A SMALL HARVESTER WITH<br />

HUGE POTENTIAL<br />

Several evaluation studies have shown<br />

that stand-operating harvesters produce<br />

the most consistent resu<strong>lt</strong>s during<br />

mechanical thinning. <strong>Rottne</strong> H-8 has all<br />

the qualities required to ensure successful<br />

thinning using secondary roads in the<br />

stand.<br />

The pendulum arm system means that<br />

the machine width is always maintained,<br />

even when the ground is uneven or you<br />

encounter an obstacle. The operator sits<br />

in a cab offering superb all-round visibility,<br />

while hydrostatic operation and precise<br />

tracking make this small yet flexible<br />

harvester even more versatile and easy to<br />

move forwards or backwards with great<br />

precision.<br />

It is easier to select the right tree when<br />

the operator is never more than 6-7 metres<br />

from the trees to be felled and the<br />

risk of damage to standing forest is also<br />

reduced considerably more than if thinning<br />

were to be performed from a strip<br />

road 10-12 metres away.<br />

When the harvester is equipped with a<br />

system for GPS/GIS, the forwarder operator<br />

can access tract maps with working<br />

routes and timber volumes per strip<br />

road to ensure that everything is being<br />

collected. The landowner can also access<br />

detailed information about thinning for his<br />

forest management plan.<br />
