  1. Replacing an engine on a mill is comparable to replacing an engine in an automobile. If you are uncomfortable with such a project, hire a local mechanic or schedule your mill for installation at the nearest Wood-Mizer location.
  2. Some modifications and additional parts may be necessary, please call 1.800.525.8100 and ask for an engine specialist before ordering or upgrading your engine.
  3. Use this conversion guide to find the correct engine for your mill.
