Tigercat L870C feller buncher

The L870C feller buncher is best suited to high production final felling on slopes and extreme terrain.  
With a refined, efficient hydraulic system, high capacity cooling, unmatched access to all major components, a superior operator's station, the Tigercat 860C/870C remains the benchmark of the industry for track feller bunchers.  
The L870C is the result of over a decade of ongoing engineering enhancements and field testing and in some of the harshest forest environments on the planet. The machines operate in ambient temperatures ranging from -40 to 50 degrees Celsius.
The long, nine roller FH400 undercarriage provides exceptional stability. Tigercat's industry leading leveling system is extremely durable with thick steel plate, large pins and tapered roller bearings. The L870C has the power and stability to fell tall, oversize and top heavy timber on slopes and uneven terrain. The machine is well proven in the mountainous regions of British Columbia and the Pacific Northwest.
