Komatsu Forest release their new 855-3 forwarder

The 855-3 is a 14 ton forwarder that will help logging machine operators deliver productivity day after day.

The forwarder has the following main features:

  • Machine and crane control: Operators can monitor and control everything from engine and crane to the transmission and service ladders with the state-of-the-art MaxiXT system. All operator-specific functions can be fine-tuned to achieve the sensitivity and speed each individual operator prefers.
  • Smooth and fast transport: Chassis and suspensions designed to manoeuvre through even the most rugged forests when fully loaded. Komatsu Comfort Bogie axles with a high portal offset and V-shaped frames provide high ground clearance.
  • HD stacking blade: If your operation requires ground or stump leveling on tough terrain, an optional heavy-duty stacking blade is available. Mounted with a high angle of departure for climbing obstacles, there’s no interference between blade, battery boxes or hood guard. Source
