The Harvestline is a guyless interlocked grapple yarder that can disengage interlock for gravity logging. Built on a log loader or excavator platform, it delivers exceptional stability and mobility for fast road changes—bringing the yarder to the wood, not the wood to the yarder.

  • Industry-leading control system for fast, smooth grapple yarding
  • Powers carriage past the belly – Interlock mode moves carriage beyond the skyline belly
  • Superior carriage control – Power out control for precise positioning

INTERLOCK BENEFITS

  • Flexible tailhold positioning – Tailhold above the yarder using a mobile tailhold on existing roads
  • Enhanced reach in gravity/shotgun logging – Power the carriage out in interlock mode to access difficult cutlines
  • Superior stem accumulation – Excellent in-and-out control for accumulating multiple handfell stems in gravity/shotgun logging

CLEANUP EFFICIENCY

Precision positioning – Lift the boom and shift over 5+ feet to pick up stems, then return to position.

This eliminates the need for counterrotating tracks or tossing the carriage to reach stems outside the skid road.

OPERATIONAL ADVANTAGES

  • No guylines required
  • No guyline stumps needed
  • No counter-rotation necessary to face tracks toward the logging area
