Crawler forestry harvester LH830C

Tigercat LH830C harvester The Tigercat LH830C harvester is a powerful, zero tail-swing carrier suited to steep terrain. The ER boom system is contributes to overall efficiency and reduces operator fatigue. Tight tuck boom geometry minimizes residual stand damage in thinning applications. With an efficient hydraulic system and powerful swing torque, the LH822C can process heavy timber with large limbs. Purpose built for severe forest duty, the Tigercat LH830C harvester offers many advantages over excavator conversions such as forest duty construction throughout, superior cooling capacity and harvester head optimized hydraulics. Tigercat's industry leading leveling undercarriage is large and very stable, allowing the LH830C to harvest timber on slopes and challenging terrain. Tight tuck ER boom system with quick cycle times. ER increases productivity, reduces fuel consumption and requires less effort from the operator. Optional telescopic boom system. Excellent access to pumps and valves; far superior to competing zero tail-swing machines. Tilt out compartment for engine and swing-out doors to access hydraulic pumps and filters. Automatic variable speed cooling fan with automatic reversing cycle for improved fuel economy and quieter operation. Large air intake for cooling system is at the rear of the machine for reduced debris build-up. 367 kN (82,600 lbf) tractive effort for climbing and high performance on steep slopes. Large front-entry cab with floor to ceiling front windshield and side door accessing expansive area behind the seat.
