Areas of Application

The bark-stripper is apt for peeling trunks of any strength. The thicker and
harder the bark, the more economical is its application. The constructive
formation of the peeling barrel causes a high chipping performance at minimal
effort. Hard metal pins arranged directly behind the knives are formed in such
a way that the distance of the peeling knives from the trunk wood is observed
automatically, and regardless of the bark strength, on the entire trunk length.
Branch departures and thin branches are easily and cleanly bevelled. The
barrel is straight and moulds a plane area similar to the parer. So, in working
at the side of the trunk and in peeling root departures, the device can be
applied in an angular or diagonal manner. The device may only be used as
intended for the listed operations.

Mounting the bark - stripper to the Chain Saw

The stripper can be assembled to ordinary power saws from 1.2 kW. The
fitting attached parts for the saws mentioned in the accompanying documents
and bills of delivery are included in delivery. The peeling head carrier is to be
assembled instead of the sword. For assembly, the chain folding plate, sword
and chain pinion must be removed. The chain pinion is replaced by the
coupling barrel with V-belt pulley (0206). The peeling head carrier (0201) is
fastened instead of the sword in connection with the chain wheel cap. The
peeling head (0202) is slided onto the peeling head carrier (0201). The V-belt
is laid onto the V-belt pulley (0206) of the coupling barrel and the V-belt pulley
(0204) of the peeling head. The V-belt is prestressed and the peeling head
(0202) is fastened by tightening the clamping screw (0207). Subsequent
clamping, as with the normal chain, is done with the chain adjuster of the
power saw. Sharp metal edges at the power saw – in the V-belt area – should
be rounded. The supply of chain oil must be prevented by shutting down the
oil pump or by emptying the oil tank.

Starting Operation of the bark - stripper

In this version, the device may only be operated in agriculture and forestry by
instructed persons. The relevant regulations for the prevention of accidents
are to be observed. Apply the bark stripper to the trunk surface at running saw
engine only at full revolution, and lead the bark stripper over the trunk
continuously and without pressure. Should the stripper cut too deep or even
chip, the knives are to be set back by around 0.2 mm. If the cutting depth is
too short, the knives are to be set forward by around 0.2 mm. The required
knife adjustment is based on the type of wood to be peeled and must be newly
adjusted as the case arises. It is to be observed that the hard metal pins on
the knife disc (0211) always stand right to the knife edge. All 4 knives must
have the same adjustment and the same measure to the hard metal pins. Dull
knives can be reground by hand at normal grinding wheels. The edge angle is
40°.

Instructions for Use

Before every application, the trunks to be peeled are to be checked. Nails,
sticky sand and other foreign material must be removed before planing, as
otherwise the peeling knives will be damaged. On actuation, the machine is to
be safely supported and held tight, at which the peeling barrel must stand free.
Apply the peeling device to the plane trunk surface only with the saw engine
running at full revolution. For the use of the saw, read the operating
instructions of the saw manufacturer.
