This Fabtek FT153 is a processor harvester — sometimes referred to as a harvester-processor — a purpose-built forestry machine designed to fell, delimb, and cut trees to length in a single pass. Fabtek is a manufacturer with roots in the forestry equipment industry, known for producing robust harvesting and processing machinery suited to demanding timber operations.
This 2003 machine is offered in used condition from Michigan, USA, with 9,000 original hours recorded. Power comes from a John Deere 6068T engine, which the seller reports runs well. The unit comes equipped with a Fabtek Model 240 processing head, a dedicated attachment that handles delimbing and bucking directly in the field.
The boom is fitted with a squirt extension, which provides additional reach for processing trees at greater distances without repositioning the machine — a practical advantage in dense or challenging stand conditions. The undercarriage is fitted with 24-inch double-grouser pads and is reported to be at 60 percent remaining condition, giving buyers a clear picture of the wear remaining on the running gear. The seller confirms that all systems are functional.
The machine ships freight on board from Pennsylvania. The listing price is $89,000.
