Abstract
An adjustable support for a conveyor has paired cylinders pivotally attached to the frame of the conveyor. The frame supports the mechanism for transporting a lumber product. Each pair of cylinders is mounted in a crossed configuration which provides rigid support for the frame. The controlled extension and retraction of the rods of the cylinders provides for elevating the frame, lowering the frame, side shifting of the frame as well as longitudinal tilt and lateral skewing of the frame.
