About this machine
This 2008 Deere 648H is a used logging skidder — sometimes referred to as a grapple skidder — a purpose-built piece of forestry equipment designed to drag or carry felled trees from the cutting area to a landing for further processing. John Deere is one of the most widely recognised names in agricultural and construction equipment, and its forestry machines are used by logging and timber operations around the world.
This skidder is equipped with a cab fitted with air conditioning, providing the operator with a climate-controlled environment during long shifts in demanding conditions. Power is transmitted through a torque converter transmission, which smooths power delivery under heavy load and is well suited to the stop-and-go cycle of skidding timber across rough terrain.
The machine carries a dual-function grapple, the standard attachment for this class of skidder, allowing the operator to pick up and secure bunches of logs without leaving the cab. It is also fitted with a winch, which expands the machine's capability by allowing it to reach logs on steep or difficult terrain where the grapple alone may not suffice. The combination of both attachments makes this a versatile configuration for varied logging conditions.
Running gear consists of 30.5 tires, a large-diameter fitment appropriate for forestry applications, providing the flotation and traction needed on soft, uneven forest floors. This machine is located in Wisconsin, USA, and is offered at $65,001.
