Maximum diameter for felling:
27.5 inch
Timbernator convinces through its rigid construction,
large tilt angle and immense feeding force.
The grapple opens to a maximum of 50 inches and
can cope with any challenge. The long chain belt
ensures a high feed rate with low contact pressure
and friction – resulting in great delimbing performance
of small – to large diameter timber.

The arrangement of the grapples simplifies the
work on hard and twisted timber, the large tilt angle
facilitates work on steep slopes.
Thanks to a sophisticated hydraulic system, Timbernator
can be controlled by most well-known
harvester control systems. But Timbernator is also
an independent harvester head which can process
timber with a diameter of 2 - 25 inch.
The maximum diameter for felling is 27.5 inch.

CARRIAGES
FIVE MODELLS, PATENTED
Carriage
LW 4500/I
• Overload protected brakes
• radio activated brakes for main lines and
skylines
• Large rollers
• With any other cable line system compatible
The skidding line is wound solely by the main
-and haul back line, no additional motor is
required.
All TST carriages feature radio activated brakes
for main lines and skylines which are activated
in an alternating fashion. This ensures
that the carriage can be moved whilst pulling
the logs and it enables them to be mounted in
arbitrary height, too. Ideal for economical work
with harvesters on entire trees, especially for
depositing those, with minimal damage to the
stock.
The sophisticated hydraulic system ensures
reliable operation with low maintenance and
allows for many switching operations to be
carried out without transferring the carriage.

OPERATION

„During the test run
the tower yarder is set
up to function at optimum
performance and our
customer and/or their staff
receive extensive training.
They will be able to carry
out maintenance work
independently during
future operations.“
