Problem with Hakki pilke 1X37

I have an intermittent problem with the splitter on my processor. From time to time it will continue the splitting cycle without being reactivated. i cant really see where the problem is, everythings cleaned and doesnt seem to be any obstructions. has anyone had this problem before?

thanks

If it's anything like my Hawk was it's only a 5 minute job to sort, though I'm not sure if with the 1 X you need to take the infeed belt off to get at it.

Take the top cover off, theres a lever that the splitting ram casing (can't think of a better way to describe it) hits as it goes past each way and that's what sets the ram returning and then stops it on it's return stroke.

Set it running with the cover off (keep out of the way though) so you can see the bit of the ram you don't normally see and you'll see how the lever works - mine used to sometimes not quite hit the lever so not reset itself - it's been a while since I had it in bits but theres an adjuster for the bit that sets it going (mine was a bar with slots in it - slacken the two bolts and slide the plate up a bit - trial and error seemed to work with mine and from memory it didn't need much adjustment to sort it.

Hope that helps.

I have the same problem on my jappa processor it is when i start it up the splitter goes mad in and out non stop, then after 20 mins it just stops. is mine the same to cure? maybe they don't like winter:001_smile:

well hopefully this is the problem for mine, its bloody dangerous as it is!

I thought it was something to do with the oil because when it warms up it stops.

Yes it is a 700 a 1995 model have you got one? I also need a new blade for it do you use a tungston tipped one or one that you sharpen and set?

Look here for blades. 700mm x 35mm bore TCT. Only £124 inc vat and p&p.
