Description

• Very special and complete forestry machine built from the ground up based on the Kockum 821.
• This is a machine that has undergone an extensive and time-consuming construction project over several years, where significant resources have been invested in the construction, adaptations and technical solutions.
• The machine is not a traditional restoration, but a further developed and modernized machine with a number of proprietary solutions. Among other things, the winch, an Igland 8002, has been converted from chain drive to direct drive and mounted submerged for optimal function and operational reliability.
• At the rear, the machine is equipped with a lift and lower boom, based on the Igland shear, and it is prepared for the installation of a timber crane in the waist. The hydraulic system has been greatly upgraded compared to the original machine, with significantly higher capacity, which gives better performance in practical work.
• The operator's station has been designed from the ground up with a focus on comfort and functionality. The electric clutch and brake are operated directly from the armrest of the operator's seat, in addition to separate controls in the cabin for clutch, brake and winch. This provides excellent control and flexibility in work.
• The machine is solid and well thought out, with a powerful front cutter, rough dimensions and chains on all wheels that provide very good mobility in the forest.
• It includes pictures documenting both the construction and the finished result, as well as videos of the machine both in use and during construction:
