Posch S-360 sawdust extractor

[Tomatin Firewood]

Hi

 

I have bitten the bullet and upgraded to Posch s360 with log deck but I do not have a sawdust extractor. Anyone with one of these machines able to recommend a decent extractor that is not ridiculous money?

 

Also looking for around 200T of hardwood for next season. I am 20 mins south of Inverness.

 

Many Thanks

Make sure you empty regularly as sawdust invariably heats up/goes mouldy!

Keep it dry 240 volt.

 

I rate this highly for the money, As usual you get what you pay for. Good luck

I was quoted £1,000 plus vat but inc delivery for hydraulic one a year ago. If you're cutting lot of wood and can find a use for the sawdust then arguably it's worth it, not unknown to lose half a day cleaning up all the sawdust around ours.

 

I'll have HW ideal for processors later this year but located near Stirling so haulage may kill it

I use a 3hp sip electric motor extractor like the one in the link above, threw all the bags and connected a pipe to the outlet that goes straight into a grain trailer.

Do you not need to dry it before you burn it for a clean efficient burn or just throw it in?

Thanks for suggestions. I will be looking for one to run of the back of the tractor as I do not have close electric supply.

Does anyone use a sawdust extractor to full bulk bags?

Keen on the idea, not 100% sure of the logistics

Hi we use a small section of culvert pipe cut at an angle at one end it works a treat, stops sawdust blowing under tractor just check it regularly to make sure its not blocked. The best thing about this fix is its free.
