FOREST machinery manufacturer Waratah has unveiled the new generation of its HTH618C harvester head.
The HTH618C Series-III is described as offering increased productivity, reliability, uptime and more. With a variety of new features paired with a compact and durable design, this agile thinning head is well-suited for mixed diameters, bosses at the New Zealand-based firm say.
Brent Fisher, product marketing manager for Waratah, said: “The HTH618C Series-III is highlighted by a new valve that delivers more responsiveness and operating efficiency. This Series-III model delivers what our customers expect and need from Waratah.
“Additionally, with new twin diameter measuring and improved hose routing, servicing and guarding, we’re looking forward to delivering another head that is truly built to work.”
The HTH618C Series-III features twin lower delimb arms and a high-performance valve to ensure superior delimbing with agile and responsive log control, to tackle a wide range of harvesting jobs. The maximum delimb opening of 660 mm can handle larger stems.
With a new valve that simplifies serviceability, the HTH618C Series-III features enhanced valve cover assembly and easier access to make quick work of servicing. Likewise, hose protection helps keep the head running and increases durability.
The Waratah HTH618C Series-III is currently available to customers in Europe, the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Asia Pacific, Brazil and Latin America.
