New 3.3 version of the Logset 4F GT forwarder released

Logset 4F GT is the smallest forwarder in the Logset machine range.

The machine has a loading capacity of 10 tons, and it is especially designed for thinning operations in dense forests. Due to its small size, the Logset 4F GT literally floats on various types of terrain with minimum ground damage.

The Logset 4F GT, the last in the forwarder lineup to receive upgrades, now benefits from the 3.3 update package. In response to market demands, the bogie has been redesigned in a heavier-duty version, capable of supporting 24-inch wheels. Although the Logset 4F GT is a compact forwarder, it is powerful: the 4.9-litres AGCO Power engine develops 140 kW (190 hp). Available with the Mesera 83 crane with 106 kNm lifting capacity. The crane is available with two different length options for a customized reach.

Additional enhancements to the forwarder include:

  • More than 10 cm (4 in) reduction in overall machine length for improved manoeuvrability.
  • A more compact and ergonomic engine compartment.
  • With its 140 kW (190 hp) engine, a strong Mesera crane offering 106 kNm of lifting force, and 140 kN tractive force, the 4F GT is a compact yet powerful forwarder in the 10-tonne load capacity class.

The cabin is efficiently insulated from noise and the surrounding large windows allow an excellent visibility on all tires as well as in all directions. With the user-friendly TOC 2 control system the operator can operate both crane and transmission with an incredible precision. The operator can work fast and efficiently without strain. The automatic cruise control allows the driving speed to be easily adjusted with a potentiometer.

The cabin offers good comfort and an unobstructed view when driving and loading. It is spacious and has various large storage compartments. The forwarder is easy to manoeuvre because the wheels are in sight all the time.

The forwarder is equipped with the user-friendly TOC 2 machine control system. Thanks to the control system, the operator saves a great deal of fuel, and the driving experience is soft and smooth. The crane controls can be adapted for each operator to ensure a fast and accurate control of the crane. Source
