GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To avoid damage or injury, exercise extreme caution when operating this machine and when
connecting the machine to a power source such as a tractor.
To avoid accidents, the machine must not be operated by persons who are intoxicated, under
the influence of drugs, excessively tired, or otherwise not in sufficient control of their actions.
Connection of the machine to the power source, such as a tractor, must be carried out by only
one person at any one time. The danger zone around the machine is 10 metres. Except for the
person connecting the machine or the operator, no other person is allowed within this area
during connection and operation. Do not leave the machine running unsupervised!
If a person other than the operator remains within the risk zone, the operator must make them
aware of the dangers related to the operation of the machine.
The work area, including the ground surface, must be prepared prior to operating the machine
to ensure safe working conditions.
The Hakki Pilke circular saw with splitting device is designed for making firewood from
delimbed trees or other pre-processed wood, such as pre-cut logs. Do not use wood that has
been processed in any other way, such as construction waste. The machine manufacturer is
not liable for any damage or injury to the machine or operator caused by processing such
wood.
The required log length for splitting is 30–40 cm.
The maximum thickness for both splitting and cutting is 25 cm.
The maximum log length for cutting is 4 metres.
The machine may be operated only by persons who are:
- familiar with these instructions;
- familiar with the risk situations that may occur during operation of the machine;
- familiar with what to do in the event of a dangerous situation during operation.
If the machine is faulty or contains a broken part that the operator is not able to repair or
replace, the operator must contact the seller, manufacturer or importer of the machine.
The operator must always check all components before connecting the machine to the tractor
or operating it. Under no circumstances should the machine be used if wear or cracks are
detected in its structure or components.
Any faulty parts must be repaired or replaced with new ones.

Commissioning a New Machine
Dispose of all machine packaging in an environmentally responsible manner.
Installing the Cross-cut Cradle Extension
Adjusting the Cross-cut Cradle Inclination
1. Slot the cross-cut
cradle extension into
the square pipe on
the cradle frame.
2. Adjust the
extension to the
desired length and
secure it in place
with the locking nut.
Cradle
cover
Rocking cover
Adjust the cradle's extreme position (towards
the user) using the nut on the lower part of the
cradle. There should be approx. 3 mm between
the cradle cover and the rocking cover.

Adjusting the Splitting Table
Connecting the Machine to a Tractor
Always make sure you are on your own when connecting the machine. Make sure that the
tractor cab is free of people or animals (e.g. dog) which might accidentally nudge the controls
during connection. Before connection, check all connection components of the tractor and
machine. Any faulty parts must be repaired or replaced with new ones. Connecting the
machine to faulty devices or parts is strictly forbidden. To avoid human error, always carry
out the connection carefully and systematically without interruption, making sure nothing is
missed. Secure the connection pins with the appropriate cotters. After finishing the
connection, check that the procedure has been completed successfully. When connecting the
PTO shaft, follow the instructions for safe connection provided by the shaft manufacturer.
Connecting an unshielded shaft to the machine is strictly forbidden!
The splitting table
distance can be
adjusted using the
adjustment nut at the
bottom of the table.
Never set the splitting table
distance so that the tip of the
splitting cone protrudes from the
table cover! Set it as shown in
the figure!

Electrically Driven Circular Saw with Splitting Device
In addition to the operation, maintenance, and safety instructions presented in this manual,
the following must also be considered when commissioning and operating an electrically
driven circular saw with splitting device:
The machine must be placed on a secure base to prevent tipping.
Operating the machine on a slope or otherwise inclined surface is forbidden.
The machine is equipped with a 4 kW electric motor and is fitted with a safety switch and
start/stop switch. The plug current rating of the machine is 16 A, and the required fuse rating
is 10 A (slow). Use of a residual-current device is recommended.

Ensure safe electric connection of the machine:
- The extension cord must be of sufficient rating and must be intact.
- If the extension cord is in danger of being walked on or driven over, it must be buried or
covered with an appropriate protective material across the entire width of the route.
- Always route the power cord to the side that the machine's power plug is located.
If the extension cord is routed to the machine via the side you are working, the cord must be
buried carefully and covered so that it cannot be touched while working.
- The cord coming to the machine must be long enough, and it must not be strained when the
machine is moved.

The machine start button is the green button on the box.
The red button is the stop button.
Make sure that the motor starts running in the correct direction when you start it!
The correct direction of rotation is marked on the blade cover.
After replacement of the power plug, the machine must always be started so that it can
be stopped immediately if the motor's direction of rotation is incorrect.
The motor's rotation direction may be reversed only by persons authorised to do so.
Never move a running machine! The machine must always be stopped before moving it!
Never stop a rotating saw blade or splitting cone with wood, other object or with your hand.
The blade shaft will rotate for a while after the motor is switched off. Let it rotate and wait
until the machine has stopped completely.
The machine must always be stopped for service or cleaning.
Test Run
A test run must always be carried out before putting the machine into operation.
1. Without using wood, check that the splitting cradle moves freely to the end of its
travel distance, and then returns to the initial position by itself. For adjusting the
splitting cradle, see page 5!
2. Check that the cross-cut cradle moves freely to the end of its travel distance, and
then returns to the initial position by itself. For adjusting the cross-cut cradle, see
page 4! If the cradles do not operate properly despite adjustments, contact the
manufacturer or the seller of the machine.
3. Start the machine. If the machine is tractor-driven, set the machine to correct rotation
speed by adjusting the tractor's engine speed (PTO shaft speed: 540 rpm ). An
electrically driven machine rotates automatically at the correct speed!
4. Check that the emergency stop functions properly. See the instructions on
operation/testing (page 13) and adjustment (pages 19–20).
