THE FINN BARK BLOWER AND ITS FUNCTION:
The FINN Bark Blower is an apparatus for conveying and discharging bulk materials, such as bark mulch,
at a fast and uniform rate utilizing a minimum amount of manpower. The product to be used is generally
composted and processed and used as a soil amendment, a ground cover for erosion and weed control, or for
decorative purposes on landscaping (bark mulch).
This manual is intended to provide step-by-step instructions on the operation, care, and maintenance of
the Bark Blower. In addition, it contains illustrations and a complete list of parts and components for easy
identification.
HOW THE BARK BLOWER WORKS:
The bulk material is loaded into the hopper by a loader or by a feed elevator. Located at the bottom of the
hopper is a drag conveyor, which conveys the bulk material to an opening containing a feed roll. The feed
roll and drag conveyor feed the bulk material into a rotary air valve (the “airlock”). The rotary air valve
is specifically designed and built to handle tough, fibrous material. The function of the rotary air valve is
to take the bulk material into open pockets exposed to the outside air and to convey it to an area where the
pocket is closed off. At that point a high pressure air stream, created by the blower, is channeled through the
pocket carrying the material off and through the hose for discharge.
IMPORTANT: For best results and to insure safe operation and long life of the
equipment, please read and follow all instructions carefully.
