Saw Doctor

A Saw Doctor conducts repairs on saws, sawmilling equipment and other related machinery. You might assess faulty equipment to determine problem issues, fix or reposition blades or replace faulty parts. Saw Doctors may also conduct scheduled maintenance on sawing machinery and ensure equipment is safe for use.

Saw Doctors should be safety focused and have strong observational abilities. Attention to detail is important and you must have strong technical skills. Saw Doctors must be able to adapt their skills to suit a range of circumstances and you’ll need to be able to communicate clearly with clients and colleagues.
