Productivity follows wherever you go.
With a D-Series Harvester, you’re sure to make the most out of every hour spent in the woods. The boom,
head, cab, and overall structure are tough enough to stand up to anything you or nature dishes out. That means
big-time mobility and unbeatable productivity in dense stands, fi nal fellings and even steep terrain hillsides.

logical motion. Four different boom
reach lengths are available. These
durable booms will reduce service time.

the entire tree processing cycle with the touch of a button. Set your
log size and length to get the maximum volume and quality out of
each and every log.
Timbermatic 300 System: Effi cient and easy to use, this system

has been designed with the latest forestry company requirements
and operators in mind.
Comfort: Effi cient air conditioning, sound insulation and fully

adjustable seat.
Tilt and turn: The cab can turn by +/- 50 degrees and tilt in all
4
directions either automatically through the Timbermatic 300 system
or by manual control.

Visibility: Visibility is maximized with large, tinted polycarbonate
windows, well-guarded sunlight, and climate-controlled interiors.
Total Machine Control: Industry-leading Total Machine Control system
enables the operator to match application, terrain, and capabilities.
It automatically adjusts travel speed and braking to ground conditions.
Cab and Boom Sync: When set on automatic control, the turning of
the cab follows the turning of the boom at the speed or angle that the
operator has programmed into the system. The tilt function of the cab
works similarly, following the slopes of the terrain.
Rotating and Leveling Cab: The rotating and leveling cab provides
operator comfort and increased visibility to every cut.

A machine that stands up to any stand.
Designed with durability in mind, D-Series Harvesters are built to last in a variety of terrains and working conditions.
Each machine houses charge-air-cooled John Deere engines, high-walker axles, which are stronger with more ground
clearance, and industry-exclusive, front-balanced bogie axles for maximum tractive effort—no matter the terrain. It’s
8
9
strong components combined in one smart design.
Frame Structure and Middle Joint: Durability is built into the frame structure
and the middle joint resulting in a well-balanced unit with a powerful frame brake.
Parallel Boom: The parallel boom is proven to be heads above the competition
when it comes to reliability.
Engines: John Deere turbocharged diesel engines are number one in power
and high torque-on-demand at low rpms, with Deere reliability and no-surge
starts are built in.
Hydraulics: For sawing or at the start of feeding, the power-controlled,
load-sensing hydraulics increase oil fl ow to improve function speeds in
peak performance situations and increase the hydraulic system’s lifespan.
Easy Safe Maintenance Access: For easy maintenance, the
engine hood is comprised of two sections and is operated by
an electrical motor for easy access.

Engines (cooling and hydraulics):
The Tier 3-certifi ed engines include engine and powertrain
management enhancements (Eco III) to improve productivity and
fuel economy. The cooling system for the engine and hydraulics
remains effi cient in any conditions nature can throw at it.
Software: EcoPull optimizes the engine’s RPMs with a hydrostatic
transmission ratio, so you can run at the right speed at the
lowest possible RPMs. EcoPull automatically engages in slow
driving in the forest, and can also be engaged during fast driving
on level, easy terrain, helping to reduce fuel consumption and
lower daily operating costs.

Less expense. More productivity.
One smart choice.
Each D-Series Harvester features a super-effi cient, Tier 3-certifi ed engine with advanced software features that help
you get the most out of every drop of costly fuel. You get the most out of your machine’s performance while keeping
maintenance at a minimum and uptime at a maximum. Reap the benefi ts of a smart and productive machine.
