Power Train
Exceptional power and fuel efficiency
Cat C7 Engine
The Cat C7 engine with ACERT technology gives exceptional
power and fuel efciency. Meets Tier 3, Stage IIIA emission
requirements. Tier 3 refers to EPA (U.S) standards. Stage IIIA
refers to European standards.
Engines include electronic governing, cold mode start
strategy, automatic altitude compensation, electronic
diagnostics and fault monitoring.
Modulated Fan Speed
The engine fan speed control is modulated by the IQAN
system based on system temperatures to provide fuel savings
and precise temperature control.
Hydrostatic Drive System
The forestry designed hydrostatic drive system gives
exceptional power, efciency and controllability unequaled
in the industry for consistently high performance in all
terrain applications.
Exceptional Cooling Capability
Enlarged cooling capacities provide the high heat rejection
capability required for long distance hauling and utilizing
the high tractive effort capabilities.
Tough Suspension
Leading design geared bogies and rigid front axle (6WD) are
utilized for superior strength and maximum serviceability.

outstanding durability and service life.
The front and rear frame structures are manufactured
to stand up in the most demanding forest applications.
Oscillation and Articulation
Extreme duty center articulation and oscillation points are
designed for long service life.
The cast knuckle articulation includes tapered roller bearings
and hardened expander center joint pins.
Loader
Solid, Reliable Control
The forwarder loader is designed for hard, demanding
work. Decades of experience can be seen in the innovative
details, durable structure and reliable technology.
Speed and smoothness are combined to get the work
done safely, reliably, and without downtime.

Hydraulics
Balanced hydraulics deliver continuous, reliable and responsive control
Hydraulic Pump Is Powerful, Responsive, Quiet
Designed for continuous, efcient and reliable operation, the forwarders axial piston hydraulic pump
meets stringent requirements for noise, efciency, controllability and durability.
High load bearings are designed to ensure excellent reliability and long life. A spring assisted servo piston
ensures rapid on-stroke performance, especially in low standby pressure conditions.
The rigid casing design ensures that all internal forces are well supported. Hydrostatic swash plate balancing
together with a rigid support mechanism enhances the power density and reduces noise emissions.
Valves Are Load Sensing, Pressure Compensated
The valve system has proven reliability in forestry applications with its fuel efcient load sensing pressure
compensated technology.
The valve has been given excellent simultaneous operating characteristics, which enable several machine
functions to be operated responsively at the same time, regardless of the sizes of individual loads.
Each section is designed specically for the ow and pressure of the function, therefore optimizing
machine functionality and fuel efciency. Ramped and proportional crane functions saves mechanical
wear and tear on boom structures. Steering sensors provide feedback through the IQAN control system
to cushion stop points of the cylinders.

Operator Station
Efficient, productive and spacious
Maximum Production, Comfortable Work
Spacious purpose built forestry cab with excellent sight
lines to the work area. The forward positioned side posts
provide maximum visibility for the loader working range.
The ventilation system provides superb air ow for heating
and cooling functions. Rened instrumentation and plenty
of storage areas allow an uncluttered working environment.
State-Of-The-Art Controls
The forwarder utilizes the latest technology with CAN-Bus
controlled IQAN, switch panels, and engine control.
The IQAN MDL master control has a 165 mm (6.5 in)
transective TFT color display which includes excellent
on-screen diagnostics. Units are congured for English
or metric display.
Low effort ergonomic joy stick controls provide easy effort
control of the loader functions. Loader functions are
congurable for SAE or Forestry patterns.
Loader control allows input into 3 selectable and adjustable
operator interphases, plus a factory default. An automotive
style, tuned hydrostatic propel system allows for all types
of terrain and load characteristics.

Serviceability
Easy to access, easy to maintain
Tilting Hood Provides Easy Access
A forward tilting front hood assembly together with the side
tilting cab design provide full access to the engine, hydrostat,
and hydraulic components.
Better Diagnostics, Grouped Service Points
Simplied service and electronic diagnostics help to increase
productivity and machine availability. Grouped lubrication
points and lines reduce service times.
Easy Fluid Changes
Removable cover plates allow full access for cleaning and
service. An electric rell pump to add oil into the hydraulic
tank maintains system cleanliness by passing all added
oil through the ltering system. A vacuum pump on the
hydraulic tank reduces exposure to oil loss during service
and repair.
Support
Services to help you lower costs
