try it for yourself. Every TK mill comes with our exclusive 30-Day Money Back Guarantee. Try it for a full month in your woodlot. Not satisfied for any reason, back it comes.
