Adjusting the log length
The Hakki Pilke 50 Pro features a hydraulic measuring device for cutting firewood, with an adjustment
value of approx. 20 to 60 cm.
When sawing, the log limiter plate (B in Figure 16) always moves approx. 5 cm backwards with the help of
a hydraulic cylinder to ensure that the log does not get stuck and falls freely into the splitting groove.
Before splitting, the operator must always ensure that the log is not oversized and does not connect with
limiter plate B.
1.
Turn the machine off and open the machine’s guard.
2.
Adjust the log length limiter to the desired length by releasing the lock in Figure 16 to the
open position (as shown in the smaller figure) and sliding limiter plate B to the desired
position.
3.
Turn lock A in Figure 16 back to the closed position.
4.
If necessary, you can fine-tune the measuring device by loosening nut C in Figure 16 and
rotating adjustment screw D to the desired direction. Tightening the screw increases log
length and vice versa. When you are finished, lock nut C back into place. (If the log length is
standard, you can fine tune the log length to minimise the amount of waste wood).
