The super duty 20-tonne 1075B is Tigercat's highest capacity forwarder. It is well suited to the most demanding final fell applications in extreme terrain and sensitive sites.
The 1075B forwarder has strong frames, large pins and steer cylinders and a durable centre section with tapered roller bearings in the articulation and oscillation joints.
Most of the B-series improvements have taken place in the cab. Sound levels are under 66 db at full 2,200 rpm engine speed. Visibility, lighting, climate control and defogging capability have all been enhanced.
The cabin interior finish has been significantly upgraded with improved ergonomics and an automotive style finish. The joystick pods are easier to operate with only one function per control. The potentiometer (controlling maximum speed) is helpful in tough terrain. Operators will immediately notice increased comfort levels and reduced fatigue over long shifts.
