Operating the Roller 

3.1.  Hydraulic drive 

 

Connect the hydraulic hoses so that the hydraulic flow direction is correct. 

 

Adjust the rotating speed using the hydraulics’ speed adjustment valve. 

3.2.  Electrical drive 

 

 

Make sure that the rotation direction of the screen and the output conveyor are correct. 

 

If  necessary,  reverse  the  rotation  direction  by  inverting  the  phase  from  the  phase 
inverter located in the plug. 

 

Switch on the output conveyor and the screen before loading any wood into the Roller. 

 

Switch  on  the  screen  by  turning  the  starter  switch  to  the  right  and  press  the  start 
button. 

 

When  Roller  is  stopped  by  pressing  emergency  stop  or  reversed  it  will  start  again  by 
pressing start button.  

 

If  the  screen  stops  due  to  a  jammed  piece  of  firewood,  etc.,  you  can  reverse  it  by 
turning the switch to the left. The switch cannot be locked in the reverse position. 

 

If the screen remains jammed for an extended period of time, the starter’s thermal relay 
may trip. If this happens, turn the switch to the 0 position and reset the thermal relay by 
pressing the R button. 

 

When loading with a front loader, it is crucial that the Roller is only  loaded with small 
amounts  of firewood  at  a  time.  Loading  the Roller  with  a  large  amount  of firewood  at 
once will reduce screening efficiency and may clog up the output conveyor. 
 

 
 

3.3.  Adjusting firewood throughput rate 

 

The  throughput  rate  of  the  firewood  can  be  adjusted  by  adjusting  the  Roller’s  angle. 
(Figure 1.) 

 

In a hydraulic machine, the rotation speed of the screen and the output conveyor can 
be  adjusted  by  adjusting  the  speed  adjustment  valves  next  to  the  hydraulic  motor. 
There are separate valves for adjusting the screen and the conveyor.  

 

When loading with a front loader, it is crucial that the Roller is only  loaded with small 
amounts  of firewood  at  a  time.  Loading  the Roller  with  a  large  amount  of firewood  at
