Tigercat releases its new 855E carrier platform

The carrier can be configured as a harvester, feller buncher or shovel logger

The Tigercat purpose-built 855 forestry carrier platform continues to improve. It now comes with an advanced cab. The 855E is purpose designed for tough forestry terrain and climates. The 855 E-series carriers have a greatly improved line of sight with larger side windows, narrower side posts, more cab lights and standard equipped skyVIEW and rearVIEW camera systems. These features all allow the operater to have greatly improved operator visibility.

Tigercat has put much thought into the ergonomic design of the new 855E. Operator comfort is key to both high productivity and low mechanical downtime. The cab has a redesigned hinge, resulting in the front access door requiring much less effort when entering and exiting the cab. The electronic control module is now a larger touch screen display on an adjustable mount and frequently used controls have been integrated into the joystick pods for ease of use.

Improved sealing around the exterior of the cab significantly reduces noise levels inside. Operators can now take full advantage of the new Bluetooth® sound system with hands free calling. Source
