Tigercat 726E mulcher with quick attach boom adapter
PARIS ON, MARCH 13, 2008 –
The M726E mulcher can be optioned with a new multi-function hydraulic system and quick attach boom adapter. This option allows the machine to be quickly converted from mulcher to feller buncher in order to fell merchantable timber as necessary.
Tigercat offers two purpose-built and field-proven four-wheel drive mulcher carriers for land improvement and clearing applications. The 300 hp M726E is designed to propel horizontal drum mulching attachments requiring up to 230 hp. The larger 415 hp M760 is a specialized machine for high duty cycle land clearing and right-of-way applications and is fitted to attachments requiring up to 400 hp.
Tigercat also offers a track mulcher carrier based on the 822C platform. The 300 hp M822C propels horizontal drum mulching attachment requiring up to 200 hp. It is well suited to rough terrain, slopes and banks as well as soft soil conditions where low ground pressure is required.
The upper assembly is built on a solid steel 32 mm (1.25 in) turntable and mounted to a long-life forestry undercarriage. The wide, high clearance carbody enables the machine to negotiate tough terrain and the long track frames provide excellent stability and a comfortable ride.
All Tigercat mulcher carriers are designed to operate in high ambient temperatures and applications where there is a great deal of airborne debris. The machines are equipped with automatic variable speed hydraulically driven fans with an automatic reversing cycle to clean debris from the coolers.
