ABSTRACT:
A method and device for removing sawdust from a deck surface (24) of a wooden pallet (10) is provided. The device comprises a rotary brush (124) having a working length (WL) defined by a plurality of bristles (130). The working length (WL) is greater than a width (WD) of the deck surface (24). A mechanism (136) is connected with the rotary brush (124) and is actuatable for rotating the rotary brush (124). A support (32) rotatably supports the rotary brush (124). The mechanism (136) is fixed relative to the support (32). Rotation of the rotary brush (124) when the bristles (130) are in contact with the deck surface (24) of the wooden pallet (10) simultaneously removes sawdust and debris across the width (WD) of the deck surface (24).
