Hakki Pilke Raven 33 Manual page 22

The maximum operating angle for the out-feed conveyor is 40°. The maximum angle is indicated on the
label (Figure 18) and the instructions attached to the out-feed conveyor.
The tension (and alignment) of the out-feed conveyor's belt is adjusted with nuts A (2 pcs) by loosening the
adjustment nut on the side to which you wish the belt to run. (Figure 17a)
The out-feed conveyor is equipped with an automatic debris removal device. It separates debris and saw-
dust from the processed firewood.
The following factors significantly affect the operation of the debris removal device: the angle of the out-
feed conveyor, the speed of the belt and the distance and height of separation plate C from the upper roll-
er of the conveyor. In other words, the debris separation result is better the steeper the angle (however, no
more than 40 degrees), the lower the speed and the longer the distance between separation plate C and
the upper roller. The distance of separation plate C is set to the standard position at the factory in conjunc-
tion with the testing of the machine. However, the adjustment can be changed, if necessary.
The optimal configuration can be determined by trying different settings. The split logs should only just
pass over the plate. The separation plate can be adjusted in the longitudinal direction using adjustment
screws B (in Figure 26), and in the vertical direction using the bolts at the end of the separation plate.
Speed control valve 97895, which can be used to dramatically increase the efficiency of debris removal, is
available for the Raven 33 out-feed conveyor as an accessory.
If necessary, separation plate C can also be disabled (when using the Hakki Pilke Cleaner cleaning drum, for
example) as follows:
1. Detach one end of spring A (in Figure 26a, 2 pcs) from separation plate C.
2. Turn plate C to the lower position, as shown in Figure 26a.
Lock it in the lower position using latch B (in Figure 26a).
