Overview

With independent knife arms, the 570 harvesting head excels in tough timber with large limbs and poor stem form. Independent knife and wheel arm improve stem contact. This results in superior feeding, delimbing, measuring and debarking, especially in sub-optimal stem form conditions.

Versatility

The 570 has optional hydraulic knife timing for easier picking in roadside processing applications.

A choice of harvesting or processing front knife arms are available for various applications.

Optional Fixed Wrist

The 570 is available with an optional fixed 340 degree rotating wrist. Wrist float allows the head to easily align to the tree for felling and to more easily follow the tree during feeding. The operator can override for positive wrist control to position or manipulate the tree as required for control felling and large limb trimming.

Durable Construction

Strong components, large bushings and pins, and durable construction throughout result in less downtime and higher production.
