Log hardness (hardwood like teak or oak increases load)
Blade sharpness (dull blade = higher fuel burn)
Cut speed / feed rate
Engine size & efficiency
Hydraulic systems (log loaders, clamps add extra consumption)
Idle time (many small sawmills burn 0.5–1 L/hr even idle)
Simple real-world benchmark
A typical 40 HP portable diesel band sawmill:
Light cutting: ~3 L/hr
Heavy hardwood cutting: ~4–5 L/hr
Idle + working average: ~3.5–4 L/hr
