WELCOME TO THE “OL YELLER” INFO SITE
Posted in 1 on April 23, 2009 by olyellerEach drywasher painstakenly handcrafted and assembled with premium hardwood, heavyduty hightorque gearmotor, quality materials, a few innovative ideas and the love of PROSPECTING.
The design is based on a 1930’s hand crank unit. A time proven machine still in use every season provideing GOLD.
Each “OL YELLER” comes with a “six pac” not the drinking kind — more like carburation setups on the supercar engines of yesteryear.
The “six pac” is a unique bellows system I created after months of experimentation.
This system allows a FLATTER riffle tray angle which contributes to catching and retaining MORE and FINER heavier matieral that passes over the tray.
Other features I have incorporated include a quick attach/release riffle tray hold down system located at the rear and front of the tray so theres nothing to interfere with the collapsing of the unit when folding it up for transport and storage.
OL YELLER has metal protectors on all four legs and surrounding the grizzly area to make it last thru many seasons of use.
The hopper will hold a little better than 5 gallons of material.
There is an on / off switch along with the battery lead cable clamps this switch will help in conserving battery power with its convienence of use. How many times have you just let the machine run while doing more digging or attending to something else? Now a quick flick shuts it down when not running your dirt thru.
I am in the process of designing a 2 SPEED circuit for differences in soil conditions. This will soon be an OPTION for every drywasher.
A bellows box locking tab is provided for use when folding ol yeller up, this aids in containing the unit as it is being folded, another innovative part of construction to simpilfy the machines usage.
A carrying handle is also provided which serves to also lock up the machine when in the closed or folded position.
I saved the BEST PART FOR LAST…… “OL YELLER” weighs in at just about 20 POUNDS, can you believe it !!!! I don’t know of another machine comparable in size, weight, and recovery.
With reasonable care “OL YELLER” will give many many years of service and may even be passed down in the family to another generation of PROSPECTORS.
