Rubber-tired forestry harvester 901

with crane

Compact and agile thinning harvester that can easily manoeuvre in dense stands. Despite its size, this harvester has a powerful crane and impressive work capacity, making it a productive partner in the forest. Features Tailored to your working day – Choose between two crane lengths: 10/11 metres – Several productive heads to choose between, depending on the type of forest you harvest – The Komatsu 901 is a six-wheeled machine with a design that makes it easier to manoeuvre and more compact in confined spaces when compared to an eight-wheeled machine. Agile and low-impact thinning When thinning in dense forests, a harvester manoeuvred with both ease and agility without impacting standing forest is a must. Our thinning harvesters are designed to do just that. Thanks to their compact size, they can operate in confined spaces and both the cab and the crane are designed for smooth movements to reduce the risk of damaging standing forest. Another advantage is our tried-and-tested parallel crane, which simplifies crane operation. Thanks to a combination of strength and speed, it also contributes to efficient work methods. A good overview simplifies the work While good visibility is always an advantage, in thinning it is especially important. Our harvester cab is designed to provide the operator with extremely good views of both the head and the treetops. Moreover, our thinning harvesters are also lower than the larger machines, enabling you to see the trees from a better angle when thinning. In a Komatsu harvester, you sit facing the same direction as the crane, which makes thinning easier as you can see exactly where you can extend the crane.
