875 Logger advances to E-series

-

TIGERCAT’S 875E LOGGER INTRODUCES SEVERAL NEW FEATURES, including an updated operator station, two undercarri­age options, and various grapple configurat­ions to tailor the machine to specific needs.

This multi-purpose carrier has two boom options for loading or processing applicatio­ns. The machine can be equipped with the Tigercat FPT N67 Non-certified, Tier 4f or Stage V engine, producing 210 kW (282 hp).

The undercarri­age is designed and built to withstand rigorous, fulltime forest duty applicatio­ns. Two options are available. The F7-150 undercarri­age is standard. The larger footprint F7-162 undercarri­age provides additional stability for heavy timber applicatio­ns.

The 875E can be configured as a loader equipped with various power clam, butt-n-top, live heel, pulpwood and log grapple options. The carrier can also be configured as a high-capacity processor capable of running large harvesting heads in demanding duty cycles.

The spacious cabin has a new operator’s seat with built-in heating. Controls are now integrated into both sides of the joystick pods, eliminatin­g the need for any bolt-on control pods. The optimally positioned controls and a large touchscree­n display improve ergonomics and machine monitoring. Reduced in-cab noise levels help the operator enjoy the auxiliary audio input port, Bluetooth audio and hands-free calling. Additional new features include a standard equipped rearVIEW camera system, emergency stop button, and a key FOB to turn on exterior lights remotely when entering the cab in the dark.

Some of the many advantages of the 875E over excavator conversion­s include better service access, higher cooling capacity, a better operating environmen­t, more robust undercarri­age components and efficient hydraulic circuits. The result is higher production, uptime and fuel efficiency.
