How Can You Save Fuel with a Firewood Processor?
Fuel consumption plays an important role in the overall cost of firewood production.
Key Ways to Save Fuel
- Ensure sufficient hydraulic flow
- Operate at lower engine speeds whenever possible
- Use the correct hose diameters to minimise pressure losses
- Avoid unnecessarily high operating pressures
Work Efficiently
- Make efficient use of the Short/Long function
- Avoid unnecessary downtime
- Optimise firewood length
- Organise the work area efficiently between the log storage area and the splitting location
Advantages of Mounted Firewood Processors
- No additional hydraulic drive unit required
- Lower overall fuel consumption
- One carrier vehicle = lower operating costs
- Labour savings through one-person operation
- Reduced maintenance requirements
Conclusion
With the correct machine settings and an efficient working method, fuel consumption can be significantly reduced.
