Today we put our new Japa 471 live deck to use. This is a VERY effective tool for our firewood production. Running logs thru the processor is much more efficient and we can make more firewood faster!

Love the new machine and love the fact that you are being able to test and display/advertise the new products for Japa. One thing Japa might want to look into is the saw dust extraction system. I can't believe they only have an opening in the frame. You might want to suggest to them that they develop some kind of chute, tube, blower, something. Your trash can idea is great, now if they can neatly and efficiently get the dust into it.

RPM has everything to with the speed at which these tractors operate. The hydraulic fluid flows faster as you raise the rpm. So, everything driven hydrostaticly will move faster. The forks get very "jerky" when the engine is revved up.

Nice work Joe. Nice to see you investment paying off. Would be interested to see what kind of maintenance is gonna be required. You know engine oil, grease, hydraulic oil filters etc. The removable splitter is neat. That would make sharpening easy. Always a good idea to cool down your equipment before shut down especially the diesel tractor. One thing I would add is a Optimate battery charger. It will always top up the battery for you and extent the battery life. For 50$ it will ensure that your day is going to start well.👍🇨🇦

@MPH-iq5md 3 года назад

Hi Joe, your process is looking super slick now! How long does it take to process a full cord? The thing that I really like is that you now have the flexibility to just keep running the Jappa without stopping, by getting someone (like a family member) to either run the machine or load poles onto the live bed. I guess, on a nice day, you can output on to the floor and scoop up with the Bobcat, you’ve just got so many options now! A couple of things which, I think, could be better: 1. The sawdust out feed at the back of the machine could do with a chute to make sure more goes into the bin, and less over the back of the machine. 2. The “interference” between the elevator steps and the strip seems a bit too much and a bit noisy.

Hi Joe: What length are you cutting the logs that you are putting through the Japa?

@ohiowoodburner 3 года назад

The logs are usually around 10--13 feet long. Sometimes shorter. My practice is to cut the logs in half before loading. Off the logger's truck they are around 20--22 feet long. The logs around here aren't perfectly straight so shorter logs lay better.

The chain lasts much longer than a typical session with a chainsaw. It will last between 5-6 cords.

Hi Joe, Enjoy your videos. You might want to look into Precision Manufacturing and their add a grapple for pallet forks. Seen it in operation and it seems it might serve you well with your Bobcat. John Montelione

The bulk storage solution is becoming a necessity Harry. I have a HS boy that stacks for me but he has been missing these past two weeks.

Your steps your taking with your business are making so what sense which I know that’s the plan lol!! But each step you take just blends right with the next planned step !

@ohiowoodburner 3 года назад

It's interesting to me Trent how this all is coming together. I really do think this is an indicator of the firewood industry as a whole. There are A LOT of super cool machines out there and all you have to do is find the right ones that fit your operation. Joe
