The new 610H skidder is a compact, economically efficient grapple skidder, ideal for contractors who recognise the quality and reliability of the Tigercat-TCi brand. This machine excels in low-volume harvesting operations and is ideal for high-value selective-felling extractions. With precise engineering and thoughtful design, the 610H offers an optimal solution for those who need a durable, effective tool to manage their forestry projects. Its size and capabilities make it a valuable addition to any contractor’s fleet, ensuring outstanding performance even in challenging environments.
The Tigercat FPT N6.7 engine delivers 151 kW (202 hp), which a robust hydrostatic driveline harnesses effectively. This driveline is meticulously engineered to balance operational speed and tractive effort, ensuring the machine can handle demanding tasks efficiently and reliably.
The machine is equipped with a 1,39 square metre (15 square foot) grapple and 620H sized axles for added durability.
The operator’s cabin is simplified compared with the other H-series machines. Rather than Tigercat’s signature 220-degree Turnaround seat, the 610H is fitted with a fixed position seat angled at 30 degrees or an optional two-position mechanically actuated Turnaround seat.
